Yes... because he took so many wickets against us.. our batsmans were a walking duck against him.. so he has to be a chucker. haha

they could have said anybody. It's all derived from a quote by Angus Fraser;



however you are deliberately misquoting to try to push a barrow. your attempted ambiguation is both childish and disingenuous. It does nothing to further understanding or adult discussion and should be discouraged.

Sorry, you smell of thick ****. McGrath and Pollock's names are mentioned because they were measured. If some others were measured and these two's name did appear, then they could have gone to the courts for defamation, and after half a decade, it has not happened. What ever your conspiracy theories are just in the dust bin. The FACT is McGrath and Pollock were measured at 12 degrees. Your attempts to twist technical English is just childish and moronic.

no, I'm done with you until you prove it.

You deliberately chopped off a quote, from which I've provided the origin, which doesn't back up what you are saying.

liar.

Stop pouting out garbage, and I've even given the full article link to see. McGrath's and Pollock's names doesn't come out of arses of people unless their footage was tested. Even the players themselves not deny the fact. Stop these child's play bull****. Simple fact is McGrath and Pollock chucked under old law. If you cannot digest the fact without resorting to playing Shakspear with the words, it's not my problem.

And one more time liar accusation will have my self putting in aggressor's position. I don't give a **** about reporting posts and going after mods crying like a bitch.

Yur silly assumptions are out of YOUR own head. Go and educate yourself on relative clauses of English.

I know it shatters all the values you had, McGrath and Pollock CHUCKED under the old law

That would be enough, thanks. There will be infractions handed out for posts in this thread. Any more insults may lead to a ban.

Murali is as much of a chucker, as Warnie is a doper. The difference however is that Murali is, was and always will be the better bowler.

The record speaks for itself. For all the barking, Warnie could not pick up 800 wickets in Tests.

But if you talk about leadership, Warnie is the better captain any day of the week.

How did warne get involved?

This debate was settled years ago. Some people don't believe data - there's not much you can do about that and it's not going to be a matter of rational argument to convince them otherwise.


Also Warne was a better player....though neither would make my all time team. :p

the links I posted show the results, not just the abstract.

from your first link ->
We found that bowlers generally bowled within a change in elbow extension angle of 15.5 degrees. However, this limit was unable to differentiate groups of bowlers from those who were suspected of throwing in the past. Improved differentiation was attained using the elbow extension angular velocity at ball release. The elbow extension angular velocity at ball release may be conceptually more valid than the elbow extension angle in determining which bowlers use the velocity-contributing mechanisms of a throw. Also, a high value of elbow extension angular velocity at ball release may be related to the visual impression of throwing. Therefore, it is recommended that researchers and cricket legislators examine the feasibility of specifying a limit to the elbow extension angular velocity at ball release to determine bowling legality.
