Sack that clown

[fairdinkum]

Hello friends.

I was watching on SABC here in Joburg. They refused to show more than a couple of replays of the dodgy decisions (wonder why). Firstly Haddin 'out' and then some Pommy 'not out' although he seemed plumb LBW to me.

You know the umpire. I want him sacked.

That is all.

I would've guessed Rudi or Dar;

Umpires Aleem Dar (Pakistan) and BR Doctrove
TV umpire BF Bowden (New Zealand)

Plumb LBW refusals are usually Doctrove. He's blind to them.

It was Doctrove.

Surely in a 40-over match, the impact on the game of every umpiring error is amplified. Why on earth did the tournament not feature referrals?

Anyhow. Sack Doctrove.

While Haddin's decision was incorrect, the way it travelled through to the keeper and the position of his gloves/bat was out in the first instant. The LBW was a real stinker though.
