India won "thanks to umpires"

Re: India won "thanks to umpires"

If Ponting had been given LBW (he escaped twice - thanks to Bowden) when the Indian bowlers were all over the Aussies in the morning, the Australian innings might have folded for much less.

Just for the record.....there were 6 wrong LBW decisions in this match :

Tendulkar (Rauf - 1st innings)
Dhoni ( Rauf - 1st innings)
Pathan (Bowden - 1st innings)
Rogers (Rauf - 1st innings)
Hussey (Rauf - 2nd innings)
Symonds (Bowden - 2nd innings)

Plus there were several LBWs not given :

Ponting (twice - 2nd innings - both by Bowden)
Dravid ( 1st innings - Rauf)
...and a few more I am told that I did not see

Given that there were so many iffy decisions made against either side, its difficult to say which team really benefited from Umpiring mistakes.
