Given that the Aussies have made 3 such claims recently (in the last
15 days), may be these doods also need be told that specifically. But
if Rashid was taught this lesson in a hard way, why should an
exception be made for Ponting or Clarke?

Because they didn't drop it like Latif, why can you not grasp this
essential difference?

What do you think would have happened had Clarke been closer to the
boundary and touched that ball on the rope? Would that be out or a
4/6? According to you, since the catch had been completed before that
point of time, it should be out. But I am quite positive that no
umpire could/would have given that out.

If he rolled onto the rope it would have been 6 I assume, but he didn't
he rolled then when he went to get up he used the ball for leverage, at
that point he had control of his movements.
