Looking at the reaction of people on this board, that's wishful thinking.JASON said:The Super series will lack credibility if the second highest (and possibly soon to be highest) wicket taker in Test cricket history does not turn up. So its in the interests of the game and ICC that he plays in it !!
I hope the Aussie cricket fans, Media and players can be mature in their conduct and in what they say when they open their mouths !!
If The Aussie Media Machine doesn't go into overdrive to start hounding him from now, Since this Super Test will be under the auspices of the ICC he will definitely turn up !! (provided also his safety is guaranteed from mongerel fans like you !! )Cloete said:I hope I have a chance to throw something at him
Nah, I seriously doubt he'll come. It is Murali after all...
he wont even be in the side unless he picks up his form soon..masterblaster said:Meh...Im still hoping for a breathtaking Sachin century!
how long did it take you to come up with that reply?garage flower said:
Ohhh...seconds. If you'd like me to be more scathing I'd be happy to oblige.broncoman said:how long did it take you to come up with that reply?
That's certainly fighting talk.broncoman said:go ahead, your comments in the other thread certainly dont have me worried....
"Disturbed" being the operative word judging by this quote from the other thread:broncoman said:when people are trying to defend Murali i get very disturbed....
Ok then, to get to back to more serious discussion: on what precise basis do you label Murali as a cheat?broncoman said:whats the problem with that post?
i was clearly demonatrating my feelings on the fact he is a cheat and should have been pinpointed as a cheat well before he got to first class cricket....
...and many others have been proven to have been playing outside the rules as well. Are they all cheats?broncoman said:its been proven he does not deliver the ball within the rules
But it now appears to have been proven that most bowlers don't deliver the ball within the rules. Are you suggesting that Murali does it deliberately and the rest don't?broncoman said:cricket is a game, games are based on rules and fairness, part of the game is to deliver the bowl within the rules, its been proven he does not deliver the ball within the rules. You dont need to be a scientist to see he doesnt bowl like everyone else, his arm is clearly in a different position to every other bowler.
And to me that makes him a cheat....
maybe we have, but i still cant understand how its not considered an advantage, i cant buy into all that tribe about him being double jointed and so on, wheather or not his advantage is deliberate or not, it still exists...garage flower said:But it now appears to have been proven that most bowlers don't deliver the ball within the rules.

Haven't we established that the fact that his arm is "clearly in a different position to every other bowler" is completely irrelevant?
scientists havent made this game what it is today, so they have no right to change it, you can tell with the naked eye that murali throws the ball, and 95% of test bowlers you cant...Dasa said:...and many others have been proven to have been playing outside the rules as well. Are they all cheats?
If it's not deliberate though, is he still a cheat, which was your initial assertion?broncoman said:maybe we have, but i still cant understand how its not considered an advantage, i cant buy into all that tribe about him being double jointed and so on, wheather or not his advantage is deliberate or not, it still exists...
No, it wasn't. Because this bloke with flippers has just turned up and is called Ian Thorpe...broncoman said:let me put it this way, if you were a world class swimmer, the best ever, and along came a kid that had an accident as a kid and his feet were replaced with flippers, hardly his fault, yet it makes him a cheat....
maybe not the best example, but i guess you get my point....
