RIP Dickie. Cricket Umpires never cease to amaze me. The number of things they need to keep track of is incredible but their ability to assess the flight of a ball for LBW decisions is almost supernatural. I'd love to know what sort of accuracy percentage they have on their decisions.0

RIP one of a kind. A real 'aww' out loud moment when I saw the news0
