       Agreed, but does that mean that there is no chance of seeing Ian
       in a Semi or even the Final? Accepting the need for neutrality,
       I would still hope that umpires from the nations competing in
       the semi-finals will not be precluded from umpiring at this
       stage of the competition. Let's hope the rain we've been having
       in the NW this morning doesn't spoil Ian's big day at Leeds.

       It’s been reported in the media as his final game (including bbc
       live text). Maybe Ian asked not to be considered for a knockout
       game, meaning he knew well in advance where his career would
       finish to get family/friends there to support him??

       No real surprises for the England v Australia semi final. I have
       to say I'm shocked that Richard Illingworth has been appointed
       to the other semi final, don't thinks he's ever really been near
       a world tournament semi-final before if I remember correctly and
       I've never considered him in the top bracket of ICC umpires. I
       personally thought that Rod Tucker was nailed on for an
       old-field spot in that semi-final.

       Here are the stats on reviews for the group stage for each

       Upheld: 3
       Reversed: 4
       Umpire's Call: 2
       Joel Wilson
       Decisions reviewed: 5
       Upheld: 2
       Reversed: 1
       Umpire's Call: 2
       Paul Wilson
       Decisions reviewed: 10
       Upheld: 3
       Reversed: 4
       Umpire's Call: 3
       These stats only reflect decisions that were reviewed - from
       what I saw, there were a number of calls that should have been
       reviewed but weren't - either because the team chose not to
       review, or couldn't (because they'd used their review already).

       Wonder how much these are on merit or just “political”?
       To me both Dharmasena and Kettleborough have been less than
       impressive at this World Cup and Gaffeney not much better.

       I suppose an England-Australia semi rules out most of the
       officials - they need to pick four from seven!

       That none sense over Roy’s “dismissal” is another indication of
       what a poor WC Dharmasena has had.
       I predict now that Erasmus and Tucker will get the final, with
       Reiffel as 3rd umpire

       Based on how the ICC have appointed in the past, I would bet on
       Erasmus and Dharmasena to stand in the final, despite the
       latter’s indifferent performance!

       I think that's a pretty good shout for the Final.  Actually,
       until today I thought that I had seen an improvement in
       Dharmasena in this world cup but the Roy decision was awful,
       particularly for someone who has now stood in over 100 one day
       internationals.  The pity is that he, as the villain of the
       piece will get away with it and Roy will get penalised for his
       dissent, despite the tremendous provocation. Yes, I know that
       players should accept the decisions of officials but sometimes
       when they are so bad, particularly in matches of this
       importance, that even Mother Teresa would have probably been
       minded to whisper an expletive.
