MP Vaughan versus Sehwag ?

[Richard]

How many of them are there then? Almost all lbws (caughts are always 100% conclusive except in extraordinarily exceptional circumstances - 1 in several hundred) are fairly obviously either out or not-out. If one gets given out that was marginal, fair enough. Similarly, if it's not-out then fair enough.

B C Lara's average "should be" 18 for this match

LBW? What about catches?

Well, no, you can't have an average from a single innings. He'd have scored something like 18 (can't remember for certain if that was the score) had the catch been taken, though, obviously. Doesn't mean he didn't play well after that though.

What about catches? As I said in my earlier post, the decision on a catch which is inconclusive is rarer than the astronaut in space.

And Indian bowlers were merely OK. You seemingly didn't watch the last series between Australia and India.

Anyway, your suggestion is ridiculous because you put little value on an innings after said chance was given. Not only that, you must also start counting wickets that umpires failed to give.

Yes I did.

Nope. Just clearly less than runs scored when no chance has been given.

Not only that, you must also start counting wickets that umpires failed to give.

When have I ever not counted out decisions that were incorrectly given not-out? They're exactly the same as a dropped catch.

It's going around in circles...just like your arguments with KaZoH0lic and I could sense another one (or should that be the same one) brewing.
