India v Australia: Third Test

[Amit]

I thought when sehwags was still there at that time but when the 6th wicket of sehwag went i thought no chance of india winning the series and the test match now , with the like s of mcgrath, warne, gillespie, kascprovicz who have bowled well in these conditions and this series, and how australia as a team has played in this series , deserve to win it cuase they have outplayed india , and if india win this series , it was just lucky, unless they can bat out today and tommorow draw this match , and win the next one, to draw the series . but the chances agiasnt this australia team the odds are heavily stacked agiasnt them.to bat out this test match with world class bowlers.

India looking down and out to save this test match 8 wickets gone still 33 overs left in the day it looks like to be a first test series win for australia for 35 years I knew one day this would come to a end and that day is today australian fans will be happy and cheerful.

[Amit]

Australia need just 2 more wickets to win this series for the first time in 35 years , gillespie only needs 1 wicket of the 2 avaidable, to get his first 10 wicket hual.

in brief I MUST TELL YOU that the umpiring in thie series has been totally one sided. So in this regard india has been the loser here;however their overall standard of play has been poor.

That's an interesting comment. I know that one of the umpires is Pakistan's Aleem Dar who IMO is one of the best out there today. Any specific complaints or you are just unhappy in general?

[Amit]

I think havving steve buckner in a match which has india in gives india bad luck and he gives wrong decisitions to india . and most of indias appealing for LBW , 1/4 of them should have been given out. the umpiring in this series has been poor , and one sided , which is unfiar to india I hink the ICC should look at this.

[Amit]

I think the 2 fairest umpires are david shepard, and aleem dar , those 2 umpires are fair and honest I think it should be dal and shepard in world cup finals not bucknar, BUCKNAR Gives poor decistions, and is onesided ,in this series in the first test match there is evidence of that bad LBW decistions given out which involved bat in it.and appealing for cuaght behind the wicket when it just brushed the pads.UMPIRES SHOULD BE FAIR TO BOTH TEAMS NOT ONE SIDED.

Bucknor is a pretty fair umpire for me, although he is too reluctant to give lbw's sometimes. You are always going to get some bad decisions but I doubt it's deliberate...I think India just need to accept they got well beaten here. It's not even close.
