Indians have done the right thing in recalling Ian Bell back; there are no two opinions on this matter.
Forget what Ravi Shastri and Sourav Ganguli may say in this matter that had it been they, they would not have called Ian Bell back.
What happened to VVS in WI is really a shame. To me it appeared that the whole method of getting VVS out in that manner was preplanned and did not happen naturally. The wicket keeper had waited deliberately for VVS after having gone inside the crease, choosing to come out assuming the ball was dead. The wicket keeper in consonance with Chanderpaul who incidentally was the Captain removed the bails and got VVS out. Chanderpaul should be ashamed. Or the entire WI team had noticed VVSs penchant to pull out of the crease after assuming the ball deaad more sooner than others and planned his dismissal that way.
Now dont compare Bajjis dismissal with Ian Bells and draw parallels; it is not comparable.
What Indians did was the right thing and I believe almost all nations would have done the same thing too. May be even WI too would have done the same, or atleast reviewed their decision had India protested. But it was not the end of the session but during a session.
YOu cant play the game in that way, surely!
Now, the Vaughans insensibility of suggesting Vaseline on VVSs bat.
History of Vaseline in cricket is the sole prerogative of England with John Lever.
It can equally be said that Vaseline was not on bat but on the Ball!

It was batsmans mistake that he thought it was four, not others. It is not right spirit if a batsman says ithaought it was fulltoss but it was yorker not my mistake
Cricket is said to be a gentleman's game but it is has been proved not by the Englishmen. They booed the Indians when they came back to field after tea inspite of a decision which was technically correct. And the Indians as usual withdrew the decsion which all say is fair and in the spirit of the game. Why couldn't the Englishmen do the same...concede that the decision was right. We are still scared of the Englishmen !!!!!!!!

I ALSO THINK THAT DHONI SHOULD NOT HAVE CALLED BELL BACK.BUT AT THE END OF THE DAY, DHONI DESERVES TO BE PRAISED FOR THE GESTURE.

am sorry i intended this message for another person. Sorry. and you are right they can rig it with DRS.
it is certainly false news, hussain is NOT ENDORSING DRS for sake of india, WAKE UP AND SMELL ROSEs, he even got his children involved in this BS.
there are better ways than DRS, 6 cameras, high resolution and fastest frame available in Japan and korea for each team to record proceedings separately.
no doubt, DRS tech. and umpire did help Peitersen score double hundred and boost Angrez confidence so they can hit indian bowlers like T20.
aggression on Laxman shows the intent and pre-planned moves. Angrez were studying all the batting moves by indians and give no chance to indian even if the BALL IS 1 millimeter away by using TECHNOLOGY.
ANGREZ are using automated technology calibration to trap india by tech. Not much different from how business and miltary technology was/is used between india, pak, china, etc after they divided everyone on contentious religion and boundary issues.. All videshis apply the same policies as friendly blocks or opposing blocks.
this was the planning behind DRS and india agreed for partial DRS to fall into that trap. even worse, the angrez want to use technology bashing to make laxman loose confidence. what a pParasite and rRodent race this has become.

You are an employee of some newspaper or tv media. We have been playing cricket without DRS for decades and decades. Only when the The DRS became an issue the frequency of these howlers from umpires increased of late if you notice. More mistakes are being made now than before DRS came into spotlight. Definitely a hand of the ICC. IT is as much a predictive system as that of an umpire. And prediction of bounce depends on the pitches, bowlers height, quality of the cricket ball etc. People like you are traitors, who will sell our country. No wonder India was ruled by Invaders for thousands of years because of traitors like you. I will quote exactly what one politician said, "Journalists can be bought cheaper than a CALL GIRL for a few thousand rupees."

Its not more mistakes are made by umpire now then ever; its only that now we have cameras with ultramotion, hawk-eye and other technique which are exposing the umpire's decision; If such have been the case earlier I am sure that umpires like Dicky Bird and David Shephard would not have been so famous; something what happened to Steve bucknor in his ending days, he was little late to retire and the technology was in to put question on his decisions;
Naseer Hussain said it was a DISGRACE INDIA didn't take the DRS. First of all Harbhajan Singh was given out despite a huge inside edge then Naseer Hussain says it is a disgrace that Indian board has not taken the DRS. You can imagine how pissed off any Indian would get. Then Ravi Shastri gave it back to him after the match in the studio, saying, "who was he to call India a disgrace, HE (Naseer) is jealous we are NO.1, the English are jealous we are No.1 in tests and are World Champions, every time you pick up a paper you see the British press only hitting at BCCI and the Indian team negatively. They have never been Bloody no.1 in test cricket so he can't take the face we are ruling cricket and we have IPL." This statement is no where to be seen in the Indian Media... because... because the Indian media has also been criticising the team in the same manner. Remember the Times of India article "Endulkar" back in 2006-07 saying Tendulkar should retire when he was not getting big runs that is centuries, even though he was scoring reasonably.

You are out of your mind. People like you are a "disgrace" to India. You are making irrational statements. Had UDRS been there, the umpire from S.Africa (Erasmus) could never have adjudged Pietersen and Trott not out.
The basic objective of UDRS is to rectify howlers from the umpires.
India has been at the receiving end of some bad decisions both in West Indies and England. We could have easily avoided them had the actual UDRS been there.
Ravi Shastri is there to praise BCCI because he is paid to do so.

First understand the fact that ravi shastri is a chamcha of BCCI and is on their payroll.
Now, look at things objectively. Had India opted for the actual UDRS, Pietersen would have been adjudged out. Harbhajan Singh would not have been out. Yes, the URDS is not 100% because when it comes to LBWs, it only shows you a predictive path of the ball.
But you can't deny the fact some obviously bad decisions can be reversed with UDRS and Indian cricket is harming itself by not opting for UDRS.
Instead of being unnecessarily jingoistic, look at things objectively.

gavaskar and shastri only think of BCCI and make comments which only make BCCI happy. Gavaskar acts himself as he is cricket Book. See his ODI record only 2 centuries. when he is playing the test matches he was playing for himself and most matches were draW.

Guys watevr hapnd yestrday was wrong.. Bell should have accepted the umpires decision.. but still guys he got out later by adding 22 runs.. but other batsmen are thr.. Prior is hitting the shit out of indian bowlers.. even that tailender Bresnen is on 47.. Indian bowlers are just lucky at times to get wickets.. but otherwise they useless.. Dhoni captaincy has been bad.. fields placement had been bad..and its not about Indian batmens not batting well.. England is bowling really well..perfect Line ,lenght and pace to trublem the best batting line up in the world.. i feel if Sachin, Sehwag, Dravid, laxman were in other team and they were facing Indian bowlers then each of them could have scored double century..I am just saying dat if you love cricket thn give credit to the team playing well..
