  • After a 40-minute hearing, Yuvraj walked out with a smile. The normally strict referee Broad had given India a rare leeway, letting him off with a warning. But only because the evidence wasn't conclusive, as Broad said in his verdict, on whether Yuvraj had shown his displeasure or outright dissent. That it was the umpire's mistake which had sparked off a reaction did matter at all.

    Officials are above lawBy: Venkatanarayanan | 02-Feb-2009 Reply | Forward More importantly, all officals (especially the match referree) are totally above law in the game of cricket. It is a matter of serious concern that the match referees have been extra caustic and stringent with the Asian teams as compared with the other teams. Unless there is a review mechanism that includes stalwarts from all countries, there is very little credence ICC can ever expect. But then, where is it written in the law books that ICC officials need to be unbiased?
