LAHORE: (Dunya News) – Foremer Test cricketer Mudassar Nazar has on Thursday taken over as Academies Director for a term of three years. He said on the occasion that the bowling action of 70 bowlers had been found suspicious during his previous tenure at the academy, reported Dunya News.
Holding a press conference at Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore, Nazar said that the academy was ten years behind its time. He said that the job of the academy was to provide new cricketers, especially off-spinners and all-rounders.

“There were 70 bowlers with suspicious bowling actions during my previous tenure but they could not be banned due to poor system”, said Nazar.
