So you know more about rules than ICC?

I suggest ICC to go home so you can take over..
Just because the ICC have passed his action doesnt mean he doesnt throw it, they changed the rules for murali, so they can't really stop now can they? You're only arguing because you support pakistan anyway

Just saw the Kholi's bat has the "GM now" part on his bat, so his bat must be a GM
I believe he was using one of Kumble's old Catalysts a while ago

Gambhir seemed desperate to give Oz his wicket, two missing run out chances, but never mind Gambhir made it 3rd time lucky.

Whether a player throws or not if the icc pass the action as legal that's the end of it we can have opinions which everyone is entitled to but the governing body have said it ok so fair play

Regarding the pitches preparing pitches that suit the home team in a test or odi series has been going on for years but to do it for a world cup is not really on IMO but that's just me

As long as ALL the pitches prepared for the tournament are of the same style (i.e. the one that suits the hosts), not just the ones for the matches of the hosts, then I don't see it as a problem. Everyone gets to play on it and get some level of used to it.

Gawd I love you Indian fans, it seems to be a 50/50 time split between being massively defensive if anyone else says something about your team, and being incredibly critical of them yourselves!

It just seems some of the pitches have been prepared to be ultra slow to nullify the pace attack of the non asain teams but hey you have to learn to play against spin some time in your life ;)

Mohali and Bangalore had pace in the pitches.

Places like Chennai, Columbo, Motera etc are very hot and the Sun dries them out.

Looks like it will be India's batting versus Pakistan bowling. India have never lost to Pak in a WC tournament. It looks like being a cracker.

Not that much pace but Indian pitches tend to be batting roads or turners anyway as that's what fans want apparently loads of runs
