prasadiyer Posted November 15, 2013 Posted November 15, 2013 Shillingford's action looks very dodgy. At times (maybe when bowling the doosra) it seems like he is bending his arm almost 90 degrees before straightening! Strange that umpires are not calling his bowling. Even in this youtube video [ame]www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZRkBd1mhjE4[/ame] I thought he is chucking. But yesterday during the second day's play at Wankhede I saw much more bending and straightening.
fineleg Posted November 15, 2013 Posted November 15, 2013 Chucking Commies were mentioning too Can umpires pls report?
StriKe Posted November 15, 2013 Posted November 15, 2013 he was suspended before too http://www.espncricinfo.com/westindies/content/story/493633.html
bsriharsha Posted November 15, 2013 Posted November 15, 2013 it's impossible to bowl the doosra without chucking. Murali,Ajmal,Harbhajan,Saqlain,Shillingford ... almost every bowler who has a doosra now...chucks The ICC with its current rule has just allowed these cheats to pass the test in labs and chuck in matches cause there's no way of checking who chucks in the match,
nevada Posted November 16, 2013 Posted November 16, 2013 Agreed, his arm seems to bend every once in a while.
Temujin Khaghan Posted November 16, 2013 Posted November 16, 2013 if not for shillingford... this series would have been an complete utterflop its still one-sided... but atleast he was a good threat for our batsmen.
SLICKR392 Posted November 16, 2013 Posted November 16, 2013 Chucking Commies were mentioning too Can umpires pls report? It was Gavaskar who brought it up.
cowboysfan Posted November 16, 2013 Posted November 16, 2013 bent arm is fine but he straightens it on some deliveries but i dont see what the ICC can do about it.
cowboysfan Posted November 16, 2013 Posted November 16, 2013 Both shillingford and sameuls reported for chucking.
Trundler27 Posted November 16, 2013 Posted November 16, 2013 All these wannabe mystery spinners seem to have faulty or doubtful actions.... That's why it's still preferable to have a lethal classical spinner like a Swann.
rkt.india Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 bent arm is fine but he straightens it on some deliveries but i dont see what the ICC can do about it. I do not understand who one can bowl with bent arm without straightening it until elbow is bent permanently due to some abnormality. You cannot really bowl with bend arm in reality. I have been seeing so many bowlers chucking. Kyle Mills, Andrew Ellis and Senanayke in SL-NZ series
GoldenSun Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 All these wannabe mystery spinners seem to have faulty or doubtful actions.... That's why it's still preferable to have a lethal classical spinner like a Swann. Agreed. Although I can't stand him, Swann backs his talk up with performances.
SLICKR392 Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 Agreed. Although I can't stand him' date=' Swann backs his talk up with performances.[/quote'] Actually Swann rarely brags about his bowling. He usually has a go at bowlers who come up with the talks such as 'I've got a newkiller variation to tackle their batsman'. The last time it was Ashwin who was advertising his new variation prior to the Eng test series and got pwned by them. This is what Swann had to say on twitter when Lyon brought up his new variation.
