Fozzy,
 
I'd say that you handled it as well as possible. The young lad obviously made things more awkward for you by beginning to go, but the umpire is there for a reason and you stuck to you guns. Well done and have a gold star!!
 
Shame the opposition skipper didn't speak up sooner if he thought it wasn't out!!
It won't spin if you don't pitch it!!!

  I was having a pint with an old SA test umpire , Syd MIllar , on Friday Foz and I put your poser to him.   He says the batsman could be at the boundary rope and the umpire can still deem him not out.  If the umpires are in consultation and don't see the batsman leave the crease and they inform the fielding captain that it was a bump ball , the guy would just have to walk all the way back to the centre again!

   Old Syd stood in plenty of 1st class matches both in SA and England and knows his stuff mate!
Mental disintegration works for me !!

'Stump The Guru' now has a new home. Sadly, it has fallen into disuse and so is to be archived.
