Sri Lanka's Muralitharan -- Chuck me if you can!

Its crazy to start accusing Murali of chucking so late in his career, just when he has broken the world record. Why didn't the ICC take serious action prior to this?

Personally, I think his bowling action is very very suspect. But again, why wait till a bowler breaks an all time record before making this an issue. Clearly, the Aussies are worried that Warne will not be able to beat Murali's record no matter what given that Murali still has a lot more cricketing years left. How else do you explain the Australian PM jumping into the fray! Ian Chappel's recent article on the issue was interesting.
