no i dont think so.only those people who cant reverse the ball or in those countries where you cant reverse the ball are saying all this.its an art and to learn this art bowlers have to practice a lot.pakistan team have mastered this art and few bowlers from india also know how to reverse.besides these two teams there is hardly any team who knows how to reverse.

i dont think reverse s2wing is an illegal activity in the game of cricket
cricket is a gentlemans game and as artistic skills are required to excell in the game
similarly reverse swing is an art and greats like wasim akram and waqar r just exelled in the art of reverse swing

Reverse swing is never an illegalact...As you have mentioned,it is the ability or the craftmanship of the bowler to get the reverse swing going...It needs a lot of practice and endurence and the bowler has to be precise and very much accurate....Its a treat to the eyes to watch the Pakistani legends like Waqar,Wasim and many more others mastering it and finishing it with precision....

I like Good Cricket and i think Reverse Swing is not illegal.
Reverse swing is secret weapon of Asian Bowlers Specially Pakistani Bowlers and rest of teams speacially England and Australian batsman cant face it, so they called it illegal ..

Who said its illeagal, I think its an art. The ball start reversing only when it gets old and looses some part of thread and some leather. I think most of the pakistanis are good exponet of reverse swing, they know how to make the ball. even afridi has given the interview on about "how to make the ball, on batting paradise pitches it is like a night mare for the bowlers so bowlers must make the ball in oerdr to survive."
