While I want us to win this tournament (of course), second choice is 'anyone but the sandpaper fiddlers'.

This can’t keep happening with the bails !!! Hard enough being a bowler nowadays .. needs changing
Yes. The bails have to actually fall to the floor. There have been times in the past where the bails have been dislodged and then settled back onto the stumps - that's not out. That's a freak occurrence, but this WC has been ridiculous with the bails not moving when the wicket has been hit. I agree with SteMerritt - if the 'zinger' bails are heavier or have to have deeper grooves in the top of the stumps then get rid of them. I think we can all live without bails that light up!After Warner being 'bowled' ...but the bails staying in place, & Umpires not intervening( can they intervene or do the bails have to physically 'jump' off? )... Aussies 18-0 after 6 overs

shallower grooves in the top of the stumps may rectify the situation? .... isnt right when its happened 5 times, so far, in this World cup series ... Id rather it was fair and above board, & when stumps are hit by the ball the bails fly off than having a bunch of flashing lights embedded, for no apparent reason, myselfI said this morning it’s got to be the lights on the stumps. Just a guess mind, but there heavier and not falling.
should still be banned, the pair of them, IMOThat’s Finch out 61/1 the two cheats in bat now.
