Why it was not an Umpiring Mistake?

Umpiring standards have remained the most talked about subject during this World Cup T-20 Internationals. There was a 5-ball bowled over during Australia vs Afghanistan match.

Most recently, during Pak vs Ban encounter, yet again, there emerged an Umpiring Controversy over Shakib ul Hasan’s dismissal. Pakistan made it into the semi-finals following that.

Just previously, Bangladesh had also faced a similar controversy when Nurul Hasan claimed that the on-field umpires had missed an incident of “fake fielding” from Virat Kohli, which could have resulted in five potentially crucial penalty runs for Bangladesh.

Cricket definitely relies on the on-field umpire’s judgment; rather than qudrat ka nizam. For the off-field umpires, it is technology: DRS, line tracking, hawk-eye, stump mic, speed gun, spyder cam, Duckworth-Lewis method, and whatnot. The use of the Kalman Filter can even predict spin deflection on the ball. Umpires should often use it against their natural cognition. But first, they should know how to use technology first.
