  1. Never walk because an opposition player thinks its out 🙂 – only if you are sure its out or the umpire has given it as out – he did the right thing.

  2. it doesn't matter who says what. if umpires say out then out, if not out then not out. This trend of walking before umpire's decision was a disgrace to game.

  3. Clean catch first and foremost. Not sure why people aren't leading with that..

    Yes, modern competitive times, rare instances of questionable conduct, and advances in technology…. Have all lead to a time where standing ones ground is perfectly reasonable.

    That being said, there is something romantic, something uniquely cricket, about taking a man at his word at letting that be enough.

    Such is life.

    Regardless… Clean catch.
