So lads....England batted abysmylly no doubts on that but
No side on replay shown for ishants wicket with no ball either side
2 close lbws given when batsman hit above knee roll or with sharp spin (crawley given not out yet hitting bails somehow) DRS showing them clipping....
Jack leach caught yet camera behind appears to show it bounce and yet no zoom in or other camera angle until after given out.

I think the onfield umpires have been pretty decent for the tests but there has just seemed something off with the decisions using technology since England won the 1st test
Haway put the tin foil hat away

The Broad LBW decision now is the only decision that the onfield umpires have got wrong all morning against us anyway. Its beyond ridiculous that people complain about LBWs being given out LBW when they are LBW. I'm sorry bit it is just complete and utter bias. A couple of years ago the Windies were over here and had 8 consecutive umpiring decisions that went against them and there wasn't a hint of cheating being discussed at all. Complete sour grapes.
 
Measuring this perfect. Foakes just batting time, we have enough runs. Just need the lights to kick in and Jimmy’s gonna roll them out for 30 like their last pink ball test. Selectors have hit the nail on the head. Or something like that.

Most of them have been umpires call though. That’s the problem as no matter what the ump is right. If he doesn’t give it out, then he’s right, he gives it out, he is right again

now these local umpires are under huge pressure from kohli ashwin and shastri here. They know they will be pummelled in the Indian press and will lose out on ipl gigs

so giving the close ones out they can’t lose as long as it’s in India’s favour

lets see their innings though to see if they are so quick on the close ones
 
:lol: :lol: The ump sharp had the finger up, knowing he could not be wrong either way. These lads are being played by the Indian team.

they annoy ashwin, kohli and shastri no nice ipl gig.

we will never know if the standard neutral umps would have been better
Agreed, DRS shows them clipping bails and fingers straight up. Neutral umpires with DRS behind them have tended not to give the super close ones knowing the fielding team can review if they think its a shocker.
Everytime England get hit on the pads its seems like the umpires finger is straight up

I wouldn't suggest they are corrupt, but they do know how to play the percentages. They can give the umpires calls more often than not and it must make a big difference.
 
It is though, I’ve provided evidence from an earlier post that I did in fact call the dubiousness of the bounce on DRS earlier on. You called it sour grapes, but my first mention of it was when Crawley was given not out. I’m not keen on being called a liar, which you insinuated when you said I hadn’t said anything about the Crawley ‘not out’.

Call me partisan, biased, a twat, no bother. Don’t call me a liar though.
It’s alright, when the Indians bat those won’t be given.
I didn’t call you a liar mate I just pointed out your prejudice shown clearly in your above statement which you fail to acknowledge
All I am saying is that you can’t really blame any umpire bias for the position that England are in
 
Personally I think it's half India getting a lot things going their way and England performing like drains.
We’ve batted about as bad as I can ever remember tbh. Wouldn’t have made a difference if they gave them all out as they’d have got out next ball anyway. Heads completely gone for them all. Did you see how pissed off Root was with the way Kohli was going on? He needs to be calmer than that or you won’t score runs.

No I didn't mate but I think its sad that likes of India and Australia would rather act like arseholes to win a bloody cricket match :lol:, oh but Virat is all emotional on the pitch ;).
