Ajmal Action Reported

[OverratedSanity]

you don't even need to intend to kill to be guilty of murder ffs

That's involuntary manslaughter, not murder.

"Bangladesh seamer Al-Amin Hossain has been reported for a suspect action following his team's ten-wicket loss to West Indies in the first Test in St Vincent "

'Intent' is central to way people view culpability, so nice paragraph harsh.

It certainly is when it's convenient for the point of view you wish to endorse, anyway.

As I submitted, I was being selective. Also as I submitted, I thought cheating and stealing were close enough to compare. Still do. Much closer than cheating and murder.

But yes, my words and idea can be improved upon.

Thank you

Haha, yes, but being your manner of being "selective" in this instance was just nonsense. It was akin to just choosing all of the evidence that supported your view, and then just ignoring all of the other evidence that contradicted that which you cited.

I'm pretty sure I could make a very strong case about the demerits of a particular player if I chose to be "selective" in respect of the material I identified as valid grounds for my analysis. I expect I could quite easily argue that Tendulkar was not very good player if I "selectively" discounted all of his innings where he scored more than 10 runs.

True Sledge, you could. I obviously don't think the selectivity was that awful.

Didn't expect him to get picked up.

 

[GGG]

Didn't expect him to get picked up.

3:17

 

[CarlsbergXpress]

Wow - what an unusual action! No surprise he's been reported.

 

[marc71178]

Here lies the entire problem about the process. How are the deliveries selected? On which basis? Have it been tested against bowlers with clean actions using same selection protocol for selection of deliveries?

These are questions needed to be answered.

No they're not, and you repeating it 75 times will not change that.

 

[marc71178]

A reasonable piece I thought;

I thought it was just an apologist trying to make excuses personally.

 

[NasserFan207]

So, he's banned, but does it mean anything? He was probably retiring after the world cup anyway, seems irrelevant unless they strip his record or some ****.

 

[91Jmay]

I'd like them to test and ban Jeets next, just to crush Athlai, Hendrix and Maximas.

I hope have a really uncomfortable itch on the bottom of your foot you can never scratch.

I doubt they can do that considering they were the ones who cleared him in the first place.

 

[Red]

I think they should retroactively test Dennis Lillee, declare his action illegal, and bring crashing down the entire Aussie cricket pantheon overnight. Nothing will be left.

Hey hey hey. His arm hair prevented him chucking. Everyone knows that,

3:17

Wow, to hell with the super-slomo and all the contraptions, that chuck at 3:17 was an absolute shocker.

 

[Howsie]

Accepting Kane's ban now then, Howsie?

As long as they take down Narine too. Yep sure.

Kyle Mills must surely be the next bowler picked up, biggest fast bowling chucker I've ever seen. A ban right before the World Cup starts would be nice.

Not playing tests has allowed him to slip under the radar. If he gets collared for a suspect action, I bet he'll announce his retirement 5 minutes later.

 

[Burgey]

That's involuntary manslaughter, not murder.

No it isn't. You can be recklessly indifferent to human life and be convicted of murder.

Mens rea bitch.
