ICC rules are like cricket played in the street. Make rules whenever you want, no matter what you want.

Sachin Tendulkar today put out a video on Twitter in which during a cricket match, the ball hit one of bails but it did not get completely dislodged from the stumps.
While all the players stared at the bail eagerly, the umpie came and put it back in the right position.
Tendulkar asked: 'A friend shared this video with me. Found it very unusual! What would your decision be if you were the umpire?'

Not Out Sir, though harsh on bowler. But rules say so, The disturbance of a bail, whether temporary or not, shall not constitute its complete removal from the top of the stumps, but if a bail in falling lodges between two of the stumps this shall be regarded as complete removal

As far as Sahin's posted video is concerned, the umpire thought the batsman was not out.
Others reacted with memes.
