Hi Ho All,
I wouldn't say biased, just plain bad. Although with me it's not an issue as
such. I come from the school of walking and so Symmonds is far more at fault
than the umpire. The stumping, although probably out, at least can go with
the benefit of the doubt, as the Laws state it should.
Good fight back today, with an equally favourable clanger for India from an
ump regarding lbw ... though I haven't seen it, just gone on what the radio
said.
Potentially becoming a good game.
