As a former cricketer I always walked if I was sure I was out, as long at the bowling side appealed. Or a big edge to the keeper. But never on an LBW because you just aren't sure if you're out or not. I prided myself on my sportsmanship. I always told my kids that you need to have integrity and honesty in sport as much as any other thing you do. I also taught the kids I coached over the years that cricket is a sport played by gentlemen, not spoiled brats. I think Broad should have walked, but he didn't break any rule by not. Just discredited himself in the cricket world.

Forgot to ad,the only reason we lost was our top order bats didn't score enough runs. I'm sure Boof would have told them that.
