Question

why was the umpire misled​

Answer 1

Ridley Jacobs, the West Indian wicketkeeper, has been given a three one day match suspension, later amended to a one test match suspension, as punishment for cheating and sharp practice. Either is, for cricket, drastic punishment. Suspensions are normally given to batsmen who show visible dissent on being given out. For example, Inzamam-ul-Haq was punished for lingering at the crease after Peter Willey had given him out leg before wicket - and he only got a two match suspension. Jacobs's fault was that he claimed a stumping after breaking the stumps with the glove that wasn't holding the ball. The laws of cricket stipulate that the stumps must be broken with the hand (or hands) holding the ball.
