Notice the foot movement. :)

The first one(natwest)because of the ball pitching directly up to the waist slidely out side off stump.He had to move back a inch or two to get his arm free.

The second one(world cup) the ball already is pitched through the off stump this time slidely wider and faster and that gave him more time to react and hit it for six.

and sachin would have cover driven/straight-driven that natwest delivery..
Sachin will lean forward to get the weight on the ball :)

For example notic sehwag taking a step back?if it was sachin he would take a step forward towards the covers move back a little bet to free his arm the lean into it and put it through the covers :D

Hey, is that Shoaib in the second one? his action looks so dodgy, even though i DONT think he chucks or anything, theres just a bad angle of his arm at one point, looks crooked as a question mark.... anywho...

I thought exactly the same thing - it looks like the most blatant chuck ever... was hoping no-one else'd mentioned it! :)
The cause is obviosly the low fps ratio.

Your avatar's great, Bouncer, I've always liked it.
It even made Shoaib look like Chris Martin when I looked at it once.

Hi Richard, you want me to attach it in my post or keep it in the avatar?

I can put something from that innings too, will make it soon
I was thinking attach it to a post... you change your avatar so often it'll only be here for posterity for a short time. :)

Notice the differene between gough and shoaib akhtar!

Shoiab akhtar runs and bowls with his elbow bend a bit and if you take a look at gough his elbow is straight tell the last moment.

I think i would call shoaib akhtar a chucker at this ocassion after seeing the slow motion avatar :)

When bowling in the 150 to 160's per hoursurely their is some form of optical illusion?

With that footage the square leg umpire would have been well with in his rights to call him for throwing...
