Islamabad, Dec 9 (IBNS): Spinner Mohammad Hafeez is traveling to England in the middle of next week to have his bowling action assessed under Dr. Paul Hurrion, Bio mechanist expert and Carl Crowe, bowling coach who has worked successfully with Sunil Naraine.
Azher Mahmood, Pakistan national team’s bowling coach, who is already in England, would be present during the assessment of Hafeez’s bowling action.
"After the assessment both the experts would devise a remedial work action plan that would be handed over to Azher Mahmood for implementation in Pakistan. Azher Mahmood and IBARC comprising of Ali Zia, Sajjad Akber, Salim Jaffer and Aleem Dar would then work with Mohammad Hafeez under the guidelines given by the Paul and Carl for correctness of his bowling action.
