Indeed most of us would be dropping this and moving on... not at all worth the time :) To put it like this... the sport and spirit can be taken away by three sets of people... the cricketers, the umpires and the officials. All of them are humans... all of them can make mistakes... but cricket as it stands today, when mistakes are ones that cross the line of any moral acceptability that questions the spirit, it is only the players that get the stick!

I initially had sympathy with India however the longer this saga has gone on for and the fact the ICC have not stood up to India's "bully boy" tactics the far less sympathy I have for India. This episode is bad for the game and India's response to a few situations going against them is CHILDISH!!!!! For umpires it will never be the same again. Great response….
