Ajmal Reported

Good that the illegitimate bowlers are being dealt with but I ask the question why arent there any Indian bowlers or high profile T20 specialists from West Indies being investigated, isnt it coincidental that the BCCI backed ICC are preserving with the Narines and Ashwins due to them playing part in the IPL and Indian teams? Just finding it strange!

This may most likely be the end of Ajmal's career, he is 36 years old now cant see him with a new effective bowling action by next year's world cup.

Neither of those bowlers bowl a doosra as the carrom ball is their 'other' one, nor are they known for a quick straight one like what Samuels bowls. It's not surprising at all that they haven't been called.

I understand people are upset if their favourite bowler has been called or if others appear to be getting off but this hardly has the makings of a conspiracy.

Narine was reported in his earlier days while playing in the inaugural IPL tournament not with KKR but a WI team, T&T. Since then he hasnt been called up, again coincidentally he is an integral part of the Indian outfit KKR an one of the top bowlers of all editions of the IPL thus far. Certainly reeks of suspicion!

Not sure if you have gotten the news that the Bangladeshi pacer was called up recently so its not only 'magic' spinners like Ajmal, rather the rest of the world barring the big 3 'IND/AUS/ENG'.

its clear that narine performs all his variations with his fingers but the doosra requires the arm to be bent therefore narine is safe.

So he was called up in the past, tested, passed the test and then returned to bowling and hasn't been called up since, this is suspicious?

And yes I have got the news about the Bangladeshi seamer. Being from NZ I'm against the Big 3 and especially the BCCI as anyone else but this isn't even close to a conspiracy.
 
Let's just ban all bowlers and become like baseball with a run-up! Come on guys...I think it's good that most of the suspect actions are being tested but testing everyone would be ridiculous and do more harm than good. Just imagine all the best spinners in the world are banned (Ajmal, Herath, Ashwin, Narine)...how could that be a good thing? It would reduce the amount of world class spinners and also decrease the amount of cricketers wanting to bowl spin. The world needs good spinners. That's why there should be some leeway.

I suppose if they could've done it for Murali they can also compromise for the rest, probably when another Warne-like bowler comes around outside of Asia then they would relax the laws for an Asian, unless the Big 3 has other ideas on their world domination of cricket list!

So now it's a racist conspiracy?
