PCB set to send Ajmal for biomechanic test

Ajmal, who has been Pakistan’s top spinner for the last few years, was also suspended by the ICC from bowling in international cricket last month after failing an official test as per ICC rules. ‘Saeed (Ajmal) is very confident that he will be ready soon with a remodelled action for another independent biomechanic test,’ PCB chief operating officer Subhan Ahmad told PTI. ‘Saqlain Mushtaq and the team of experts who are working on Saeed’s bowling action have also given positive feedback. Once we get a go ahead from them we plan to send him for an independent analysis of his remodelled action,’ Ahmad said.

‘Saeed and Saqlain are very confident his remodelled action will ensure his bowling action is within the ICC permitted limit of 15 degrees. But we are anxious to see whether the remodelled action will have reduced his potency as a bowler or it will remain the same,’ he added.
