After we saw the reply it was clearly visible that the ball had not touched anywhere near the hand or gloves. If the player can be fined for mis conduct then why not the Umpire for a wrong decision? The match could have been easily won had Yuvraj not given out. This way the umpire may be bribed and his decision can change the whole game and still you cann't appeal for a wrong decision. This is bull shit rule.

When umpire gave not out for Murali Karthi in the final one day played between India and Australia!!Where are we, it matters a lot when it is done to an Indian. If it is for others then we make the credit!! It is all in the game, take it sportive, even if failure of Yuvraj should have lifted the game, but it dint happen. First we need to fight for victory then there is not need to worry for this kind of incidents
ICC pleads when an umpire gives a wrong decision that "... after all.... they are human beings and bound to make mistake(s).... but the same thign does not apply to the INDIAN Batsmen... especially...."
Umpires in the Elite panel are professionals and should refer to the 'Technology' which is assisting a great deal. I feel, even for LBW decisions... the technology should be used.
First Umpire shastri should be punished as his wrong decision leads to India's loss. But no news about this. How can he out Yuvraj while ball is not even passed nearby bat. Atleast umpires can use third umpire or talk to them.
Yuvaraj is not out but the umpire has given him out. It is a mere frustration. Third umpire should have been consulted if the umpire has got doubt. or the third umpire he can view thoroughly the help of TV replay and declare whether the batsman is out or not
I THINK DAYS WILL COME IN FUTURE THERE WILL NOT BE ANY UMPIRE STANDING AND ALL THE DECISIONS WOULD BE GIVEN FROM THE THIRD UMPIRES ROOM. THEN IMAGINE HOW NICE IT WOULD HAVE BEEN.
Why a player charged fined for showing dissent from his match fees. Why not a Umpire. Every time a player charged for fine specialy from sub-continents. Always ICC backs its umpire when ever they do a mistake they have not charged for fine from their match which they have conducting. Why not ICC make a pannel to view the umpire's role in every matches. If a umpire had found guilty then ICC should take a action against them ban for one or more matches or fine from their match fees. Even a player have a right to complain against a umpier in ICC. If a umpire had doubt he should reffered to 3rd umpire. If such thing happend then the match going to intersting phase. ICC should considered it.

I really agree that Shastri guy should be fined 100% of his match fee for such an idiotic decision.

Suresh shastri is rediculous ... he always gives decision against indians.
There must a chance given to the 3rd umpire to overrule the ground umpire, if the decision made by the ground umpire is found to be wrong. It was not a series deciding match, but a mistake is a mistake!!
Aleem dar made 2 mistakes in the series deciding match in the 7th ODI against England, a few days ago. He confessed a couple of months later that he had made a mistake (or mistakes). What's the fun? The decision had decided the fate of that series by then. Time for BCCI/ICC to think on improving the umpiring standards!
In the same match yesterday, Imran nazeer was plump in front of the wicket by a couple of deliveres from pathan. On both the occassions, it was the same umpire. I dont know where was his finger at that time. Busy?
