You just went bananas at me for agreeing with you. And Phil didn't know I agreed with him, I'm looking around for the camera thinking this is set up. Fun times.

Thats well within the umpires call. But seriously think what would happen if we did hear "No ball".

I think that after the entire Muttiah Muralitharan chucking saga, umpires are extremely hesitant to call a bowler for chucking. I can't say I blame them, but I hope that they would call it if they believe they see it.

I don't think they can call it on the field anymore, it has to be referred to the umpires panel.

I offer you a challenge.  Get out in your local park, and bowl a ball with an arm extended like this bloke, straight, flexed, as his is as he runs in.

Don't change a thing about that, and see if without bending your elbow you can move your wrist as he does.

I can't.

No-one can bowl a ball at pace if they release the ball with an unbent elbow.

Now, I know that the MCC Rules allow some angle of bend, but is he at the edge of the envelope?  I'm not saying he is illegal.  I am saying I can't bowl a ball with a rigid, straight, hyper extended arm at the point of delivery.  The ball just flops out.


It's been a big pub discussion .... me not ever playing cricket except in the back yard & the odd social game - listened ... several blokes called him a chucker ... like Murali.... different action but still a chucker.


Get out in your back yard and try to bowl a ball with a totally stiff hyper-extended arm.  Test it yourself.


Too phukkin old.
