If India objects to Usman Tariq’s bowling during the match, how should Pakistan respond?

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

The amount of time Tariq pauses before bowling is so long that the Indian audience could watch an entire episode of Pakistani drama Meri Zindagi Hai Tu and finish at least 24 episodes during a single T20 match. FYI, Indian audience is crazy about this Pakistani drama. @Major @The Bald Eagle

Man is earning his bread with his bowling.

There is absolutely no reason to call him a chucker unless it’s proven.

He was cleared twice, thats enough. The umpires will handle everything else.

 

[IAJ]

I just herd the Indian Umpire Anil Chauday’s interview where he was asked about Usman’s action. He clearly said that his action is legal and that he pauses in every delivery. Moreover he said that the batsmen are so innovative these days that bowlers also needs to do something different to survive.

If Usman pauses more that he does now then there could be some issues, but as of today his action is fine.

 

[ghalib kichlu]

Walk off the pitch like the Senegalese did

 

[rballer]

There are two issues that i have with india media here.

First he isnt out best spinner. Our best spinner is Abrar. Usman is getting too much hype just because of the way he releases the ball.

This is so true. Pakistans best bowler right now is Abrar. Genuine wicket taker.

Indian cricket team is as professional as it can get. We hardly complain about pitches, conditions. If UT has a good day, take it on the chin and move on. Up to ICC on what to do, not our headache.

IF I was Pak, I would not play UT as this is a meaningless game in the grand scheme of things. Certainly unleash him in Super 8 against teams vulnerable to spin rather than going there with a cloud of doubt over his action since playing vs India will raise a lot of eyeballs over his action

 

[globetrotter]

M.Ashwin advised if Tarique takes big pause while bowling a delivery then Batsman shall get off from the pitch

You saying this on your own experience

 

[globetrotter]

Pakistan team alslways using unethical practices against opponents to win the game.... In fact, PCB before putting him on international level should have worked on improving his bowling delay and action

 

[Romali_rotti]

Just saw this kid bowling for the 1st time. Wow what a terrible terrible and ugly bowling action...

 

[mon858]

In all honesty, he shouldn't play the match on 15th.

Anticipation is always worse than the real impact so let the neighbors anticipate even more that he's a secret weapon and will only be used against them if the two teams meet in the knockouts.

This match really shouldn't have any serious impact on qualification chances of both of the teams and due to pre tournament seeding, it doesn't really matter where you end up in your pool.

I like this idea. Treat the 15th game like fun as YK would say. Go out there smash it for fun, mess with batting order, random folks opening bowling,etc. Just fool around.

 

[Sachin fan]

So indians are already trying to find an excuse... Good to see a panic like this... Keep doing bhangra

How dishonest are you? OP is not Indian and Indians are politely contributing. I didn't see a single excuse from anyone?

 

[Bhaijaan]

Here comes Usman Tariq bowling Right Arm Batta from over the wicket.

 

[Sachin fan]

Lol hahaha Indians have already started crying.
Usman tariq has already won by making these rondhu Indians cry.
Keep it up Usman tariq.

Again, being dishonest. The thread was opened by a pakistani and most Indians, including me have actually said there is no problem

Why do you guys lie so much?

 

[Devadwal]

There will be 29 breaks during Sunday’s match.

• 1 innings break
• 4 drinks breaks
• And 24 breaks during a chucker’s bowling

 

[BouncerGuy]

LOL... see the excuses indian are making and then decide who is dishonest...

 

[BouncerGuy]

Whole Indian media is crying... Fans are crying on social media and here we have people who are crying as well about his action.


Loving this bhangra from India... Peak humor

 

[AAli98]

Can this bunch of Indians even play spin? Santner & mahraj whitewashed them & went home.

I strongly agree with this. Kings of shortcuts.

Best strike rate against spin since 2024 in T20 internationals

India 9.55
NZ 8.69
England 8.51
SA 8.46
Australia 8.27
West INdies 8.25
Pakistan 7.76

Test matches that were played on square turners is the proof.

“Bowling with a side‑arm or front‑arm action does not make it illegal. What matters is that the arm remains within the 15° flexion limit from horizontal to release point, regardless of the angle of delivery. If this were not the case, bowlers like Malinga or Pathirana would not be allowed to bowl. The challenge for fans is understanding that a high‑arm action, which isn’t perfectly straight arm does not automatically mean it’s illegal.”

If he understood himself then ICC would not have banned him.

So they struggle to play spin in the proper format, but are good in the junk format.. good stuff.

IMO Wasim raja was also having similar style of delaying tactics bowling

'Pearls of wisdom' on chucking coming from an ex player who was banned not once, but multiple times for chucking by the ICC. ​
