Exclamation Chucking summit

read full artcile here

So if everything goes according to plan Murali should be able to bowl his wrong one again (Aravinda Desilva is in that subcomitte, what can we expect?), since the new rules would allow a tolerence level of 15 degrees for both fast and slow bowlers. Dissapointingly enough cricket info suggests the controversy over suspect bowling actions is unlikely to be affected
because "other high-profile international bowlers would, according to the latest research which has a five-degree error margin, also exceed a 15-degree tolerance level". Now we only have to guess who these "other high-profile international bowlers" are...October 26th isn't that farway, curosity won't kill any cat in that time, but this highlights yet again for me that chucking abobe all, above match fixing, above the whole Zimbabwe issue , above allegations of an over crowded international calendar, and above all other issues it remains the single biggest problem the ICC has to cope up with.
