So in the last India Pakistan series Inzimam stops with his bat a throw from the Indian bowler (was it Sreesanth?) going right towards his body, they appeal and he is given out obstructing the field....
Hayden today stops an exactly similar throw from the bowler Anderson and calmly deflects it to fine leg... no one even appeals....
Both throws were missing the stumps easily..
Whats the difference?? Does this say more about the Indian team ethics, the England sense of fair play or the rules being stupid?
I believe if England had appealed the umpire would have been obligated to give him out, no?
