Yeah. This is worse than that though.

We'll see if it's a road once we've had a go at them. 40-5 and we could have been out of the game by now, but we're still in it.

Takes all the revs off it somehow. Grainy stream so I can't see how he releases it but it might almost be like a nuckle ball of some sort of something; it just slides through the air and then skids on.

He basically runs up as if he's going to bowl an off-break and then just throws it as hard as he can at the stumps.

Apparently they did.

As Geoff Boycott used to say "it will be out in tomorrow's newspapers"

Yeah we don't crap in the first world; most of us would actually have no idea what that was emanating from Ajmal's backside. Why isn't it roses and rainbows like what happens here? PEWS's retort to Ganeshran on Daemon's picture depicting Ajmal's excreta

It's a road. It is doing nothing out of the ordinary. Yes, England could bowl seriously well but it wouldn't be by seaming it all over the place.

But they get a full 15 degrees when there's generally far less hyper-extension.

The whole point of the allowance is because you can't really bowl with that happening, not to allow spinners to fully exploit the limit so they can develop new deliveries which shouldn't be legal.

ICC should find a way to measure the bend from the match bowling videos rather than testing in a lab. Its easy for a bowler to consciously control his action for the controversial deliveries just to clear the test.

Looks to be bending his arm more than before, especially with his new delivery. Needs to be tested again.

Yes he was cleared by the ICC and that is what annoys the heck out of me.
Stop the bull**** people, he has been cleared by the ICC. Who the hell are you to mouth about his action?
Bhajji and Murali have had the same problems and I fear Ajmal will continue to hear this crap.
