In the sport of cricket, strict rules govern the method of bowling the ball. The rules relates to the bending of the arm at the elbow, the extent of which has always been open to interpretation by the umpires. More recently, the ICC has attempted to codify the maximum permissible flexing of the elbow as 15 degrees. When a player is found by the umpire to have delivered the ball contrary to those rules, the umpire will call a ''no ball'' and he is said to have been ''called for throwing''. Where public opinion is that a player's bowling action appears to be that he routinely throws, he is said to have a ''suspect'' or an ''illegal'' action, or more derogatorily, he is said to be a ''chucker''. The issue is often highly emotive with accusers considering that deliveries with an illegal action are akin to cheating. Over the years, a number of players have been called in Test cricket and One Day Internationals, invariably creating controversy and occasionally destroying cricket careers. Often the player has been able to modify his action to appease his critics and the umpires, but more commonly, especially when the bowler has been called on more than one occasion, his career is international cricket is effectively ended. For many spinners, especially off-spinners, they are susceptible to be called for throwing when they have a front-on approach because the elbow gets in front of the wrist upon release, especially bowling doosra. This is a list of international cricketers called for throwing. Those marked in bold were called for throwing in a Test match. *Ernie Jones (AUS) – called in 1898 at Melbourne *C. B.
