Seems like throwing, not throwing. This is what the law says: "Law 24, clause 3 defines a fair delivery with respect to the arm:A ball is fairly delivered in respect of the arm if, once the bowler's arm has reached the level of the shoulder in the delivery swing, the elbow joint is not straightened partially or completely from that point until the ball has left the hand. This definition shall not debar a bowler from flexing or rotating the wrist in the delivery swing." After biomechanical tests conducted in the nineties, it was discovered that it is virtually impossible for the human arm to legally "bowl" the ball without any flex of the elbow. Thus according to the old laws, "legal" bowling would be practically impossible and something had to be done. The ICC decided to set an elbow extension limit. This was 10 degrees fast bowlers, 7.5 degrees for medium pacers , and 5 degrees for spin bowlers.
After the Muralitharan issue, the ICC carried out a test on all bowlers through video footage during the 2004 Champions Trophy in England. The test brought up some startling results: ninety-nine percent of all bowlers tested were found to flex their elbow to some degree, which was often much greater than the limit set at the time. After a review by an expert panel, the ICC decided to raise the limit to 15 degrees for all bowlers. This limit was chosen as the ICC believed that any flexing of the elbow above 15 degrees would be visibly noticeable. Though this did cause some initial controversy, it was widely acknowledged as a sensible move.
Rest assured that if anyone seems to throw, his action will be studied minutely using high-tech methods; Lasith Malinga has an unorthodox bowling action, but unorthodox does not mean illegal. Cricket is a highly technical game and one should not expose one's ignorance by making such flippant comments.

yes ur right ialso think everytime i watch his bowling action.but nobody bothers,players intellectuals ,ICC Board, Hats of for all people for their ignorance.
Gavaskar mate, this time you have gone too far...to link the tragic passing of David Hookes to behaviour of the current Aussie team is outrageous...i as an aussie indian am appalled at your statements...do you have any compassion for the Hookes family?...u have for sure lost my respect...
be warned indians for a 'whacking' from Australia in the WC... it the price the indian team will have to pay for irresponsible comments coming from its higher ranks (or what u guys call the karma effect)...
