Yeah but Saqlain is old , I am talking about the future .
Ajmal is 34 and Saqlains 35. A year doesn't make Saqlain 'old' and Ajmal a future youngster.
Basically, imagine you've never had sex before. Never even seen a female body before and your hands are stuck together with super glue behind your back. The hottest, most stunning woman throws herself at you, but she demands you rubber up first. The packet is sealed, with selophane, and you have just 60 seconds before she wanders off. I don't know if that helps at all, but it would probably be a fairly accurate representation of your complete and utter confusion and frustration in trying to pick, read, play and score runs off a world class spinner.
It's interesting though because Saqlain is a perfectly good example of a player not enjoying a career of steady or predictable growth. He was an excellent offie, then with the doosra he seemed unplayable; but after a while batsmen understood what he was bowling and the decline was imminent. Disguising the doosra begun to dictate how he bowled off breaks. He lost some of the qualities that got him wickets without a doosra. Spinners have to protect their stock ball from their variations; it's true for leggies every bit as much as doosra bowlers. Sometimes, once you lose your loop, you just can't get it back.I said Saqlain "old" because now he don't cares anything about himself , his fatigue, his improvement on deliveries everything has finshed of him , I know "old" was the wrong word to use .
Imagine most of the seamers you think are fairly nippy in whatever cricket you play in. Then imagine that ball is actually drifting through the air, dipping into a bounce and then ripping off the pitch... Oh, and it might go either way and you won't have a clue until it spins.
