Legendary all-rounder Kapil Dev today said that there should be no "ambiguity" in the suspect bowling action rules and asked the International Cricket Council to settle the issue "once and for all" instead of allowing it to linger on for long.Kapil, who was in Jalandhar as the chief guest at the Farmtrack Hockey tournament, said the delay in settling the issue has resulted in the players, found with suspect bowling action, undergoing the "ordeal once in every two years." "I would appreciate if such controversial issues are not allowed to linger on and should be settled at the earliest so that the players could concentrate on their game instead of having to worry about other issues." On the ICC finding fault in ace off-spinner Harbhajan Singh's action, Kapil said "there is nothing wrong in saying that there is any fault in a bowler's action if the concerned authorities feel so. "But the ambiguity over such issues must be cleared at the earliest for the benefit of everyone." Kapil also said that such matters must not trouble the cricketers as they were part and parcel of one's career. "Had they pointed out at me for a suspect action, at least I would not have been a bothered man and even offered myself for any test," he said. in-depth coverage > Indian Cricket Team's Bangladesh Tour > |
