Hi Ravi,
As I said, there will always be 2 views. I am trying to play the devil's 
advocate. But as an opposite view to yours ... how can one continue to respect 
an umpire like Steve Bucknor after his actions in the Australian Series. The 
game is bigger, more money and media attention involved, umpire mistakes are 
more obvious due to replays and better cam views. So maybe its not a bad thing 
... let's see how it goes.
