Some dodgy looking "bowling" going on from marlon samuels, think he may well be banned again soon

Narine reported for chucking in the IPL. Getting ridiculous now, he's been cleared twice in the last six months...

could finish him this... hasn't been threatning in the IPL this year, and a complete re-make of his action could nulify him completely..

His action is pretty bad. It's surprising he got away with it as long as he did.

His action is alright now and he has been cleared twice recently (one was three weeks ago). Don't see why they're reporting him when his action has been proved to be acceptable...

Testing is under controlled conditions, with the pressure of a large pay day on your back who wouldn't put in that extra "effort"?

They're supposed to make sure that the bowler bowls the same in testing as they do in match situations.

I'm not disputing that, just passing comment that under the pressure of playing for your pay packet bad habbit might come back.

When people are driving, they don't always pay full attention to the speed limit. When they know the police are watching, they are ALL below the limit.

Samuels and Braithwaite bowling in tandem at the end of the last test looked... Interesting.

I have hardly watched a ball of the circus this year but I read some tweets that he had reverted to his old action as the new one had been ineffective? (I haven't even watched his new action, no idea what its like?).

by **greyblazer** » Wed Apr 29, 2015 9:24 am

Yes, I said that on Twitter. Maybe it was a case of him taking time to get adjusted to his tinkered action. In the game against DD, a few deliveries he bowled seemed as if with his original action.

Well he's been banned from bowling off breaks. His refusal to play in the World Cup makes a little more sense now.
