Yeah i believe the medical term is 'over eating lazy b*stard'
I dont know about the validity of his parents marriage but a medical condition is a medical condition. Think of all the little fat kiddies who cant play cricket because they are to fat and if they use diuretics to control their weight they will be victimised.SpaceMonkey said:Yeah i believe the medical term is 'over eating lazy b*stard'
Who tested Jermaine Lawson recently? Why were no rule changes recommended after his tests?
Why, when the University of WA tested Shabbir, did they not recommend that the tolerance level be set at 15 degrees for all bowlers? Why is it that these 'recommendations' are only made when Murali and Shoaib are tested? Do they feel that it's important to have the rules changed when only the highest profile bowlers are found to be in breach of them? Why is it that Shabbir has to change his action, but for Murali and Shoaib the only changes should come in the rules?

Shane Warne is a brilliant spin bowler with a chronic condition indeed - only it's called 'vanity'.
You truly take the biscuit, Scallywag

I might be wrong marc71178 but when asked too Murali was able to reduce the amount of bend from 14 deg to 10.2 deg. So if you allow him 10 deg tolerance how do you know when he extends that to 14 deg.marc71178 said:
So yes I think with his unorthodox action he could easily mask a throw if he allready has'nt.

cooked, not raw. Inzy only eats other cricketers if they have been charbroiled or at least sauteed in a white wine sauce, like fish.Craig said:

Marc, have you been drinking tonight? Surely if Scallywag is referring to a 14 degree straightening, he's referring to the doosra, and the recent tests on it. So what on earth are you talking about? That delivery IS illegal.marc71178 said:

As far as i can see because of Murali's deformity's the ICC have not strictly applied the usual rules concerning degree of flexibility, because Murali isn't for all purposes normal. Humans are not robots and are not identical which is why the ICC are being flexible until they look at other spinners' doosra's and try to interpret whether Murali's abnormality can account for the degree of flex.

Absolutely. Most guys who chuck can easily straighten back their arm when told, but Murali is different. He's unique in international cricket. There has to be some flexibility in the rules and furhter research needs to be done on his bowling in intense match conditions, where to get a wicket he'd give it that extra bit.twctopcat said:
