Major international papers and even the BBC is reporting that England was awarded an illegal extra run that helped them to draw the match,which later paved the way to victory. The umpire who awarded the illegal run is a Sri Lankan. Daily Mirror should have the guts to publish this emerging story.

In every match there are at least 3-5 umpiring errors. Why pinpoint only this?
