Pakistan's Saeed Ajmal is viewing next year's Test series against England as a contest between himself and Graeme Swann to decide who is the world's best off-spinner. The 33-year-old Ajmal, Pakistan's leading bowler in all forms of the game recently, said he was preparing a surprise delivery for the English team who top the world rankings.
"Any spinner today worth his salt has to have lot of variation in his armoury to survive the grind of playing in all three formats of the sport," Ajmal told Reuters on Thursday.
"But to me Test matches remain the ultimate challenge." Ajmal said. "Swann is a tremendous bowler and I admire him a lot. I have learnt watching him bowl. You watch closely he bowls the off- break with three variations. I will love the challenge of trying to do better than him in the coming series," Ajmal said. Ajmal also said he was working hard on a special delivery as a surprise weapon.
