EXCLUSIVE: Game ill-equipped to deal with Muttiah Muralitharan no-ball controversy, says Ian Healy – Wide World of Sports
‘So ill-equipped to deal with it’
Former Australian wicketkeeper Ian Healy says cricket was “ill-equipped” to deal with the controversy over Muttiah Muralitharan’s bowling action.
The Sri Lankan off-spinner was no-balled for throwing by umpire Darrell Hair in the Boxing Day Test 25 years ago this week.
It sparked a summer of drama between the two sides, culminating in a World Cup final in March.
Muralitharan was also no-balled for throwing by Ross Emerson and Tony McQuillan during the one-day matches that followed the MCG Test.
