its completely true that Murali is a chucker. Unfortunately, the ICC folks, rather than having the guts to say so, decided to change the rules and allow chuckers into the game. Incidentally, our own Sunil Gavaskar was largely responsible for that. Fact is, Murali is a chucker and Warne isnt so its totally true that Warne deserves the record more than Murali. We should stop thinking on a regional basis and supporting people in our region of the world for the sake of it.

Warne had used drugs! so his records are tarnished as well! Its just that white thing that Aussies have. The only leanest doosra ation any off spinner had was Saqlain! rest like Bhajji and Ajmal appear to chuck. I mean "appear to" does not mean they do. Like Tait, Lee appear to chuck. The matches now a days are closely monitored and any one deliberately doing it can be caught especially with slow motion. But this miserable Ross Emerson will never utter any thing about any Aussie! He was asked about Tait and Lee his explanation was "it appears they chuck" but they dont, when pressed he had said if Lee had to go then Shoaib should go as well. see? Again like Murali, Shoiabs action has been studied (congenital abnormal joints) and likewise Bhajji Ajmal were all cleared. If it comes to them they have reasons, but nothing for Murali! I guess Aussies are still hurt by Ranatunga's men in Lahore 1996 WC final. Murali is a class act! All i will say is "grapes are sour"
When some one is in headlines for good reasons, talk bad about him and you will be in headlines. That is the cheap trick Mr. Ross Emerson is trying to play
This is another of those snooty Aussie trying to display as how idotic and bad mannered he is . never accept defat gracegully and also never accept that some one is better than them. They seem to have fine arted the skills in making such derogatory remarks.

If he has problem with Murali's action, he has a right to opinion. Most of the people agree that the rule is debatable.
But the fact is that Murali's action was within the limits as per the rule of the day. And he stands tall in the official record books. Demeaning him is nothing but demeaning the cricketing system.
On the other hand he feels Warne - who is a tainted individual both in him personal and sporting life - deserves the record.
Thi sis like saying emerson is the sone of mr.Someone lse and not emerson senior just because emrson senior,s wife like that some one else. ome on emerson grow up . dont remain a dog for ever .
one Australian unable to ICC president, they are just splitting unwanted words. They Killed many Indians those worked there. They are Cheaters (eg. Ricky) .. Murali is always the best.
A record is a record. Murali's record will be everlasting, criticism will be temporary. The fact is, critics like Emerson, bedi and their criticism about Murali will die someday but Murali's record will be immortal. These critics are like frog in a well.

Underplaing the efforts of a great bowler, especially when he is retiring shows to what level Australians will scoop down due to their racial thinking. No doubt Warne is a great bowler, but Murali was equally good. Further the quantum of wickets Murali got against countries like India and Pakistan which plays spin well, is much higher as compared to Warne. It is high time Australians get out of their ego and recognise that there are better cricketers outside their continent also. This intereview is an insult to all Australians and not to Murali.
