The Chuckers Getting Called Out
In reply to Ridge Now, will all those board members, retract those cussing he got? Im trying to remember if i wuz ever on that donkey cart?!!!!
In reply to Ridge
They calling everybody except...........
I wonder why since his action is worse than some other bowlers who were reported recently.
In reply to BatQuake
They calling everybody except...........
Selectors better keep him away from tests, unless he'll be one of 2 spinners. I question whether his action can remain legal for 20 to 30 pvers in a day. They'll need him for the world cup, so no test
In reply to db
take your balls from Quakie mouth and call de name
They're going to go after Narine next, I think.
And guys like Shillingford will continue to have a problem.
interesting
Subrayen definitely throws it.Sucks because he's been our best spin prospect in donkeys years
Btw didn't some of you geniuses on here say there is no agenda by the ICC to get illegal actions out of the game ? Think some real genius said it was only because of one umpire ?Let met go dig out the archives and shame this dunce ...
Narine will never be on the chuckers' list. We will see.
I think the safest spinner will be Benn...
In reply to Norm
Why do you think so?
In reply to BatQuake
I was looking at Benn recently. i was surprised he looks like he's pelting too.
@RMc@
In reply to BatQuake
He does not have to pelt to get wickets.
In reply to Ridge
This has taken waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay tooooooooo LONG
Narine does not bowl a"doosra",he bowls a ball that moves away from the right handed batsman.Some commentators describe it as a leg-cutter,he therefore does not have to resort to bending his arm at the moment of delivery.Take a look at Ajmal,Murali,Shillingford,Senananyke,Saqlan and Hafeez,there may be others,but we will soon hear about them;those bowlers i mention were blatant pelters,Narine's arm looks the same when he bowls the off-break,as it does when he bowls the leg cutter,not a bloody doosra.
I forgot to mention Ashwin,he doesn't look too bad,but we'll soon find out,Narine safe like a bank.
In reply to granite
Safe like a bank? Since when are banks safe?
Banks have safety........deposit boxes. But banks being safe? Ummmmmmmm...........
In reply to Norm
Listen here, quite a number of the bowlers who have been reported recently have action which are not as 'bad' as his own.
It seems like now if your elbow has even a slight kink when bowling, you will be reported. But then, how comes ..... has not been reported in this new wave of reporting.
Have any Indian bowlers been reportedly recently? Is it also possible that if the BCCI likes you, then you may be somehow ignored even if your action is worse than others who have been reported?
In reply to BatQuake
No need to feign modesty here. We all know you mean "Narine", just as we all know that your gripe with Narine is really to make a case of Shilly being singled out unfairly.
Long story short - time will tell if Narine is being "protected by the BCCI", as you imply.
Even if he is, perchance, that would not change the history of Shilly's bowling one iota.
I suppose there is some kind of sadistic pleasure in the "crab in barrel" mentality that seeks comfort in universal failure.
Let's just hope that those that allowed Shilly to live in false hope do not similarly mislead others.
In reply to BatQuake
Yea,I have to agree,"safe like a bank",not safe these days,but yuh get my meaning.
In reply to Norm
Not really. My issue is that the one you have mentioned (not Shilly...the other person) appears to have a worse action than a number of bowlers who were reported recently.
Let's be true to what our eyes see. Al-Amin, Utseya, Hafeez and some of the others have actions which are no worse than........
So how comes ...... has not been reported in this recent wave of reportings?
In reply to granite
..........so you mean is only a matter of time before..........?
In reply to BatQuake
Great observation. Now, a little thinking would produce the answer.
Narine does not need to pelt!
Now, so as not to go around in circles, let me point out something. I never said Narine never pelts.
Shilly, on the other hand, is quite ordinary without pelting.
In reply to Norm
Aye Norm, take a look at this especially the slow motion replays and then get back to me.
In reply to BatQuake
I will have Spuds give you English lessons.
I did not say he never pelts. I said he does not need to.
In reply to Norm
The same can be said of other bowlers who were reported recently.
In reply to BatQuake
was Shillingford unfairly called for throwing?
Is Narine unfairly not being called for throwing?
In reply to grugru
Is Narine unfairly not being called for throwing?
My position on these matters are well known here. And you know them.
In reply to BatQuake
No, the same cannot. Ajmal, Seneya (SL player), Shilly and others who bowl the doosra by rolling the wrists obviously failed the 15-degree rule when tested.
The right-arm finger flickers like Narine and Mendis do not need to bend the elbow to produce the leg break. The same goes for traditional wrist spinners.
Narine seems to break the rule sometimes (to me, at least) when he bowls the faster delivery or the really big off-break.
He would probably be slightly less effective without his faster ball, but his main weapon, the flicked leg-break, would still be available.
In reply to Norm
Wait nuh.....so what you really trying to say? That Narine is the only spinner in the world who can be lethal without pelting?
In reply to BatQuake
Absolutely not. Graeme Swann did a great job by working out batsmen, for example. He got Shiv (of all people!) out several times by bowling a specific line to him, about middle and leg.
Herath, the SL left-arm spinner, does a great job at drifting and looping the ball. So too does Jadeja(?). Benn's very high trajectory could be a problem for many batsmen.
If Hafeez is called for chucking, sure
he Narine must be on the hit list soon
In reply to BatQuake
When I first looked at this when the match was played,I thought Narine pelted every ball,but when I see it in slow motion it dose not look too bad,in fact it appears that his shoulder action is producing the extra pace,he definitely doesn't look past the 15 degrees.
The other bowlers mentioned,show a bent arm past the 15 degrees in normal speed,you don't need to slow it to see it.
I said it a few days ago and here
we go another called for illegal mango picking.
In reply to Norm
Like yuh call de umpires after this post?
Off break bowlers better take up a new trade.
No career in cricket for you guys now.
The legal bowlers will struggle to get people
out.
Murali laughs....and says...records never to be broken.
In reply to Commie
This is a real travesty of justice
when the likes of Murali got away
with trickery for 20 years.
The cricket police all need to be fired
