It wasn't all that clear to me; all that I could make out from the TV replays was that the ball was desperately close to the gloves.

Agreed that the benefit of doubt should go to the batsman in these situations, but I would give some leeway to Kettleborough here. Actually think he's better than quite a few umpires on the ICC panel.

The bat does not look to be anywhere close to the line of the ball, took the flap of the front pad on its way in to his body and lobbed to the fielder, another West Indies batsman done in by the umpire /Cricinfo.

TBF to the umpire it wasn't the easiest of decisions, though.

He's given a few bad decisions hasn't he?

Catching my first view of this game. Greeted by Fidel Edwards playing an ugly swipe with the match in the balance. Poor cricket from an experienced cricketer.

the ball was perilously close to the gloves.

nobody argued here it was a clear cut one, but isn't there enouggh proof to say it wasn't wither.

also given the pathetic frame rates, it's impossible to draw conlcusion from tv replays. ftr with first available replays, it looked pretty obvious dhoni has flicked the bails off, till the straight on replys suggested his gloves were beside the stumps and the ball burst throuhgh them to take the bails.

Run off the last ball again. Superb stuff from Chanderpaul.

Fervently hope he get's to a century; really deserves one. Really.
