Change the ball-tampering and lbw laws
It's the ideal time for administrators to redress the imbalance between bat and ball
www.espncricinfo.com
The new lbw law should simply say: "Any delivery that strikes the pad without first hitting the bat and, in the umpire's opinion, would go on to hit the stumps is out regardless of whether or not a shot is attempted."
Forget where the ball pitches and whether it strikes the pad outside the line or not; if it's going to hit the stumps, it's out.
I really don't think he's thought that through.
