Name one fast bowler who has had his yorker/bouncer/quicker ball tested and cleared
That doesn't mean you are right

IMO, if someone visibly looks like they're chucking then the batting team can use a review, then the 3rd umpire watches the replay with his ICC-issue protractor held up against his little screen to see if the bowler chucked it.

It's not the extension which is the issue. It's the use of the elbow for force which goes against the essence what the old law stood for. It's possible to bowl the Yorker and bouncer legally. Not that all club bowlers and some intl bowlers do it legally

Ayurveda worked fine for 3000 years. Shall we get back to it over allopathic medicine? LMAO.

Who makes sure the protractors are unbiased? And 3rd umpire? Didn't you learn anything from the Adelaide D/N test?

TBH, my sun-earth example was better. Ayurveda actually works for quite a few people.

Start using the term in its proper context. You don't get to define what is legal and what isn't. The ICC laws do and they are all legal, the doosras, yorkers and bouncers by the new laws. Understanding words and terms a problem too now, is it? Its not just facts anymore, I guess.

For then they were fine. For now the current laws are not fine.

I don't want "bowl and see", "you will understand" type of bull****. What it shows is you are not sure what will happen if such a test is carried out. Your posting is full of hypothesis, sometimes ridiculous to the level of being on the weed. Either come up with numbers, or chill out

No, no, no and no.

So you have not shown scientifically why your method is better.
Facts >>>>> Hypothesis.

Every ****ing bowler in the history of the ****ing game uses their elbow to generate force. How are you not getting this fact into your thick head
This is ATG levels of ignorance, stupidity and stubbornness

Ha ha! So you admit that you must be bowling the doosra wrongly?

No it didn't. People had significantly shorter life spans.

Yes, a bloke who was much more powerfully built (Kaushal) got half of them below 15 degrees. People like Murali who are unbelievably hypermobile can get everything below 15 given the freaky physiology and biomechanics they have.

You think McGrath and Murali are at same plane. That's ignorance dude.

None of these are experts in biomechanics. I can safely say I know about human anatomy and physiology better than few of those gentlemen.

While Saqlain was never tested, he was clean too. He developed the ball as a kid, bowled it in tennis ball cricket for several years, and even then he claims it took him around 3 years to develop the muscle strength to be able to bowl it with a cricket ball.
And Pratters is shocked he cant bowl it properly the first time he tries it. Amazing.
