Saeed Ajmal Makes You Laugh So Much It’s Unbelievable – Shoaib Malik

When asked about the infamous catch he missed during the ODI against West Indies at the Dubai International Stadium, Malik said he and Saeed Ajmal were caught in a state of confusion.

“It’s one of those things that no matter how many times you discuss it, it still makes you laugh. I go into that phase. He was sitting there with his hands representing a flower. When he tried to take the catch, the ball was completely away from his hands. My mistake was that I should have said Yes to that catch, but when I saw him fold his hands like a flower, I felt it was too easy. It was a dolly and that Saeed would catch it,” said Malik.

“So when that catch was put down, I asked him ‘Why didn’t you take that catch?’. He said ‘I folded my hands like that because I was getting ready to take it in case you drop it. I was like ‘Boss, I had let it go already’. Saeed, everyone knows, is a wonderful chap. He makes you laugh so much it’s unbelievable,” Malik added.
