That was a perfectly workable law when batsmen were in the most danger in such circumstances, but with helmets and chest guards I think those most in danger when light deteriorates are the fielders and umpires. Unless the umpires felt it was too dangerous I think they should have had the balls to let the match play out. Imagine the umpires theatrically tossing the light meters back to the match referee, to the cheers of tens of thousands of fans. In these sorts of situations, finish the game and let the playing conditions be damned.Mark M Heenanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18099466567373992700noreply@blogger.com
