Nehra got Astle plumb in front but Harper made an unfair no-ball call.  Next
ball Nehra had Astle caught by Harbhajan and Harper could only stand and
watch.

the technical description is in fact "blumb".

Saw an interesting piece of cricket early this morning. Harper turned down
an apparently plumb LBW, to Zahir I think. The commentators indicated a
bat-pad. Replays showed it was in fact front pad - back pad making the two
sounds. They pontificated for a while "That must be it" and how Harper was
fooled into thinking it was bat.

Only problem was it ballooned high in the air and the keeper caught it!
