Again, you cant really take too much out of one photo, especially when
you're talking angles and the person in question is at an angle himself, but
in this case the angle of his bent arm may actually be more if he was facing
the camera more

Its not a question of if his arm is straight or bent. We know he bowls with
a bent arm. The 15 degrees is the amount of straightening ie if your arm is
at 45 degrees and goes to 31 degrees when you release its within the current
ICC rules. If it goes from 45 to 29 then its a throw. Not sure how an
umpire is suppossed to judge this, but then maybe thats the point of the
rule.

Iirc, ages ago the Muralicheats quoted the exact degree that his resting
arm was bent at. I couldn't be arsed looking for it as nothing will change
what the slimy cheat has put in the record books. Still, it's highly
unlikely that anyone could bowl with any effort *and* keep their elbow from
reaching full flex so, assuming that the slimy cunts' resting figure is <
30 degrees then that would make the delivery in the picture a chuck. But
then anybody with a shred of objectivity knew this years ago.

And from the black humour file... In the current Test at Kandy they really
celebrated the cheat's achievement in true SL style. Someone had used the
work laserprinter to print up a pissy, but large colour poster of the cheat
in his usual pose, ie. just about to release. On his bare bowling elbow was
a fucking great elastic bandage. He must've been really getting some turn
that day.

If Murali is a white player he would have been acclaimed as the worlds best
spinner by Aussies, English fans, NZ and SA fans.

If Shane Warne is a brown Srilankan he would have been accused
as a druggie a million times by the Aussie/Eng/SA/NZ fans.

Murali is the greatest spin bowler in cricket history. Shane Warne got
all his wickets after taking ILLEGAL STEROIDS.

Andrew Flintoff and Brett Lee are Blatant CHUCKING CHEATS - Peter Roebuck

Action must be fixed
October 2, 2004

Unless Andrew Flintoff alters his action, he will be thrown into an
avoidable fracas, writes Peter Roebuck.

Andrew Flintoff's bowling action is provoking concern. His action has
deteriorated since he returned from his latest injury and now contains an
unmistakable jerk.

Before long, the roughness of his style is bound to attract the attention of
observers prepared to remove their eyes from a harmless tweaker suspected,
at worst, of reverse-throwing at a mild pace.

It is extraordinary that so much fuss has been made about a spinner at a
time when heads are being clattered and wickets taken by men whose menace
goes beyond an ability to turn the ball at right-angles. The delivery that
felled Brian Lara in Hampshire was the clearest throw since the ball that
removed Marcus Trescothick in Perth not so long ago.

Cricket is trying to find its way through the scientific and legal quagmire
that illegal bowling has become. Not that the issue was any more
satisfactorily dealt with in the past.

Such is the prevailing confusion that the danger arises that bowlers of all
sorts will feel free to send the ball down without taking heed of the
restraints supposedly imposed by the rules of the game.

Every country has strong opinions about all bowlers except their own, a
habit also detected during the outbreak of corruption that bedevilled the
game a few years ago. But then, corruption is not merely a matter of money
and, as usual, the International Cricket Council is left holding the baby -
an overrated activity.

Flintoff's action requires attention. Of course, he might not be conscious
of the roughness that has crept in over the course of a few months during
which his career has caught fire in the manner of an Olympic flame.

The suggestion that bowlers with illegal actions are culprits to be put
alongside hijackers, greedy politicians and men rubbing mint into the ball
is unkind. Still, footage is taken of every over bowled in a match and shown
to players in the evenings, so cricketers are not without information.
Accordingly, it is hard to believe that no one in the England camp is aware
this issue might crop up.

Flintoff is an important member of an emerging England side. Besides his
buffeting batting, he is a "strike" bowler in the sense that he is used in
short bursts and given the task of upsetting an innings.

He bowls fast and with hostility and favours the short-pitched delivery.
Armed with the old ball, he opens his chest even more and tries to cut the
ball away from the bat, the celebrated "reverse" swing of recent discovery.
In short, he is a handful.

Injuries have threatened to curtail his career as a bowler, a circumstance
bound to inhibit a swashbuckling style of batting that has emerged after a
long period underground.

Subsequent to his breakdowns, desperate to retain his menace and anxious to
protect his body without losing pace, the Lancastrian has put greater
emphasis on the use of chest, wrist and arm to hurl the ball down.

Unfortunately, the elbow also has come into play, as is almost inevitable
when wrist and shoulder are pushed to their limits. His raggedness is more
obvious when he moves around the wicket and bends the ball away from
left-handers.

Flintoff may remain within the leeway of 10 per cent that has been permitted
to fast bowlers since slow-motion film revealed that, otherwise, hardly
anyone would pass muster. Alternatively, he may stray outside that range. By
and large, the 10 per cent allowance reflects the capabilities of the naked
eye, which remains the surest guide in these affairs.

Since Flintoff's straightening of the elbow can be seen from a distance, he
might contravene even the amended rules. In that case, the matter must be
drawn forthwith to the attention of responsible officials so that it can be
confronted before it is too late.

At least it is possible nowadays to realise matters of this sort without
feeling that a player's position is thereby put in peril. Flintoff's action
requires the cricketing version of surgery. Otherwise, it will be raised
again by those persuaded that authorities omit to treat every ball upon its
merits.

that has NOTHING to do with Brett Lee other than the fact that CricketLeague

Shane Warne is a stocky guy. He wouldnt have
had that much stamina and strength to play cricket

Shane Warnes bowling record must be purged

Muralitharan is the best spin bowler bar none in cricket history.


Even excluding Bangladesh and Zimbabwe wickets, Murali will beat Warnes

Warne is a druggie, he took illegal steroids for all his wickets whereas
