Non of these people were in charge and who knows what they would really have done under the circumstances. Its easy with hindsight.

Th rules are about the game, not the people who want to watch it.

Irrespective of who is to blame for the ball incident, I blame Pakistan, for not doing what the umpire asked of them in terms of getting the match started again.


Instead of blamimg the umpire, ask yourself, why didn't the Pakistanis get onto the field and start the match as they should have done - they are not in charge.
