After a long time of hard consideration.

I now side with the people who say Mulari is a chucker. The straw that broke the camels back was Tony Cozier. He didn't mention any names but he described what he considered chucking is.

I dont want to (re) open up old arguments but IMO his action has always been more than suspect.

His extenuating circumtance was that he had a disability and couldnt straighten his arm.....

1) He can bowl leg spin with a straight arm.

2) The flex on his off spinner is 10 degrees.

3) The flex on his doosra is 15 degrees on a good day and 20+ when he badly needs a wicket.

Although he has taken 1000+ international wickets, to me he will never be anywhere near the top bracket of all time bowlers..... because he isnt one.

If he can throw with a straigh arm, why cant he bowl with the same? ANyways, since ICC says that he is within the rules, he is alright.
