So we are now to ignore all statements made, unquestionably understandable, by all non-English native speakers on the basis that this will later be "misinterpreted" on the basis on his language skills? He said it, you don't have to add anything into it to understand!!!
It seems strange also that, the evidence of the report that is quoted from 2009, has never been made public. It is the ICC's opinion that we wouldn't understand it, yet George Dobell was shown it in Dubai and is now saying it proves Ajmal doesn't chuck!!
So I take it that means that George Dobell is international crickets first journalist that specialises in Biometrics, because he understood the report, right???? And that Dave Richardson is the ICC's first biometric specialist in his role at the ICC?? Talent bloke he is, qualified lawyer, 42 tests for South Africa as a batsman-wicketkeeper, and biometric expert!!! Must be talented to have grasped such a complex issue that us mere mortals would never get.
We are also told Ajmal has a natural arm bend as a result of an accident while on Pakistan duty (no details are available) giving us an illusion... considering he was picked in 2009 for Pakistan, and was called on debut, I wonder how such an abnormality occurred in his body without preventing him from appearing in that test. Not many people have an accident that leaves them with a deformity for the rest of their life, and are able to use the limb on the same day in a test match. At this point we are told, "oh well, he was probably born with it", so if he was born with it, why are people saying its the accident? Another example of the Pakistan team not following the same scripted lie?
It is also quite suprising how many of these people called have problems biologically that cause them to look like they chuck..... it seems to be a great off spinner, you need to have had your arm run over by a car. Its not suspicious at all.....

We then have the ICC commenting that he has made no obvious changes to his action to prompt re-testing... even though Ajmal himself has said he has introduced two new types of delivery to his armoury....
Seems he is gleaning a rather large share of any benefit in doubt.
