SCG Drama

First time a drama has taken place in SCG and it would never be remembered for the aussies victory.This is the second time in the world of cricket an umpire has been replaced by ICC after a complaint from the visiting team.It has been really a testing time for Team India and the management,but Kumble has remained coolhead thro out the drama which needs to be appreciated.It would have been a different scenario when Dada captaining the side.The umpiring errors had spoiled the final day and lot of decisions favouring against the Indians.The Wall fighting hard was at the receiving end of a caught behind decision of Bucknor and the next one was Ganguly caught at slip by Clarke.The decision should have been definitely referred to 3rd umpire by Benson without any second thought but instead it was referred to Ponting which have given to a lot of controversy.

The Indians would ague that Symonds catch would have sealed them a win but at the same time there are decisions that went in favour of India.when Sachin on 36 was ruled not out by Benson,the replays suggested that it was a clean leg before to Clarke.The same happened to Laxman on 16 was trapped in front to Lee,so both the team have to focus on the rest of the tour.One thing is for sure if aussies continue to play the game like they played in SCG they will confront a lot of problems in the future
