I guess given the fact that the umpires have only a split second to make a decision one way or another, and for the fact that they don't have the benefit of TV replays, it would certainly rule out the less obvious mistakes which have and always will be made. But hey that's what cricket is all about isn't it? Originally Posted by Agoge1

Gees who needs umpires out there at all if this happened, they could umpire completely from their armchairs up in the umpires box.
In short NO I hope this does not happen, you have to stay with some human made decisions.

john,
congrats on australia retaining the title. as someone born in the uk to indian parents, i think the endless defeats at australia's hands (eng and india) are getting somewhat wearisome. anyway, such is life - if the rest of world is not up to the task, it's hardly the aussies' fault!
as for your description of how the game works, i think this emoticon covered it...
