All chuckers should be banned to prevent yungsters from copying their action and then turning the game of cricket into a baseball like game. If these chuckers arent rooted out now then the day isnt far when bowlers will start bowling underarm

the trend has already started in srilanka with "slinga malinga".....the fellow is a chucker surely yet ICC does not do anything about it.....why?......because of the asian lobby...read "India"......let people be made aware that all those here in india criticising america for its unilateral military actions because of its political and military might the same parallel can be drawn of india's role in the cricket world because of india's cricket financial clout.....might is right holds true in every sphere of life it seems

You are an ganhole....Malinga's action is perfectly fine.... Murli is definitely a chucker...and so id bhajji but bhajji looks decent when compared to Murali
WARNE WAS NOT MUCH SUCCESSFUL AGAINST INDIA, WHERE AS MURALI HAS DONE WELL. APART FROM CRICKET, THE PERSONAL CHARACTER OF MURALI IS BETTER. MAYE BE WE CAN SAY WARNE IS THE GREATEST LEG SPINNER, BUT MURALI IS THE GREATEST OFF SPINNER.

Murli is a chucker,warne is a drug cheat and fixer, but atleast his bowling action was legal.Warne should have 100 wickets taken off his stats and Murli should have all his wickets taken off .That leaves Kumble ,McGrath, Walsh and Akram(fixer?),Hadlee,Kapil(fixer?)Pollock,Imran(tamperer,cheat and mullah)Waqar(cheat but with a legal action,-100wickets)Ambrose,botham, lillee
I am happy that Muralitharan has equal the record of Shane Warne, and will be the best that there is in boling in world cricket. Because Austrila does not play any sport fair. I am from the West Indies and i am happy for Muralitharan to hold world record and not Shane Warne. Be good man and stay up.

Every where Might is Right. Ranatunga backed Murali like no one else could. we need supporting leaders like Ranatunga. I am sure Ranntunga will the happiest man today! Congrates to Murali and thanks to Ranatunga. If we had a captain like Ranatunga then ia m sure Rajesh Chaunhan would still be bowling for India and may b with 400 odd wickets.
Dont compare Murali with Shane! While Shane is like cheese Murali is like chalk. Shane definitely not the 4th best cricketer ever played the game of cricket since WG Grace as some whiteplaying nations ranked him, but certainly Shane on any day is light years ahead of Murali. Shane never had the 15 degree non-sense allowance like Murali even if we accept that Murali technically do not chuck!
The repertoire that Shane has in his armoury is simply amazing!

agree completely, ICC bent their rules to allow the chucker to coninue. Warne is far better. that said its not Murali's fault.
I have always loved watching Murli bowl. But I'll say Warne would go out as the better one. Why ? Cuz history will always continue to question Murli's action. That issue will always be linked with Murli
