Umpire Hazare removed from IPL for turning down run-out appeal against KP.

The IPL has stood down umpire Sanjay Hazare from the match officials panel for the rest of the tournament. There has been no specific reason provided for the decision, but Hazare had erroneously shot down a run-out appeal against Kevin Pietersen without referring to the third umpire when Delhi Daredevils hosted Rajasthan Royals on May 3. The batsman was out of his crease. IPL chairman Ranjib Biswal indicated there was a strong case for Hazare's removal. "He has been removed. There are many reasons," Biswal told ESPNcricinfo. It is understood that the message was communicated to Hazare by BCCI operations manager MV Sridhar. In the seventh over, Pietersen was sent back when he sought a leg bye and wicketkeeper Sanju Samson found his target. TV replays clearly showed the Daredevils captain was well short of his ground, but astonishingly Hazare, who was standing at square leg, turned down the appeal. Both Shane Watson, Royals' captain, and Rajat Bhatia, the bowler, were told by Hazare that Pietersen had reached the safety of his crease. "I was confident that he made his ground," Hazare told ESPNcricinfo. "I was very clear about that. And hence I did not refer to the third umpire." It could not be confirmed whether Royals had lodged a complaint. According to Hazare he was asked by the match referee about the incident later. "I told him the same thing," he said. "It was a human error. Once I had made the decision I could not correct it." Hazare later officiated as the third umpire when Mumbai Indians faced Royal Challengers Bangalore at the Wankhede Stadium. That, it turned out, was his last game in the tournament.

What about the chump who gave McCullum leg beforeoff a ball well missing the leg and not giving Jadeja for one which was clearly hitting the leg. That ump needs to be gone ASAP. He is simply not able to see LBWs in real time.

This is ludicrous. What impression are we trying to give the world about our Umpires?
The world are very well aware of how ridiculous our umpires are. Throw that Kulkarni out as well.

They might not be as good as their colleagues from other countries. But this is no way to treat a mistake. Shakoor Rana was supported by his board, Darrell Hair by his and Steve Bucknor by his board. And we respond with appeasement. The response to a mistake is not humiliation. The response is talking behind closed doors and training them well.

Darell Hair was ripped apart during the game by the English commies, and post match, by the former cricketers. The OP also says there were other reasons. Wonder what that is. Also, these guys have been making endless blunders. Its more of an embarresment for India if they are persisted with.

I think our Board chose the easier option, by deciding to appease. If we are consistently producing poor umpires, we need to take a closer look at our system. No one likes being hated and reprimanded publicly. I agree, the umpire made a major goof-up, but don't humiliate him this way. He's a human being.

Also another thing is INdian umpires can easily be cajoled into give batsman out by repeated appealing. I remember Gould or someone telling the bowler.. just appeal once. Why can't these bozos do the same.

Huh??? this guy was let go after one wrong mistake which is very unfair, he thought kp was safe, he made a mistake big deal it happens. bucknor made countless other mistakes bu that not going to third umpire was similar to this incident. Aleem dar gave Stuart broad not out when whole stadium knew he was out. no umpire can be perfect they make mistakes it happens, going to third umpire is not natural as it is not available in local matches so his reaction was the one he is so used to, IE making all the decisions by himself no need to crucify for one mistake.

Probably he did, Darling. But lets look at the bigger point, i.e., his track record. If a serial offender can be given a let-off, why not Hazare?
