C'mon these guys are better than this. Tino, Williams and Waller all throwing it away.

Why I am even bothering to watch this? Another lbw shout and the umpire's finger goes up instantly...

I could almost notice an instant glee both the times on his face when Gould raised his finger for the lbw. Almost like some sadistic pleasure. We are screwed with this approach by the umpires. Horrific shot selections by Tino, Sean and Maru for sure.

Shocking session. No idea what they were doing except charging the enemy guns

I remember in 2003 in the drawn Test against West Indies Blig was sending them down at between 146-152 clicks and he was a mencace all series.. Price was taking wickets for fun and Streak was doing his thing.. Someone needs to tell young Mumba to bowl fast and not try bowl line and length..
Blig was quick. I remember in a losing match of Zimbabwe against India maybe in VB Series 2003, he was bowling with a lot of anger knowing that the game is lost and clocking similar speed.

The umpiring thus far has been a disgrace. Do the ICC or the umpires bother to look at the decisions made after a game?
