Now tell me he isn't a chucker?!

[Simbazz]

Andrew, its tested in Australia isn't it?

 

[Gilly Fan]

Im a Hampshire fan and even i think that Warne's a cheat!

Duh, because he's taken illegal drugs... But I'll still love the guy as a cricketer, whether he be a cheat or not. And I'm sure some people think the same about Murali.

Andrew, its tested in Australia isn't it?

Yes, at a university in Perth.

It's doesn't matter how much it's bent as long as it doesn't STRAIGHTEN by any more than 15 degrees.

 

[Hooper]

Yes, just not your opinions. [ On whether I give a rat's ass about scientific evidence]

Iam not conceding that Murali is legal, but Iam not going to comment any more on this matter - people are just taking it too far. He clearly throws in matches. That scientific crap was done during different conditions, he was in a lab thingy and was able to bowl however slow and at whatever rate he wanted. He wouldn't have bowled how he does in a game.

He doesn't chuck. There i've told you.

You're clearly just jealous that he's going to overtake Warne's record. Now put your toys back in your pram and just accept that he's legal, or he wouldn't be playing.

This keeps coming up and will always come up. Hooper, you can't defy Science, I've always thought Murali was clear and I've always thought he's been harshly treated, anyone heard what Bishan Bedi has said lately? Called him a shot putter iirc.

And that he will get 1,000 wickets which should count as run outs. I find it more funny than anything.

You don't know who Bishan Bedi is Gilly Fan?

Nope... Who is he/she?

Legendary India spinner who's stats don't do him enough justice from the small amount i've seen of him;

If your refusing to comment anymore just because most people don't agree with you then what was the point in creating the thread?

Murali is probably going to sue him for defamation. I wouldn't take Bishan Bedi seriously. He tends to call anyone who has taken more wickets than him, a chucker.

It has been scientifically proved that Murali isn't a chucker so I don't see any point in arguing against it unless you have some valid scientific proof.

Just to show off a picture.

It is a shame that with the possibility of him altering his action in the lab always there, his name will never truly be cleared.

However, as long as Marlon Samuels is allowed to bowl his 80mph quicker ball, noone else should even be questioned of chucking the ball.

 

[Almost_Austwick]

With all the best will in the world I'm sure that anyone would be affected (somewhat) by having to bowl under lab conditions. You can be sure though that the guys doing the testing would have done everything in their powers to make sure that he was bowling as closely as possible to his normal action -otherwise what's the point in them being there?

Even if they were able to prove 101% beyond doubt that his action was legal in all aspects someone would still call him a cheat.
