Jonbrooks chucking Megathread

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.

tbf you actually sound like you know what you're talking about ITT, which is more than you can say about anyone else

 

[Migara]

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

Replace extension with angular velocity. Point still stands. How do you KNOW the doosra is the worst?

IIRC Migara is a bio-med student and has actually played cricket (as a spinner) to a fairly high level in Sri Lanka.

Only ever shows up to post about chucking too :P

 

[Pratters]

Even below 15 should be chuck depending upon use of elbow as force. That's why doosra should be outlawed.

I have not seen a way to bowl it without chucking it, as I understand chucking.

 

[Migara]

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

Who has decided it is not fine? You in your small bubble? all cricketing boards agree with the law. deal with it.

 

[Migara]

No, no, no and no.

Then please, STFU. You have no business in discussing scientific matters.

"I cannot do it, therefore those who do must be cheating"

Fabulous. We have hit peak Pratters.

 

[Migara]

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

They had longer lifespans compared to pre-historic times. Yes, so it worked.

I did Bio-Med for my first degree and the Advanced Doosra wasn't an available class

different in Sri Lanka I guess

I feel like Copernicus being bashed up by the Christians.

If you bowl the doosra, you will see how the elbow is used to bowl the ball. That would be noticeable when one measures velocity.

Unfortunately you and I would definitely chuck the doosra. But that's just because we don't have Murali's tendons and shoulder.

 

[Migara]

You are going in circles. You haven't given any measurement to distinguish chucking vs non-chucking use of elbow.

I think you're more like Newton tbh

Force = m x a.

Brilliant. So you understand chucking to the level to know it without testing. I think ICC can replace their multi-million accredited testing facilities with Pratters to look at the bowler and call for illegal actions.

What a champ!

Actually now a Consultant Nephrologist. Sports Med was my pet subject.

 

[Pratters]

I will believe Holding and Bedi on cricket over some scientists who don't understand what cricket is, thanks.

 

[honestbharani]

I will believe scientists on angular velocity and elbow flex over someone who does not understand what "chucking" is, thanks.

 

[Pratters]

How do they not understand chucking?

Surprised with so few likes on this. A sigworthy expression of bigheaded ignorance deserves more. It's how I get most of my likes.
