Banned off-spinner Saeed Ajmal says he is confident of playing for Pakistan again despite his struggles since returning with a remodelled action.
Ajmal took 178 Test and 183 one-day wickets before he was banned in September 2014 for an illegal action.
But after being cleared to play again and recalled to the Pakistan squad in April, he has since been dropped.
"I'm confident that I can make a comeback for my country and prove my critics wrong," he said.
"I feel that I'm not a spent force when it comes to international cricket and as a bowler I still have something to offer my country."
Ajmal, who re-signed for Worcestershire in February as he began his comeback, was picked for the two-Test series against Bangladesh in April.
But having played only two ODIs and a T20, he produced one wicket in 22.3 overs and conceded runs at 6.57 per over.
Ajmal told PakPassion.net  that despite rumours that he had been sacked by Worcestershire, his contract would run out on 4 September allowing him to return to play in Pakistan.
"There was no sacking or early termination of my contract as some media are reporting. My contract with Worcestershire is until 4th September as I will be leaving for Hajj the day after I return to Pakistan next week," he added.
"Worcestershire had wanted me to play for them for the whole season but I had decided and agreed with Worcestershire prior to signing the contract this season that I wouldn't be able to play the whole season and would return to Pakistan prior to the end of the season."

Mixed emotions.Heart says he shouldn't play again,but brain says Pak desperately need him to surface back to top.He provides a sort of competition between teams.
Maybe this is what they all an actual "confusion".

He has not been out of the game for too long. So I definitely think he can stage a comeback

Its not just about that.he will have to bowl with the thought running behind that he might be suspended across anytime.He has been under the scanner quite a few times.

He should once for all re-work action and instead of concentrating on new deliveries like Teesra,he could re work his basics and become a better bowler from there.

Have you seen Ajmal bowl with his new modified action? I have seen him four times so far this year for Worcestershire and he was poor on all four occassions. His average in the county championship is 48.50 and not much better in the Royal London Cup (40.12). His ineffectiveness should not come as a surprise given that he can no longer pelt.

LanceKraigg’s time is up. He has never truly moved on as a player. Despite being captain and senior batsmen we will lose nothing with investing in a rookie.

He has given his service as an honest and wholehearted performer and would leave with my heartfelt thanks for his contribution.

ByronViv richards was the best batsman of
“his era” but he wasn’t better than Brian Lara whether it’s numbers wise or just plain batting talent and skill
Lara is on a level nobody else is on.
