Ugliest. Action. Ever.
That being said, it obviously works for him though.
really?
I thought it was great to watch.
Not something you would teach, but one of those natural things that could be a gain.
dont bowl there

:o Was like watching Paul Adams bowl. Compelling yet cringe inducing at the same time.
Would agree with that though, seems like one of these blokes like Tait or Malinga who hopefully wont have too much to do with the clone producers that are modern bowling coaches.
What is the Pakistani for "Tangles"?
Umar Gul impressed me. Consistently at 145kph and good control.
I think his emergence and that of Tanvir will signal the end for Shoaib.
it's horrible enough to umpire guys like that. bouncing in off their wrong foot. argh. How would it be playing it?
damn good bowler though, good pace, good bounce, good swing. They did well when they shook the coconut tree to find him.

Saw it and thought that the action was a little dodgey.

I wasn't cringing at all. First ball i was like WTF was that, but within a couple of balls i could imagine what kind of damage he could do with a swinging ball with his weird arm action. Get's me very excited seeing such potential.
Don't get me started on bowling coaches. Ugh. Always wanting to change bowlers. How many young aussie bowlers have gone to the academy and come out worse?
Let them be.
