Tribune Take: It's Ajmal vs England
Ajmal's exemplary performance lived up to his pre-game talk of a mystery ball up his sleeve.
In today’s episode of the Tribune Take, we look at Pakistan off-spinner Saeed Ajmal's career-best seven for 55 in the England innings, where they managed to reach 192.
Bilal Memon, senior sub-editor, Sports desk, The Express Tribune says Ajmal's exemplary performance lived up to his pre-game talk of having a "mystery ball" up his sleeve. However, Memon notes that the responsibility for the effective offence cannot just fall on Ajmal's shoulders, as the other bowlers including the fast bowlers had to pitch in too.
Memon also says Ajmal is a strong character and Bob Willis' accusations against his bowling action won't have much of an affect on the off-spiner.
