In the Guardian, Mike Selvey says the ongoing ODI series between India and England has been a fractious one. England's frustration, he says, appears to be aimed more at themselves than their opponents.
Worryingly, however – on England's part anyway – it appears to be a reflection on the sort of behaviour that is now standard in the domestic game on which the England team, most of them, cut their cricket teeth and which one very senior umpire described last summer as a disgrace. County captains and coaches have something to answer in that regard, while match referees need determination and strong backing if they are to police it properly.
