I love it how he has Murali and Warne as equal #1. That's the best way to deal with the debate. Gold Walshy :cool:

Well according to Slater, Holding and Dean Jones are now converted Murali fans. Walsh is also fan, and Bradman was too. The anti Murali camp is quickly losing the battle.

Bah five people vs what? a few countries- as other people have said just because they are great players doesnt mean they know all

Actually im pretty sure that 75% of the cricketing world are convinced he does not chuck. I could name more if you really wanted.

He may or may not be a chucker. But do we need a new thread every time a cricketing great picks a side in this Murali issue?

Depends where you are.. Id say its a 75% skew in the other way
Id say more like 80%. every person i know that follows cricket thinks he chucks but arent we the biased people

well i thought i'd put my two cents in :D... i think that murali is a victim of a poor genetic make up,lol... its true that he does have a dodgy action but its only because he cant straighten his arm (apparently, i cant say i've ever fondled his elbow) i think that he does throw, but ofcourse not deliberately and i think that if he does have a legal action he is a better spinner then warney and statistics will show, he is very very dangerous and always looks like getting a wicket (unlike warne who is more defensive).... its true however that warne has done more for spin bowling then what murali has..

I THINK HE'S A CHUCKER! :D

Why is it bias?
do you understand the concept of bias ?
Bias is to either show favouritism/mistreatment towards one out a buncha people who are in the same boat/guilty of same thing.

Your propensity of calling Murali a chucker while not labelling McGrath,Gillespie,Pollock,Ntini,Kumble,etc. when ICC have concluded,based on scientific analysis, that Sarwan apart, all bowlers who took part in the ICC championship trophy chucked clearly shows bias AGAINST murali.
Why single out someone when everyone is guilty of the same crime ?
THAT, my friend, is called selectiveness and bias.

Well if he was sh1te no-one would bother victimising him :D . So on that his success is one of the reasons we victimise him.

He wouldnt need to be attacked if he was rubbish... Its the fact he has made a successful career, and a mockery of many batsmen, effectively through cheating..

same applies for McGrath, Pollock,Gillespie,Ntini, Kumble, Pathan,Vaas,Harmison,Flintoff etc etc etc.

So which begs the question- why are you singling out Murali ?

This is like having a nation of criminals but you prosecute only one.
clear bias and unfairness.
I suppose you wont mind if you are a soldier in a war and i pick on YOU and ONLY YOU for war crimes.
