Warne v Murlie

[Paid The Umpire]

The two spinners:
S K Warne and that Javlin Thrower

Who will beat Walsh first?

It is said that they will both pass Walsh as leading wicket taker in the 1st Test of the next Sri Lanka v Australia series.

SO WHO WILL WIN? :I

It's would be a lot easier for Murali to pass Walsh first when he bowls the bulk of the overs in any Sri Lankan innings.

See, before Vaas decided to step up to the plate, Murali was the only decent bowler in the attack so he got lots of bowling. Warne has NEVER been in an Aussie attack where there wasn't at least two other world-class bowlers in the lineup so he gets less bowling.

Murali may be a very good bowler but when the majority of his wickets have come from wrecking teams like Zimbabwe, New Zealand (when they weren't doing so well) and England, well I shall suspend my calling him one of the great off-spinners of all time. Warnie has done his thing against all-comers (except India).

So I will say Warnie is the superior spinner in all conditions, pitches and against different teams.

Personally I think Murali will get there first. This is because Steve Waugh tries to put bowlers into the attack who haven't taken any wickets to put a smile back on their face. On the other hand, Murali is Sri Lanka's main strike bowler so they will use him as much as possible.

Rhis is what I think anyway.

Murali till bowls the bulk of the overs

 

[The Argonaut]

At the rate that Murali is going he will be at 600 before Warne passes Walsh's tally. Not bad for a javelin thrower.

 

[Anon2]

He doesn't throw it. His action has been declared allegal. Just face it, he's ace!

 

[Neil Pickup]

Erm, I think you meant declared legal...

I reckon Murali will get there first as he bowls more frequently than Warne

 

[Anon2]

Sorry, legal. Murali can get anybody out, anyday of the week.

The only reason that Muli is allowed to bowl is that the Sri Lankan team will be so upset at their only bowler being taken off they will walk off the ground.

IT HAS HAPPENED!

Warney!

 

[Anon2]

But his action is legal! Face it!

The only reason that Muli is allowed to bowl is that the Sri Lankan team will be so upset at their only bowler being taken off they will walk off the ground.

IT HAS HAPPENED!

Warney!

And that is totally justified as his action is legal!

 

[Anon2]

Roughly, how many wickets do you think Murali will take in his Test career?

I think he'll take about 650 wickets if he doesn't get badly injured.

 

[Neil Pickup]

That sounds about right.

 

[Paid The Umpire]

I don't are what you say but here is my points.

1. Warne will beat Murlie to Walshes record.
2. Murlie should beat Warne at the end of their carrers.
3. Murlie is a chucker.
4. Murlie is a chucker.
5. Murlie is a chucker.
6. Sri Lankan cricket has been dragged through the mud by the walk off in Austraia. And it should of been after that kind of effort.

Rangatunga shoud not of had hisen walk off when Murlie was called for chucking, he held the game of Cricket in contempt because of his belief that his, and not the umpires, word was law.

In the past ten years I can ony think of two bigger disgracs:

3. Sri Lanka walk off
2. Cronje scandle
1. Englands effort in the recent Ashes series.

SO MURLIE IS ONLY NOT CALLED A CHUCKER BECAUSE THE UMPIRES ARE SCARED TO.

Thankyou. :lipsrsealed:

 

[Neil Pickup]

Muralitharan is not called for chucking because his action is legal!

It has been checked many times and proved legal many times!

How come you aren't so up-in-arms about Brett Lee's action? Or Shoaib? Or James Kirtley?

Rose-tinted Glasses.

 

[davidvegeta24]

the weirdst action i have seen is chris harris

 

[Paid The Umpire]

I admit that Brett Lee and Shoiab have chucking actions, but we are taking about MURLI "CHUCKING" Durli

 

[Best Bowling 10-1-6-324]

Murili is a friggin loser. end of story

 

[Top_Cat]

I admit that Brett Lee and Shoiab have chucking actions

On what do you base this? Both Vrett and Shoaib have been shown to have actions which hyper-extend their arms. Sure they both bend and straighten their arms but from around 40 degrees the WRONG WAY. Yes that's right, both of them have arms which flex past where their arm is straight. So when they bowl it gives the appearance of chucking but in reality they are actually straightening their arm from being bent backwards.
