India is the largest cricket playing nation and also major contributors to the income to ICC. However, ICC don't find any of the Indian Umpire to officiate any matches abroad as well in any important event like World Cup. ICC always prefer Umpires from England, Australia, Newzealand and they are getting better remuneration than umpires from Asian countries.

Ha ha ha. Why tie? England was sure to win by 20 wickets at that stage. Only 112 were needed in 412 overs. :-)
It was correct decision. What is 1 ball remaining and 1 run required to win? Same situation umpire gives out but run is completed . On review decision is overruled as not out.what happens then? Who wins, why should the batsman be denied the run? It could even have been an inside edge.

it was incorrect decision according to the cricket laws/playing conditions for wc 2015. in your scenario , yes batsmen would be denied the run.

Good one. So on the last ball the bowler should just appeal and refer to DRS. Fielding side will win automatically.

unfortunately i didn't draft them playing conditions , you must mail your concerns to the icc :)
Match umpires should refer this case to third umpire for the verification of rules and then could have taken he decision. Kumar Dharmasena always impatiently take the decisions at critical moments. Only loss is Taylor could have made his century, which is a important moment for a cricketer and that to in World cup match.
Te Australian team should play the game more professionally. They have to learn so much from the Early 80`s and late 70`s West Indies team. Being such a strong team the Australians still sledge and some of the Australian players (you know by now whom I am pointing) are spoiling the gentleman`s game. Being such a strong team expected to win the world cup 2015 should play more professionally.
