 Harbhajan's action reported yet again Full story is Here Well, apparently his Doosra is the the suspicious one. ICC must stop this process. They have to make some strong decisions and they must do it now. If someone is chucking a particular delivery, just no-ball that one. There is no other option. It might be harsh, but it's the only option IMO. Undergoing this remedial process and all that is pretty useless. I also think they should bring the elbow-bending limits to what were there before the Murali saga started. I think 5 deg for spinners and 10 deg for fast bowlers.

| We have had a long discussion on the 15 degress issue Nikhil before as well, I'll find a link to that thread & post it here soon, but the fact right now is that the human eye can only notice bends that are more than 14 degress...if someone's bending it by 5/10, you won't notice it with the naked eye, rule changes therefore were necessary 'cause an ICC research proved 99% bowlers crossed the previous limits. If the rules weren't changed you would have to ban everyone. Yeah, just did a quick search, previous discussion on this and similar topics listed below: Rule changes good for cricket Discussion started by Rachael everyone-nearly-chucks Discussion started by Rachael Last edited by Zainub : 21-12-2004 at 11:07 AM. |

| Well it cuts everyone a bit of slack doesn't it. As for Bhajji, well he's lucky that there is now a 15 degree barrier.

| Was Harbhajan Singh actually no-balled? I can't see how he can have been reported if he wasn't called during play. Second question: the discussion about changing the rules has been going on for a couple of months, but have the rules actually been changed yet? I think not. I will be content to have someone put me right on this if the change has actually been made and I missed it.
