Is Jasprit Bumrah a chucker?

[Spark]

Envy is a big part of it but there's definitely a portion of Facebook boomer fans in Australia (and probably elsewhere, I wouldn't know as well) who think that basically any unconventional action is throwing, with the probability of it being throwing going up by like 95% if it's a non-white bowler.

 

[Burgey]

The shape his arm gets into is disgusting. He's almost like one of those novelty acts that you saw on late night tv at weekends that would freak you out with shoulders,elbows or knees that would do freaky **** and when you'd a few beers it would make you feel ill.

Makes you feel ill when he’s taken 6/20 after about an hour and a half, I can tell you now.

Got that to come in about 6 months.

Muralitharan didn't flex his arm more than 45 degrees

Yeah, maxed out at about 41 iirc.

I remember him being told not to bowl the doosra because it exceeded the limit but he kept doing it and took **** knows how many with it (though none in or against Australia, obviously). Bloke’s record is a travesty.

Mate enjoy it, because the guy is a genius. Best bowler I’ve ever seen

Prove it.

 

[Burgey]

Prove it.

Prove it didn’t

look, murali seems a lovely guy, and it’s not his fault the authorities let him cheat with that diabolical action. Probably second only to Ryan Crouser as the world’s best shot putter

Doesn't prove anything.

What about others who exceeded the allowed limit at that time?

 

[Burgey]

They didn’t exceed it. Was all a furphy to allow him to play.

The cricketing world couldn’t cope with SL continually bitching about it on top of the perennial Indian whingeing about every decision that goes against them so they let him play rather than have their ears bleed into eternity. Sad but true.

Murali would have been a better leggie than Warne. No chinks in that action.

 

[Burgey]

He should have done it then instead of having the asterisk next to his record for all time

Two very convincing proofs that Murali flexed him elbow more than 15 degrees. Good job!

 

[Burgey]

Thank you.

 

[Johan]

90 wickets in 11 matches sounds is too good tho.

Give it up bro, any pacer solos

 

[sayon basak]

Thank you.

My pleasure!

 

[sayon basak]

I will, when a pacer takes 90 wickets in 11 matches in a calendar year.

Get a modern spinner who can average less than 24 without minnow bashing and we'll talk

 

[Gnske]

He's the Chris Green of India

Tbf if pacers were allowed to basically javelin throw the ball like murali did then they’d do it in a hand canter

Another excellent proof that Murali was a chucker.
Anything more you have to say?
