Pakistan8217;s tearaway fast bowler Shoaib Akhktar may have put in a fiery performance in front of his home crowd in his 100th one-day international yesterday but Indian captain Saurav Ganguly8217;s comments on his bowling action may leave him fuming. The Rawalpindi Express generated a lot of pace to return with figures of 9-1-49-3 to help Pakistan win the second one-dayer against India by a slender 12-run margin but his bowling action again came up for discussion.

Asked whether he felt that all of Akhtar8217;s deliveries were legal, Ganguly countered, 8216;8216;What do you think, watching on TV? I think we all know the answer, don8217;t we?8217;8217;

Although Ganguly left it to the media to make its own judgment, it was bound to fuel yet another debate on Akhtar8217;s controversial bowling action.
