Honestly, i think the bounce is a very outdated tradition.
We are losing good umpires, and preventing new ones from joining the elite, because they need to perfect the bounce.
Forget that. Throw the ball up and get the best umpires we can get based on decision making ability and knowledge of the game......not a party trick.
