Saeed Ajmal

Ajmal’s sudden rise to prominence since 2008 has been attributed by many people to the fact that he has an action which is not adhering to the Laws of the Game. Ajmal’s most potent weapon, his doosra was the delivery that was most often questioned, and Indian coach Darren Fletcher even once came out in the media declaring his displeasure at the fact that Ajmal was being allowed to get away, even without undergoing any tests, on a suspect action.
