Sheesh AR that would have been back in the day of home town umpires and match referees!
The Paki & Indian umpires were rather biased as well I hear!

It is heartening to see the Indian quicks rolling over the SA batsmen for sub 300 scores....one would think Aust quicks are a tad better and faster than the Indian quicks over all. Seems like it will be a case of whichever teams batsmen can handle the conditions better and score the most runs when the SA v Aust tests start.....
