LAHORE, Dec 7: The University of Western Australia has reiterated its earlier findings regarding Shoaib Akhtar’s bowling action calling it peculiar anatomical characteristic that leads to the erroneous perception of throwing.

Pakistan Cricket Board spokesman said on Friday  that  the report of the university had been received by the board in which nothing was new.

 Shoaib  Akhtar’s bowling action was reported for the third time during the Sharjah tri-series earlier last month by South African match referee Denis Lindsay.

On it, the International Cricket Council had advised the PCB to hire Michael Holding  for rectifying  Shoaib’s action and to submit a report by Feb 7.

However the PCB decided to sent the footage of Shoaib’s bowling to the University of Western Australia again which had already examined the case and cleared him with a report that the bowling arm of the controversial pacer was deformed.

Announcing the next action of the PCB its director Munawar Ahmad Rana said that the board was considering the fresh report of the university and was in touch with the ICC to proceed with the matter in a logical and amicable way, so that Shoaib Akhtar could continue to bowl without any further undue pressure as soon as possible.
