The top scorer is the man injured in the warm up!

The umpires have been really bad this whole series, Aleem Dar is an exceptional umpire and so is Billy usually but in this series there've been some real shockers and they all seem to go one way. Australia can't get an lbw unless it's hitting the middle of middle (they've had at least 4 turned down when it was hitting the middle of middle), then they lose Ponting and Hussey to balls that were barely shaving leg stump (according to hawkeye).

I agree that they have been some poor decisions in the past, but criticising umpires just after making 2 correct decision is pretty bizarre. They both looked out when i first saw them and they were.

I'm not criticising either of those decisions, they highlight the inconsistency though. They were marginal and the correct decision was made. KP, Strauss, Cook and Bell have been plumb in front several times this series not given.

I think Swan has had 2 or 3 LBW's turned down that were out.

What goes round comes around, its ok picking out a mistake or two in a particular game, these things even themselves out in the long run. Always has done, always will do.

2 very clear lbws weren't given in the aussies' 1st innings last test. think it was watson and clarke who got away with it
in general the umpires haven't been giving the decisions either way, certainly not been one sided

siddle is comedy. in his 2 minute post match interview he said 'yeah' 29 times and that was only from when I started counting. even when the answer to a question was 'no' he said 'yeah, no'
