    Overrated Bowlers

    Certainly not ! Just a Shoaib empathiser. :) What I meant was that so many believe that injuries have not allowed Lee to fulfill his potential, but yet havent hesitated to criticise Shoaib in other threads, when the fact is that he faces the same problems as Lee (injuries), but only worse...

    And yet there are threads ridiculing Shoaib for 'lacking a ticker' and that sort of stuff when he gets injured.

    Thats a preposterous argument. How do you evaluate umpires mate ? Do you just excuse umpires for 3 wrong decisions in an innings ?

    I guess it has to do with his test record.

    Except for the run out one( which was probably a result of ambiguous knowledge of rules) , what do you find objectionable about these?

    Overrated Bowlers

    Couldnt it be a psychological thing though? Its all well for us to sit on our a$$es here saying that he must shorten his run up. But it could be that he 'feels' fast only with the lengthy run up. Things are not always black and white. He could still be as fast from a shorter run up, but if he...

    Actually all the Pakistani supporters did toady was to mention the wrong decisions. You think members shouldnt be allowed to mention wrong decisions on the forums ?

    No. It means you apparently do not follow the threads of the other series . For example, the SA-Eng one.

    Ah! I should have realised that the driving force behind your arguments is patriotism rather than any nostalgia for the umpires in the game. Believe me, these arguments stand no matter which team gets the benefit of the decisions. Cricket wont be any less appealing.

    (1) Technicians do not make decisions. A computer program aided by multiple angle camera inputs does. That in no way makes it inferior to umpires. (2) Why would spectators not watch the matches in the stadia if decisions are more accurate than ever ? The game is the same. The players would...

    The Australian team - A disgrace to the game

    ahem ......Slater 2001 in India, first test. Bogus catch claimed as taken. Ring a bell? Ponting whinging to daddy CA about a certain pitch which blew away any chance he had of claiming even a little credit for the teams victory in India...whole conviniently ignoring a pitch for a game vs Sri...

    By when do you think India will become number one team in the World?

    People do not need reasons to believe that. You see, these are seers who know so much about the game that they can accurately predict that India will never make it to the top. God bless their little unbiased souls.
