DONT SPOIL THE GENTLE MAN GAME
by siva on Jun 29, 2006 05:49 AM

It clearly shown that Lara the WI captain who got afraid of Hard Hitting Dhoni, Shows his dissent to umpire in his decision making.First ICC should answer one question whether Umpires should follow the rules that given by ICC or order by a fielding captain.This is unfair for this game.The Rules favour the batsmen if there is more doubt in his dismissal.Tv Replay also could not confirm that Dhoni is out or not out.So there is no mistake on umpires.It is not good for the game that a Batsmen(good hitting) is urged by the Fielding captain to go to Pavillion.If htis incident taken lightly then there is no need for umpires.The Fielding captain himself can make the Decision that a Batsmen is OUT or NOTOUT. ICC's Rule should same to a LEGEND and also a NEW COMER. This is the right way to kept the Sprit of the game glowing .Then only we can Globalize this game . The rule sould not bend down for record makers. So ICC please DONT SPOIL THE GENTLEMAN GAME .Because we love that game that much.
