83.1 Mohammad Khalil to Dravid, no run, the ball pitches outside leg,
hit Dravid plumb in front of the stump, huge appeal by Khalil, but
once the ball is outside leg, no chance of the batsman bneing
given out, Khalil almost ended up pleading for a wicket
Re: 2nd Test - Pakistan vs India - Kolkata (Merged)
some1, that was a clear plumb. Even the commentators agreed the decision can also be considered as “another human error”. Somehow the cricket info didn’t see that way..
like I said it wasn’t a game changing decision …bucknor is trying to win the hearts of the kolkattans(sp?)

^^ cricinfo is not bias they are just hyperactive when it comes to india, their emotions takes over when India is playing.
and when it comes to any other team they are like rat on a weed
Re: 2nd Test - Pakistan vs India - Kolkata (Merged)
You know your bowling attack is toothless when batsman like Karthik are unbeaten on 70-odd. I think Kaneria didnt bowl well today and that cost pakistan.
Re: 2nd Test - Pakistan vs India - Kolkata (Merged)
but that’s only natural…
if you look at our discussions on this forum, you’d think we’re quite hyperactive too - sometimes even a little too unbecoming for my liking.
Re: 2nd Test - Pakistan vs India - Kolkata (Merged)
That reminds me. When Tendulkar was given out yesterday…Ehsan in one of his comments implied that the commentators thought it was a wrong decision because they(the commentators) were Indians. So I guess its a thankless job for Indians…in the commentry box or at cricinfo.
Re: 2nd Test - Pakistan vs India - Kolkata (Merged)
Aamir Sohail is soo annoying..He seems to have every solution..I don't really blame inzi here..He tried every combination of bowlers , different field settings..We can sit here and easily criticize the captaincy all we want but the fact is our bowling attack is third class.
