1) Umpiring was horrible. Both umpires should be sacked. Most of the time they had the "I don't know" look on their face. And I'm sorry...you don't ask players if the "ball was caught" if you are unsure. You are an umpire. That's your job. If you are unsure, ask the square leg umpire. Still unsure, 3rd umpire. Don't know the process.....you shouldn't be an umpire.

2) Ponting should not be sacked as captain. That is just a ridiculous comment, and I'm not even a fan of him. Nuff said.

3) I think India definitely have a right to be upset and take action, however abandoning the series is taking it too far. Appeal the decision against Harbhajan, and Harbhajan can play till the outcome of the appeal is known.

I say throw both teams into a gladiator ring, let them beat the **** out of each other. Then get to a bar, have a drink, and just get on with the bl**dy game!!
