2 of the worst International Umpires r from SL Kumar Dharmasena and Ashoka Desilva both r former national team players.Ashoka Desilva has made so many mistakes in the ongoing series between PAK and ENG but thanks to DRS some of them were corrected through the system.But the mistakes done with Dharmasena were not reviewed as DRS is not implemented in ODIs.My opinion is that ODIs should be reduced to 45 overs and Decision Review System should be implemented ASAP to reduce umpire mistakes.These 2 Srilankan Umpires should not be included in the panel of umpires for important series like the WC 2011.

Many people is batting for UDRS; however I feel, the current system allowed in Aus/Eng mathes are even more depend on luck, since you only have a limited number of referrals; if you are unlucky to choose the wrong one, then you end up loosing out more.
SAURABH TIWARI who was recommended by Sachin Tendulkar to be in the Indian ODI team has not been played in a single match. He was also in the squad for asia cup series but not in the playing XI. Now in this triangular series ,when Rohit Sharma and Ravinder Jadeja are out of form ,why is Saurabh Tiwari being ignored. I think DHONI and CO Does not want any new comer in batting to sheild the old players. SAURABH TIWARI will loose confidence. He should be tried in the playing XI so that we prepare for the world

I guess Dhoni didnt want Saurabh Tiwari in squad as tiwari looks a lot like him, plays like he used to. He is not comfortable him being compared with tiwari.
