Re: India to file complaint against Aleem Dar's decisions
Can anybody who watched the match tell us about what happened? Were they bad decisions or is it a case of sour grapes for India? Steve Bucknor has made several bad decisions against Indians but as far as I know, they have never formally lodged a complaint against him.
Yes I watched it Live on TV!
They were not good decisions but was excelent bowling from Flintof. and in my opinon, Dravid's decision was "okay", i also felt as ball took an ege , may be very thin and even with their new "Black Spot" or dont know what they call it, it was "Very Close". but Unlucky Boy, Tendulkar, wasnt out at all :) , that i will say was a "very bad" decision by Dar. I also noticed that he was very polite with Tendulkar while he was running in danger area of pitch atleast twice and he just mentioned it to him and he didnt give any official warning to him, actually he gave respect to Tendulkar that he deserves, so it wasnt the case if he had something bad about India, he is a very good umpire!
Re: India to file complaint against Aleem Dar's decisions
Aleem gave decisions based off the sound. He is usually a great umpire, had a bad day. I have seen Taufel and Bowden make the same sort of mistakes before. Although, Aleem needs to take a break from cricket for a few weeks from time to time. He is involved in too many matches in a short period of time.

Chalo India lost so now blame it on Rio...I mean on Dar.
Comeon India crying like Tendu was the only one who was going to save them and win the final. What happen to the rest of 10 players? Wo ghar say amb (mango) lenay aye thay?
Re: India to file complaint against Aleem Dar's decisions
It's pathetic to do that. Not to forget the fact that Simon Taufel also gave some dubious decisions during the test series so it's just human error. There's nothing known as a "100%efficient machine" on this planet. Aleem Dar is one of the best umpires in the Cricket circuit and he's prone to errors just like we are.
he ruined a good final game, which could have been more interesting
