Dont mind being a minority here but if u cant survive 2 sessions on a reasonable flat track, even if a couple of decisions are dodgy then u have no reason to complain in my book.In all this cacaphony nobody seems to mind all our stars ( with or without the bollywood ones) showing zero application. Hell if the aussies had been set a target of 333 they might just have gone for it. remember the great indian cautious approach of not enforcing follow ons when 300 ahead or setting targets of 500 to be absolutely sureof not losing rather than winning!!!! And indians shld b the last one to complain of unnecessary appealing. Our record at home shows how we too dont mind getting the odd Lara and Peterson wicket off dodgy calls.

You might be right. But what can bowlers do in such a pressure situation, which I believe is caused by the wrong decisions of umpires. The top two batsman were given out when the team is critical situation trying to save the match

surely 3 batsmen dont need to get out in 5 deliveries to michael clarke

If each batsman was given two chances, then every team including Holland can win the game against Australains. Not 1,2..There are too many decisions took the game beyond the senses

Thanks, Nilesh, for crawling out of the woodwork. Now, where did I keep that can of insecticide...?
