All the way from Srinagar

Hameed from Srinagar just called up the folks on DDs Fourth Umpire and told them to rename the programme. His suggestion: Indian Umpire. As far as he’s concerned, Srikanth, Charu Sharma and Roshni are totally biased towards India. “Jimmyji” however is “great!”

Considering some of the gushing that goes on after every game that India wins, and the mourning after every match that India loses, Hameed just may have a point.

Though Indian Umpire does suggest partiality on the basis of umpires, it should just be called Indian Fan.
