Summary The reaction came after Ajmal alleged ICC of supporting Indian bowlers.

LAHORE (Web Desk) – Frustrated by the statements of Pakistani star player Saeed Ajmal, Indian media on Tuesday strongly criticized him for alleging International Cricket Council (ICC) of supporting Indian bowlers.

The all time furious extremist Indian media are of the opinion that why Ajmal has only named Indian bowlers in the whole cricketing world.

Instead of taking the Pakistani bowler’s statements as challenge, the Indian authorities bashed him, terming his point of view as accusations. Top most Indian newspapers burst into anger over off-spinner’s claims.



Zeenews while showing rage branded Pakistani star player as ‘Discarded Saeed Ajmal’.



A famous paper Indiatimes addressed Ajmal as a  banned Pakistani bowler  which further added fuel to agitation.



Oneindia reported that off-spinner Saeed Ajmal said India s Harbhajan Singh and R Ashwin are "chuckers" and blamed ICC for being silent on the duo.

Not only print, but Indian electronic media also sparked hostility against Pakistan by holding up the case of Saeed Ajmal.



In another screen shot, Times Now displayed two windows, captioning ‘banned from bowling’ and ‘accuses Indian spinners’.



Height of aggression was erupted when ‘Pak chucker rakes up controversy’ was demonstrated on screen. Seriously, that was something unexpected.



Talking exclusively to Dunya News in Cricket Deewangi show, off-spinner Saeed Ajmal blasted on ICC over its double-standards, saying that it is destroying the art of spin.

‘ICC is only after Pakistani bowlers but doesn’t check the actions of Indian spinners like Harbhajan Singh and Ravi Chandran Ashwin’, he said.


Ajmal said that ICC is habitual of banning every Pakistani spinner who starts performing well.

“When Bilal Asif wasn’t able to get any wicket against Zimbabwe, it was fine. But when he got 5 wickets, his action was declared suspicious”, complains off-spinner.

While demanding a bowling test for Harbhajan Singh, the ‘spin magician’ claimed that Singh’s action would also have over 15-degree bend. He went on to claim that Ashwin bowls illegal deliveries but ICC closes eyes on them.


The disheartened Ajmal also lashed out at Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) for not fighting his case on medical grounds before ICC.

Ajmal has been barred from international cricket due to a suspected action since September last year despite appearing in bowling test twice.
