If they changed the rule I am sure India will accept it. Dhoni's comments were a good insight as to why the players don't want it.

If the ump says not out and the ball is just clipping then its still not out, if the ump says out and ball is just clipping then its still out. His point was if your trust technology and it says ball is making contact with the stumps however little then it should be out, similarly if ball clipping the stumps on ump's not out call is not out then it should also be not out when the ump says out but the ball is just clipping.

On another note, I always believe people should not complain about pitches or conditions as both teams play on the same field and therefore believe DRS is equally/unequally fair to both teams and India shouldn't moan about it.

As for Kohli, yup he has a big mouth and can be annoying but he backs it up with the bat and in the field, he has also been getting better at controlling himself. I bet if he was playing for England he would be loved, Aussies love him and hate him. He could walk into any team in the world right now.

To be honest, Smith sounded way too arrogant during his chit chat with the commentators. He was talking as if the batting is a mere formality and the match was already won by Australia. Ultimately overconfidence did him in. He must learn to respect the opposition, it doesn't matter what he thinks of the opposition's bowling.
Chit chatting on the mic specially when the bowler is in his run up certainly shows his lack of respect for the opposition and looking by the reaction, he must have been quite loud to be heard by everyone within 30 yards.

Why is it a no no? We know t20's aren't serious and are supposed to be then 'entertainment' format so why not have players mic'd up? I actually thought it was decent Warner and smith did it, kudos to them. Kohli is a over rated turd so tbh, he gobs off anytime, just ignore him. Petulant child

Any international game is serious in my opinion. Entertainment it is for the public- not for the players. Their careers are dependent on it. How can a batsman concentrate when he is on the mic ? No wonder there was a huge outrage. Don't think we will again see a batsman mic up anytime soon.

And Kohli is overrated ?? OK then . I believe you need some passion while playing. Some players raise their game when they pick up a banter. And the greatest in that was Steve Waugh. My ATF player !

I think where Kohli is going wrong is he is using too many actions and has overly aggressive body language. He needs to be a bit more subtle. Best sledging is the one that you find out after the game and not live on TV

I saw the highlights (not the full game) but was shocked to hear Smith mic'd for an ODI! People need to take their Cricket seriously.

http://www.cricketcountry.com/news/india-vs-australia-2013-ian-chappell-rejects-commentary-offer-due-to-strict-bcci-guidelines-31834

From the article:
According to the Hindustan Times, the BCCI doesn�t like criticism in any manner, and prevents the contracted commentators to speak on various topics including Indian team selection matters, the board�s stand on the Decision Review System (DRS) policy and the board�s administrative matters.

Chappell, known for his straight talks and unmatched insights in the game, revealed in an e-mail conversation that he refused to follow the BCCI policy.

Chappell wrote, �I was invited by ESPN to do commentary. I emailed back asking who I was working for and the reply was; I was contracted by ESPN but I would be subject to BCCI restrictions.�

�I emailed back to ask what these restrictions were and was told; �I couldn�t talk about Indian selection, DRS or administrative matters. I responded saying I didn�t feel I could do my job properly under those circumstances and therefore declined the offer,� he added.

�I�m not sure what happened with other commentators. It wasn�t a matter of being asked to sign anything � it never reached that stage,� he concluded.

Talking about his replacement in the commentary panel, Matthew Hayden, Chappell said he is not aware of that.

The BCCI prevents the contracted commentators to speak on the matters which may bring some amount of embarrassment to itself. When the spot-fixing and betting scandal in the sixth edition of Indian Premier League (IPL) came into light, the commentators did not utter a single word on the issue.

Why would any self respecting commentator get involved with such rules. Didn't Michael Holding get into trouble after his DRS comments?

Hastings taking a beating from Dhawan

Lyon just isn't the answer!
Aussies have a big problem given starc is not going to be fit for the WC. Watson looks like the most threatening bowler out of the lot and a few on here questioned why he's back in the team.

Not just Starc, missing the speedy Cummins as well. Attack is pretty pedestrian with those two.

I'd rather Boyce play instead of Lyon

Kohli is a bit mental but my goodness he's incredible with the willow. Batting master classes in this short tour.

Some of these shots from Kohli! No slogging at all.
