Thanks for the abuse, it really helps your argument.

Show me a test match where there isn't at least one decision that could go either way? The umpiring was poor, as every simple Australian on this site has agreed to, but you don't want to see that.

What i and everyone else is saying. If you're good enough, you will still prevail anyway. The fact that you have to blame the umpire for the fact you didn't draw a game I find disappointing. I would want to hope you would be trying WIN, not draw the game. And at no stage did India ever look like doing that. yes Symonds got a call in his favour in the 1st innings, and made you pay. Are you one-eyed enough to believe that india don't get the same calls at other times???

The umpires are human, and yes make mistakes, some are better than others, and sometimes your team gets the bad calls... It's called sport, and it's always been that way. the thing is the champions rise above it, and prevail anyway. They make they are in position to win, even when things go against them, because they will.

Do you think Australia has won all those games in the past 10 years by getting all the 50-50 and bad calls go their way? Of course not, but they win anyway. Umpiring, pitch conditions, retirements, the way the wind blows, it doesn't mater, the champion will prevail. And India will probably lose 4-0 no mater who umpires the games.
