Bishen Bedi's comments VS Murali's action
By Rishva Weliwita on Feb 2002
--------------------------------------------------------------------------- It is very baffling to hear that Mr. Bishen Bedi waited this long (since (1) Muralitharan is currently taking test wickets at a speed that no other Although, I hate to mention the second possible reason, in my view, it could I must also say, Mr. Bedi must be very ignorant of modern medical The analogy Mr. Bedi used to abuse Murali's action, itself, is llogical. Therefore, I think, Mr. Bedi's recent comments on Murali's bowling action, If a person is evil, he/she would not want to accept the truth, no matter

both, or one of the following two reasons, why Mr. Bedi, suddenly, decided
to abuse Muralitharan's action, after 6+ years of staying in silence.
spinner had done before, thus would reach the highest point in no time, if
he is allowed to play test cricket.
Had Murali taken say, for instance, fewer than 200 wickets, so far, thus
turned out to be an unsuccessful bowler, then we definitely wouldn't have
heard these harsh remarks from Mr. Bedi.
very well be TRUE as well;
(2) Since, all most all Murali's critics, in the past, had come from
non-Asian countries (mostly from Australia), thus someone from Australia,
who cannot stand Murali's success any longer, would have paid substantial
amount of money for Mr. Bedi, to get him to abuse Murali's action.
Hence, Murali's antagonists may now use Mr. Bedi's comments as a weapon, and
could prove that not only non-Asians, but also great past cricketers from
Asian countries, such as Mr. Bedi himself, could also find Murali's action
illegal.
techniques, in order to contradict the medical evidence that proves the
legality of Murali's bowling action; while some fast bowlers, in recent
times, were cleared only by the medical tests done at
the University of Western Australia or in some cases by no medical evidence
at all, Muralitharan's action was cleared by two separate and unrelated
tests. That is, none other than by the University of Western Australia
itself, and also by a professor at Hong Kong University of Science and
Technology.
Because, having an eye sight is a must for a person to fly an aircraft (I
mean with currently available technology, a blind cannot fly), just as
having an arm is a must for a person to bowl. But, Murali has that arm,
therefore he should be allowed to bowl as long as his action is not illegal.
is nothing but a well orchestrated ***, to stop Murali from playing
test cricket anymore. Thus, deprive him from achieving the highest wicket
taking milestone!
Having said that, I would be surprised, if nobody else from Asia decided to
follow Mr. Bedi's comments.
how hard you try to convince his/her, or how hard you try to prove your
point.
Unfortunately, the good have no choice, but to share this world with people
of evil, thus live among them. Though, in many cases, I have realized the so
called "force of evil" somehow manages to raise its head and destroys the
TRUTH. It is because, this world of humanity is poisoned with jealousy,
hatred, destruction, corruption and with many other imm***acts and
feelings. It is tragic, isn't it?
