Srinagar, May 18: Former India opener Virender Sehwag has made a big statement about his arch enemy on the field former Pakistan pacer Shoaib Akhtar, questioning laters bowling action.
Sehwag said Pakistani pacer “used to jerk his elbow” and “knew he was chucking too”.
Sehwag made the big statement during the third episode of ‘Home of Heroes’ on Sports18.
Sehwag said that while it was easy to pick the ball when Brett Lee was bowling because his “hand came down straight,” he could never guess with Shoaib Akhtar as he didn’t know where the hand and ball would come from.
“Shoaib knows he used to jerk his elbow; he knew he was chucking too. Why would ICC ban him otherwise?” Sehwag said to Sports18.
“Brett Lee’s hand came down straight, so it was easy to pick the ball. But with Shoaib, you could never guess where the hand and the ball will come from.”
