That blatant caught behind error plus the close stumping NOT-OUT
decision

(which in all fairness should have gone India's way) has cruelly gone
against India... I think the third umpire should have erred on India's
side after that blatant errror of the caught behind.

Now Symonds is piling on the runs which is potentially taking T2 away
from India's grasp...

Of course, the caught behind error was upsetting... but umpires are
human...
but the stumping decision could have gone in India's favour...

As it is, it is difficult to play the Aussies down under... and to top
it with crucial umpiring errors is just back breaking...

Less said the better... let's us get the 3rd umpire at least for
crucial decisions.

Yep it's a disappointing one, especially seeing as its the 3rd umpire who's
had time to check the video footage before making the decision. I don't
think you'll find too many Aussies who thought it was Not Out, I thought it
was conclusive enough to be given Out.
