Ind vs Eng: India ha sido herida por algunas pobres decisiones en el campo del árbitro australiano Paul Reiffel.
In the ongoing IND vs ENG Lord’s Test, one would get a feeling, that some of the close LBW shouts from India have been turned down by the umpires, while the some of the not-so-close calls from England have been adjudged out. Yes, there is DRS, but in such cases, umpire’s call is hardly reversed.
Indian Team Gets Poor Decisions in Lord’s
Former India off-spinner R Ashwin was particular miffed with the way Paul Reiffel did not adjudge Joe Root out, when the replays showed, that the ball would crash into the leg stump. Reiffel had also given Shubman Gill out caught behind, when the ball did not take the edge.
“My experience with Paul Reiffel… I want to talk to him. I am not saying that I should tell him that give it out. It’s not like that. Whenever India bowls, he always feels it’s not out. Whenever India bats, he always feels it’s out. If it’s not against India but against all teams, then ICC has to see towards it,” Ashwin said on his YouTube channel, Ash ki Baat.
Umpire Paul Reiffel the Culprit
Ashwin also spoke at length about the Gill decision. “I own a car, a sedan, which I can park through the gap between the bat and ball. It’s clear it was not out. But this is not the first time. My father was watching the match with me. And he told me, ‘whenever Paul Reiffel comes, India will not win.’ Even Mike Atherton and Nasser Hussain said the umpires could have acted a bit firm with players taking time,” Ashwin added.
Actually, Anil Kumble too wasn’t too impressed with the Aussie’s standard of umpiring. “It seems Paul Reiffel has decided that it is not going to be out. Anything close, not out,” Kumble said while commentating.
