5 IPL Players Who Have Been Called for Chucking: Chucking is an illegal action in cricket. When the bowler straightens his arm while delivering a ball, it is called chucking. As per the rules of cricket, the rotation of the shoulder is mandatory so that the required velocity on the ball can be imparted. A bowler should never extend his arm while he is performing the bowling action. If the umpire thinks that he has chucked a ball, he can announce a non-ball in that case. Chuckling is considered illegal because this practice allows the bowler an unfair advantage. The advantage is more prominent among the spinners than the fast bowlers are.
What happens if a bowler gets reported for chucking?
If the umpire confirms that the bowler has done chucking, they mention it in their match report and submits it to the match referee. The match referred them sends a copy of the report and media statement to the team manager and ICC. The first step of the process begins with a review of the player’s action in the match. This is done by the ICC panel. They must furnish the report to ICC and conclude whether the bowler is guilty. If it is proved that the player has done the illegal action, he is suspended from international cricket until the error is remedied.
