The proposed balls have yet to fly across the English skies, yet a friend from BBC's forum, Krickeet, just sent one quickie hot off his jokes burner (he really fires up a spicy barbecue of them) on the pinkness of it all.
This is what he sent across -
soulberry..
add this to ur imagination:
Darrell Hair umpiring in a match between Oz and SL and giving the result away to Oz..reason? Murali molested (technically known as tampering with a red ball) the pinky too much with his doosras...

For those who do not know the language of Hindi or Urdu, "doosras" mean, "the other ones."

Very funny Soulberry. Murali would now be in even more fire owing to his unusual action.......
With even Warne asking to test him in match coditions, tough times ahead for the poor bowler besides being the hyped and under pressure to break the record in the Aussie land itself!!!
Ashu, that joke isn't mine, but it highlights the soup Murali finds himself in - between a divided opinion.
His action is legal according to the definintion, but then it is pointed out the laws were changed.
He was checked in an Australian lab but then it is pointed out that lab and real conditions are different. In a lab he knows what to expect and cannot account for the effect of a batsman's approach or the amont of bowling he has to do in comparison to a real situation. Fatigue could kick in there it is argued.
He was tested with a brace but it is pointed out that he didn't spin the doosra as much as he did outside....there isn't any one way to settle this issue except in one's own mind. If one feels he's OK, he's OK and we appreciate the game he plays.
