Is he the same guy with suspicious bookie type uncle?

^^yah

[umpire]

he faster one was always suspect. I am sure even Afridi chucks with his super fast delivery. Can they ban him? Same with Lee, he effort ball is clear chuck

[Sachinism]

there's been talk about his action for years, i think it was his quicker delivery that was the concern there are other bowlers that look more suspect, but ICC never bothers them, kinda weird

[Bhiku Mhatre]

Does Bowler's action gets monitored in each international match or just when someone reports suspected action ? I believe with so much technology and so much cricket, they should monitor and analyze each international match so afridis, muralis and lees dont get away like this !

I knew that his faster ball was a chuck (i do that sometimes in galli cricket) but 27 deg. for his offbreak was a surprise.

He is a useless bowler anyway

When India visited WI couple of years ago Samuels bowled a faster one to Kaif that clocked 123 k from about 4 steps :nervous: Bucknor gestured to the 3rd umpire to notice that ball but as you would expect it has taken ICC 2 years to come to a conclusion.

Amazing isn't it? Everyone in the ground knew he chucked and everyone that has watched him knows he chucks but ICC took all of 2 years to confirm. :hysterical:
