DomainK Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 He is deaf and blind like the rest. So he is in the elite panel. Link to comment
sangrock Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 Stuart Clark's catch out was a horrifying decision! bat was NOWHERE near the ball! Link to comment
DomainK Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 Stuart Clark's catch out was a horrifying decision! bat was NOWHERE near the ball! Neither can the sound of pad can ever be mistaken for the sound of bat. He was napping when the appeal woke him up. He decided that given that the batsmen is no9 and that England are bowling so well, its more likely out than not out. Link to comment
Guest Hiten. Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 Sahiba better than Rauf ? You got to be kidding me mate. Indian Umpiring standards are pathetic and rightly so no Indian has been inducted in elite panel after Venkat Link to comment
cowboysfan Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 both teams deserve the bad decisions.they could have easily opted for the referrals. Link to comment
Kohum Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 Man - you are starting to conspire now :D Link to comment
kabira Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 Sahiba better than Rauf ? You got to be kidding me mate. Indian Umpiring standards are pathetic and rightly so no Indian has been inducted in elite panel after Venkat Totallly Disagree. All umpires are crap. Some make more mistakes than others. Saheba is no different. He should be in the panel. Look at the ICC panel. It has Shoka Desilva, Billy the Clown etc.. Link to comment
Mamu Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 I agree ALL UMPIRES are F'ED UP ! I have been calling for over hauling of the Umpiring System for more than 5 bloody years now. Rauf is probably one who makes less mistakes but on his day as he showed today -- can be quite a character. Good thing about Rauf is he is not prejudiced against any particular nation(atleast he has not shown that tendency so far) unlike some other dick heads we have had in the past. Again if we have a moron like Asoka De Silva in the panel -- that just about sums up the quality of umpires. Link to comment
mhr123 Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 I think Sahiba is better than him. Well desi can answer this.. he loves Sahiba!!! Link to comment
yoda Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 He is deaf and blind like the rest. So he is in the elite panel. as good a reason as any. :hysterical: Link to comment
rainy day Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 Asad Rauf is actually one of the better umpires, probably the 3rd or 4th best umpire right now and this speaks volumes about the quality of International umpiring. The only two consistently good umpires are Taufel and Dar. Link to comment
ShermanAve Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 Every umpire makes mistakes. Darr & Rauf are the top 2 umpires in elite panel followed by Taufell. Link to comment
vvvslaxman Posted August 22, 2009 Author Share Posted August 22, 2009 Every umpire makes mistakes. Darr & Rauf are the top 2 umpires in elite panel followed by Taufell. This series proved otherwise. Link to comment
Lord Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 Every umpire makes mistakes. Darr & Rauf are the top 2 umpires in elite panel followed by Taufell. I DONT THINK SO! rudi is still a fine umpire(despite his howlers in the Ashes) n Billy Doctrove is also good,certainly better than Rauf Link to comment
iHammad Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 If the ICC thinks he deserves to be there than he should be there? Why do u have a problem? And who the hell is Sahiba? Link to comment
Lord Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 If the ICC thinks he deserves to be there than he should be there? Why do u have a problem? And who the hell is Sahiba? ICC also thought that Darell Hair deserves to be there.why did Pakis have a problem? Link to comment
iHammad Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 ICC also thought that Darell Hair deserves to be there.why did Pakis have a problem? because he was crazy/blind!!!! and who is sahiba? Link to comment
Lord Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 because he was crazy/blind!!!! so is Rauf,well blind atleast and who is sahiba? http://www.cricinfo.com/ci/content/player/34544.html Link to comment
Gambit Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 He gave a terrific decision today on the first ball of the third day's play. He was probably the only guy in the world who thought it was not out and he was right. Link to comment
