If one person was unhappy about Murali's achievement, and had no problems saying so, it was Barry Jarman (AUSSIE! AUSSIE! AUSSIE! OI! OI! OI!), the former Australian captain and wicketkeeper. Jarman was the first match official to raise suspicions about Murali's actions. "It makes a joke of the game – it makes me sick talking about it," Jarman was quoted as saying in The Daily Telegraph of Sydney. "Everyone knows he bowls illegally. I saw his photo in the paper the other day and put and old school protractor on his arm. It was bent at 48 degrees [the legal limit for spin bowlers is 10 degrees]. I put it up in the pub to show everyone. He is a lot worse than the University of Western Australia people reckon he is."

Aussie - meet the grapes! Sour ain't they!
