Pick your end wisely.

by Gaurav Sethi

Pakistani umpires are likable. They give guys out.

Better still, today, they (Asad Rauf is royalty) gave some Aussies out.

Still, Kumble bowled himself and Ishant from Rudi’s end. Which is a lot less likable than Howard’s end.

When India bat, will howling wolf Lee bowl from Rauf’s end?

Whoever does, you can bet your bottom Aussie dollar, he’ll get more from Rauf, than Rudi gives.

Or will Rudi finally come around by then?

On a dour note, it’s a shame about the referrals. We could’ve collectively blamed Saheba sahib, the TV umpire.

But then, we still got Lee’s beamers to look up to.

But before that some quick runs, wickets or both. The IPL leg of the test match starts tomorrow.

Bring on dear Watson. Elementary!

Its disappointing that referals are not used in this series. Things could have been different.

Gaurav Sethi said...

yeah, for starters Hayden would be still there.

And Kumble might have had a wicket, Ponting would have got out earlier....

BTW .. just have a look at this.

Yes... But bhajji got one from Rudi as well...

Gaurav Sethi said...

sure. rudi has potential. rauf is the finished product, an "out" umpire, like a lotta indians.

caught a replay of that, missed the umpire.

I don't know... on a general note, I thought Rudi did quite ok :).

Gaurav Sethi said...

Scorpi - would Rudi have given Hayden?

Rauf would've given punter off bhajji.
