International Regular
Just wondering why there is the rule that if the ball pitches outside of leg stump you cannot be adjudged to be out LBW. I don't like this rule because on the face of it you're leg is blocking the balls path to the stump, doesn't matter to me where it pitches. Is there any deeper meaning to it? If i was an umpire and it was a 50/50 decision if the ball pitched outside leg i'd give it out anyway, do a tiffin.
