Pakistan spinner Saeed Ajmal has revealed that he has developed a new delivery, which he will unleash against England next year.
Ajmal - has a trick up his sleeve.
The off-spinner has been practicing the "top secret" delivery for some time but insisted he will only unleash it when the time is right.
"I didn't bowl it (in the World Cup) because I wanted to stick with my best and most reliable deliveries in such a high profile tournament," Ajmal told PakPassion.
"I'm saving it for the series against England."
Ajmal came under the microscope during Pakistan's tour to the West Indies earlier in the year, with some of the local commentators questioning the legitimacy of his action. Fellow slow bowler Mohammad Hafeez too came in for the same criticism.
"They can say what they want but the ICC has cleared our actions and of course umpires and referees are there too," Ajmal said of his detractors.
"It's within the rules. As far as Hafeez is concerned, he does not even bowl the doosra. He bowls a very good delivery that goes straight on and batsmen find hard to read.
"Commentators can say all they want, but all those who have been cleared by the ICC are still bowling. Harbhajan Singh and Johan Botha have had their actions queried in the past and are still bowling. I really don't know why they keep targeting us."
