comment on the 3rd umpire's decisions again MI in 45th match

[varungupta]

well we all know how doubtful those decisions were!!!!
& now that a great like Sachin also raising questions over these decisions , i think the there was something wrong. Also what was surprising , was that all of those decisions went against Mumbai.
Had any one of the decisions gone to Mumbai's favor , the result of game would have been different. Shouldn't IPL commitee or BCCI take a look into this matter??? what do u say??????

Whatever happened that day is an history now. If those decisions had gone Mumbai's way doesn't make any sense now what makes sense is we need to work on it and make sure that these things don't happen again. We all know umpiring standards of Indian Umpires are very low. If everything is going against your team and no bowler is able to get you wickets than there is only one man who can change the complexion of the game and that is an Indian Umpire.

Level of umpiring particular in this tournament is below average. First Dada raise the question mark and then Veeru and now most respected player of this tournament is also raising the question mark. That one run was really costly for Mumbai Indians .. as they lost to one run only.

From India Venkatraghwan was the only umpire who was of International quality ...

I find it a little odd and surprising for a great batsman like sachin to put the entire blame on umpires for losing the match.
esp when it was primarily their own fault of losing so many wickets a the end leading to their defeat.
otherwise even with those decisions, they were cruising so easily towards victory for almost 15 overs of their chase.
Since he is a big icon and whole world pays careful attention to what he says, So sachin should not make such a big hue and cry about issue of that single unlucky run-out Umpiring decision of Pomerbasch.

You should not forget that Mumbai lost the match with one run only and he is also a human being and no one like defeat ... so such kind of decisions really ...

Look if such mistake made by field umpire than that will be total different story but when third umpire who got every facility in his cabin inspite of that such decisions ...

you know what happened in the first semi-final?
well this is what had happened

a delhi fielder had doubted whether he caught the dive catch properly
umpire billy bowden , instead of refering it to the third umpire gave it not out.....
is it fair?

Well, one cannot do much if the onfield umpire is himself confident of the decision he is giving.

And Billy Bowden is a far far better umpire among others. Also this decision turned out to be correct after watching replay on TV also. So thats no big deal.
