The International Cricket Council (ICC) ban on Pakistan leading all-rounder Mohammad Hafeez’s bowling action came as a shock to many fans. Hafeez, however, remains adamant to return stronger than ever.

The top all rounder in ODI cricket revealed in a tweet post that he was indeed ‘saddened’ with the ICC’s decision. However, he added that he is in no mood to get bogged down and will work ‘twice harder’ to get his bowling action fixed for his country.

Earlier, Hafeez's bowling action was deemed illegal by the ICC after he failed to clear bowling action test that was conducted on November 1 in England’s town Loughborough.

According to ICC, the assessment revealed that the majority of his deliveries exceeded the 15 degrees level of tolerance.
