Muralitharan - Finger or Wrist Spinner?

[Richard]

Of course, how silly of me, I forgot how much you knew about the art. My humblest apologies.

Well "the art" isn't exactly rocket-science to understand, even if it nearly is to bowl.

 

[Richard]

Just read Dickinson's posts. Oh dear.

No, I'm only 21, most 21-year-olds haven't even considered marriage, and whenever I feel like it.

LOL, sorry man. No offence, but you sound like a nagging senior.

 

[Richard]

If my memory serves correctly yours is the 8th comment of that nature in the last 6 years since I started posting on cricket forums...

Hope that provides some way of consolation...

Most 21 year olds are also convinced they know nearly everything.

No, they're not - given that "finger" and "wrist" are body-parts, and the genres are named after body parts.

Fingerspinners use virtually no wrist in their bowling (any more than they use their feet and knees by walking in), wristspinners use both to equal level.

It could be said that Rich loves bolding fragments of sentences, and is unafraid to do so at any time.

Bull**** are they.

I've had this "he'll mellow as he grows older" nonsense ever since I was 15, and the fact that it still hasn't happened should tell you something.

Well, yes, it could.

Point being?

I assume that first sentence is a little mixed - and I stand by that comment.

I think the fact it hasn't happened yet should tell you more than it tells me.

 

[Richard]

It tells me it ain't gonna.

And it should tell you the same thing, astonishingly enough...

 

[Son Of Coco]

It tells me it ain't gonna.

And it should tell you the same thing, astonishingly enough...

There are other explanations for that...astonishingly enough.

 

[Richard]

Other explanations for what? The fact that it ain't gonna change? Or the fact that you think it will?

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

So, that Murali character. Quite the bowler.

 

[Richard]

You've noticed how near enough every thread evolves away from it's title-topic?

 

[marc71178]

More pointedly in the last week or so than it has for a long time...

 

[Richard]

My presence does indeed cause more discussion, yes.

 

[marc71178]

Actually I was thinking more of the fact that you're the one who's dragging just about every discussion off track and rapidly downhill.

 

[Richard]

Bull**** am I.

My presence may contribute, but I am not close to being the instigator in the majority of cases... and even if I was, it would hardly matter.

murali uses his wrist!

murali is a wrist spinner no doubt about it. cause he is double jointed in wrist he can flick the ball out of his hand with alot of spin without bending his elbow so much!hes not a chucker!he bowls within the degrees of a spinner!so i dont see problem!my answer is that hes a wrist spinner

 

[Ikki]

Whatever he bowls, he is a legend.
