The Abu Dhabi Test took its toll on Ajmal. He has never held up so yearn for a wicket in a Test innings: his past longest hold up was 41.1 overs, in the first innings against England at Lord's in 2010 and he finished with figures of 2 for 126 from 44 overs. He remained wicketless in the second innings of the first Test with 49 overs, surrendering 115 runs, and needed to hold up an alternate 28.2 overs in Dubai to take his first wicket, making the stretch 77.2 overs.
There was an open deliberation of sorts in the changing area of the Sheikh Zayed Stadium before the first Test over resting Ajmal yet chief Misbah-ul-Haq voted out the other spinner Abdur Rehman and demanded staying with the veteran. In no way, shape or form has Ajmal been the wrong pick yet he didn't fire in time. Presumably, he wasn't given much help from the flip side, or as Ramiz Raja infers, he might have been "neutralised" well by the Sri Lanka batsmen.
Ajmal would like to rest, he has scarcely requested it. He needs to play each match and Pakistan would prefer not to drop him since he has been finishing great. He should be rested with his suspected hernia a year ago however specialists cleared him with a week's rest before the ODI arrangement in Scotland in May.
Saqlain Mushtaq, then again, made his Test presentation at 19 and turned into the fastest to 100 one-day-global wickets. His profession was harmed by knee damage and in nine years - in which he played 49 Tests and 169 Odis - his vocation was over. He made a last unsuccessful endeavor in 2004 to compel his route go into the Test side, against India in Multan, just to surrender 204 runs in 43 overs. Baffled with Ajmal's workload, Saqlain prompted him to enjoy a reprieve to abstain from getting exhausted.
