Saeed Ajmal made his International debut at an unusual age of 30, during the 2008 Asia Cup. He was included in the Pakistani squad in a crucial encounter against India in which he bowled 10 overs at an economy rate of 4.70. Ajmal picked up his first international wicket when he sent Yusuf Pathan home for a 'duck' in the same game. The veteran spinner would have been more than thankful when he finally received the 'big break' after being overlooked by the Pakistani selectors for over a decade through which he served the domestic circuit picking up over 230 first class wickets in 72 matches including fifteen 5-wicket hauls. Saeed Ajmal made an immediate impression with his subtle variations, fearless to use the doosra. But his career took off with a series of ODI performances that confused Australia in Dubai and Abu Dhabi, he gave away few runs and his doosra was nigh-on unreadable. The ICC called him for his action, though it was cleared soon after. The pressure didn't get to him and immediately after, he played a vital role in Pakistan's drive to the 2009 World Twenty20 title, regularly bottling up the middle overs with Shahid Afridi. He ended the joint second-highest wicket-taker in the tournament, with an exemplary economy rate as batsmen around the world struggled to pick a big turning doosra or even cope with his changes in flight, pace and angle. Consistent performances in the ODI version have quickly earned him a reputation for choking the runs in the middle overs with clever variations.
