Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has requested the International Cricket Council (ICC) to conduct an official bio-mechanics test of all-rounder Mohammad Hafeez’s bowling action in the first week of February.
Pakistan’s ace all-rounder, Hafeez, had been suspended from bowling when his bowling action exceeded the 15 degrees limit as set by the ICC for bowlers.
If cleared by the ICC, Hafeez would be able to bowl at the World Cup 2015 starting from Feb 14 in Australia and New Zealand.
Hafeez had been reported for a suspect action by the umpires during the first Test against New Zealand in November last year. He was sent for his first bio-mechanics test to Loughborough’s National Cricket Performance Centre on Dec 7. He failed to clear the test.
Pakistan has already lost their top bowler Saeed Ajmal due to the same reason.
