Blundell reviews immediately after being given out caught-behind! Big gap between bat and ball.

Daylight between them! The pink ball is easier to see too

Aleem Dar has an umpire room named after him at GSL!

Aleem Dar is the greatest umpire of all time for me.

His longevity and good work ethics are inspiring.

Umpring, particularly test umpring is a very demanding job, not just mentally but physically also. Aleem Dar, as is the culture in Pakistan , not a very physically fit person at this age hence keep making blunders in umpring . He was the best umprire in he world when was younger but now perpaps the worst of the elite umpires, should retire now .

But no one retires gracefuuly in Pakistan.

ICC will be monitoring the ratings he gets from captains and it won't be surprising if he's given lower profile series in future and then asked to retire gracefully.

He'll have the PSL etc to work on no doubt in future.

For me this one very marginal, could have gone either way. A spike on snicko when the ball hit the wristband before the armguard I believe was correctly given out. But it is becoming a theme that these controversial decisions (as well as some howlers) are following him around of late. I don’t think it will be a huge surprise if he is wound down forwards retirement soon.

Rizwan caught behind was not a great decision - he had to be completely sure. Thankfully reversed due to DRS
