Re: Any latest news about shabir ahmed

I don't understand all this, I mean if I want to throw a ball I can do it purposely means can mix with legal deliveries, then why can't these bowlers bowl correctly. Aur sonay pe sohaga PCB has ample money to waste on them.

And PCB wouldnt allow a chance to younger bowler like Niazi, Jamshed etc.

He might play for another year or so then he will be reported, and by that time Asif will be back :insha: :smiley:

Re: Any latest news about shabir ahmed

^ I hope he can maintain a consistent action this time. Last time it was cleared as well, but the problem was during the course of a match it would get worse.

With the absence of Shoaib and Asif, Shabbir would be a welcome addition. If only to keep Sami out. :)
