Also surely Indian spinners or any spinner does not need the ball shined?

Most of the wickets v england were taken by spinners.

Not to add fuel to the fire but Shami was reverse swinging the ball pretty early in the 2nd innings

 

Not saying Kohli tampered the ball and I haven't seen the video posted as to which phase during the match it was taken....so can't really judge.

Kudos to RSA for exposing such clueless captain. Big slap to his chamchas.

 

Sack him and make pujara captain.

Well said Bhai.:bow: Atleast your eyes were opened. bohoth kush hai mujhe :yess:

Mohammed Shami to Bairstow, no run, reversing yorker, dug out by Bairstow

88.5

Mohammed Shami to Bairstow, no run, length ball, stays low, Bairstow digs it out

 

"@Sid..How can the ball reverse with just 8 overs old?? Special skill from Shami?" Biman, this pitch looks like the moon right now. So the ball can rough up quite quickly. Then you need to maintain the shine on one side

Hahahaha since from the past Indians have done lot of un-sportiness things but sadly those were not disclosed by media and the interference by ICC=BCCI.  Its not only Kohli, any Indian will do some gimmick to win every match. Finally truth has been revealed. Shame on cheaters. Indians were always blabbing about the spot fixing of AMIR and Afridi's ball tampering. Now What? Are there any blabs to hide this? :giggle: Shame on #1 Test Team :cantstop:

Almost every cricketer chews gum on the field.   Every fielder shines the ball too.  Nothing new there.

 

I don't  really understand how a chewed gum can be used to shine the ball better !   If anything...cricketers try not to get any gum on the ball.

 

This is just a wild conspiracy theory without any logic or proof.

 

The video does not show any incriminating evidence.

Ok Cool.....Maybe South Africans are just clutching at straws here but as I have noted in the other thread,I have noticed fast bowlers from India,Australia,South Africa and England reversing the ball pretty early on helpful pitches.

 

I have seen Starc,Shami,Yadav,Ishant,Stokes,Anderson,Broad,Hazelwood and all South African bowlers do it pretty early in such conditions these days.

 

Maybe world is changing Srilankan and Pakistanis have become really honest or have lost all kinds of ability with the ball...I will stick to latter.

Very often, conventional swing is thought to be reverse swing when people see the bowler getting inswing.

Come on bro, Video is the evidence. How about you guys reacted when Afridi just tampered the ball? Punishment should be given. Saza millengi :police: saroor

Afridi actually tried to eat the ball which looked like a cupcake to him and bite the seam which he mistook for frosting

How is this video evidence ?  What do you see that I don't  ?   Please explain in detail.

But the shine on the ball gives it away, doesnt it ? If the ball swings towards the shine, its reverse swing.

The players know it and the observant spectators watching on large screen TVs  do  too.

 

But many  comments about a bowler getting reverse swing are from casual spectators who do not observe these details.

 

I  have seen quite a few instance when conventional inswing is being casually referred to as reverse swing by fans.

You must be feeding the wrong doer. I will ask you,   Why can't Kohli shine the ball by appealing the saliva like all other players do? Why did he use his chewing-gum to shine the ball?

Footage of Virat Kohli and David Warner allegedly using artificial substances to shine the ball did not come under the ICC's consideration since any Level 1 or Level 2 offence needs to be brought to the match referee's notice within five days of the incident
