Penalize the Umpire?

Let us not be absurd and ask

 

…. should the umpires be penalised for every error they commit for you never know how decisive it could prove?

 

Since most umpires are well-versed with the cricketing laws, the solution is to have more number of physically fit umpires.

 

Additionally, we should lessen the technological intervention. It has given rise to more controversies; expansive dramas, hysterical dissent and have successfully reduced umpires to mere ciphers.

 

Let us stop second guessing the umpire and go back to the days when we unquestioningly accepted his decision.
