This world cup is a witness of worst class umpiring. It is really difficult to understand why does Umpires favours a team or rather furious of a team. The Umpires in this tournament have not played their part honestly, they delivered under pressure as per their whims and fancies??????? Whenever there was an appeal from teams like Australia they bent towards the bowler but in other case the benefit of doubt was given to batsman. Its is really a matter of shame for apex bodies like ICC that the learned council members are still not paying any attention for improving umpire quality. Where are Umpires like venkataraghvan or Dickey Bird or ......... ? If their is a scarcity of qualified and quality Umpires, why should someone else suffer because of other person's incompetency ? In a tournament like World Cup where evry thing is on stake can we afford to tolerate nonsense? ICC, please decide now .... where to go and how to go .

Steve Bucknor is a part of the match fixing syndicate. There are many such matches where he has also turned results of entire match.
Ashok De Silva of Sri Lanka was another one involved in match fixing.
Count the number of decisions that have gone against Tendulkar and Saurav Ganguly in crucial matches.
