you are wrong..Shami's chip in the ball malfunctioned that day

Agreed, in the exuberance over back to back wins he forgot to charge the battery and the embedded chip had no power.

What do I have to say about a match that happened 3 months ago 

You have nothing to say about a match from 3 months ago, but wax eloquent about matches 2-3 decades old. That's just

 

Then on second thought, maybe I shouldn't judge your condition. Don't forget your meds.

The World Cup final was a decade ago? India doctoring pitches is very much an ongoing problem.

Even Imran Khan has spoken a lot about Indians and Hindus, we all know how much weight that has. 
No wonder Pakistanis are universal beggars, their pea sized brain can't fathom the geo-politics.

Haha but now Georgians hate Indians so much as their country has been flooded with Indian “students”, Indians are literally crying on Georgian subreddits and websites about how they can’t stand the racism and hate they get from Georgians

Huh when was 'pitch doctoring' ever a problem in the WC other than arguably the final which cost them the game.

Indian med students who go to Georgia and other former USSR states are the discards who either can't get into medical colleges here or can't afford the fees and make do with going to these nations whose economy depends on it. lol If that's supposed to be a burn.

You otoh should see what your new Turk abbus whom you have tried to appropriate just because of Ertugrul say about you.

Whingers like yourself can whinge and get bent out of shape. But that's about it, your claims will remain just as unsubstantiated as they were on day 1.

If a Saazish(Conspiracy theory) Olympics were to be held your ilk would dominate proceedings.

Are you sure they are Indians and not Pakistanis masquerading as Indians 

 

Pakistanis often change their identity as Indians just to avoid the shame they carry due to their incompetent country.

A nice read … Good to hear how Kiwis practised for reverse swing and even fed Pak their own medicine.
 

Guys like Wasim rate M Crowe highly and among the best players of reverse swing.

Reverse swing is a simple science. Allow one side of the ball to become relatively lighter (by making it rougher) so the heavier part dips. 
 

I think that “tempering” (as the word is now commonly used) the ball with finger nails should be allowed. Not only finger nails but use any part of the human body. If you have a spiky bum, go use it to rough up a side.
 

What should not be allowed is the use of tools such as bottle caps, spikes, sandpaper, etc.

That will raise a lot of questions. That's unfair advantage to the bowler. Suppose if the batsman starts using a steel bat or the likes, like Lillee did once. You will need to balance out the equation, and that would be stretching the line too far.

Bat technology is constantly advancing. Batsmen have the option to use various types of bats as well. 

The ball remains more or less the same, apart from colors - red, white, pink, etc., which may give them respective properties. 
 

As long as a bowler uses his natural tools such as nails (some may even advocate the use of teeth), it should be ok. 
 

And reverse swing is no longer a mystery that it used to be.
