imageFormer PCB chairman Zaka Ashraf uttered that India is doing conspiracy against the Pakistani bowlers to weaken Pakistani cricket team.

Zaka, in this regard, cited first spin wizard Saeed Ajmal’s bowling action and then that of Hafeez, who had emerged as a premier all-rounder in world cricket, were declared illegal by the ICC right on the eve of the 2015 World Cup. He said, “It was all conspiracy hatched against Pakistan cricket by the Indian lobby to get two of our key spinners suspended before the World Cup,” local media reported.

“And surprisingly, the PCB preferred to send their bowlers for bio-mechanics test to Chennai despite the fact that the same kind of labs are working in Australia and South Africa also. Though England also has this facility but I have doubt over the results of their lab too,” he added.

Ashraf also feels that pleasing Indian Cricket Board to have a bi-lateral series with Pakistan is not a good idea to revive international cricket in Pakistan. And, despite doing everything in favor of BCCI, the PCB could not get any favourable result from them.

“I don’t know for which benefit the PCB is pleasing the BCCI when the latter has been taking all steps to ruin Pakistan cricket,” said Zaka in an interview to a local media. He also urged the Pakistan Cricket Board to give priority to self-respect instead of pleasing the BCCI.
