I don’t care if a bloke cheated or you felt robbed or the umpire was poor or whatever, there is no excuse.
Yeah agree.
I think the PDCA have been pretty good at handling poor behaviour in recent years and I'm sure the book will get thrown at the culprits if proven guilty.
We all know self umpired games aren't ideal but we know its not easy to get enough umpires to cover all grades. You just have to accept unless it miles out or absolutely plumb its not going to be given.
If I had a dollar for every time as a left handed batsmen I was given out LBW from a ball pitching outside leg stump I would be a very rich man. I even had an ex team mate who now umpires PDCA giving me out and saying he doesn't 'believe' in that rule
