Nothing causes young and inexperienced umpires more anxiety
than having to rule on leg-before-wicket appeals. This is the one method of
dismissal that causes the most potential for conflict between teams in junior
cricket. You will have observed through television replays of how many times
international umpires get these decisions wrong.
For example, in giving some incorrect “out” decisions they
fail to notice that the ball would have bounced over the stumps, or that the
ball pitched just outside the line of the leg stump, or that the batter edged
the ball on to his pads, and so forth. Your job, however, is in many ways much
easier as your decisions will not be subjected to replay analysis.
