Each batsman should have 1 review for caught out descisions


Recommended Posts

Limiting number of reviews in understandable and players just take their chances while reviewing LBW decisions. So 2 reviews a side in 80 overs is good for LBWs.

 

However for caught out decision each batsman should have their 1 review. This is something where they won't try their luck, rather they would review only when they are sure they haven't nicked it.

 

Peter Nevill was dismissed today even when he didn't edge it. This situation can be avoided.

2 reviews is surely less for me. Or they should add something like 2 reviews per session in test matches or reviews carrying over from your first innings to 2nd innings if you haven't used all of them. 

 

In tennis, each set you get new set of reviews. 

2 reviews for lBWs in 80 overs is enough. But it shouldn't be mixed with other mode of dismissals.

That's because, Shaun Marsh used the review, even when he knew he was out plumb ....

It was more like, he hoped something would go wrong rather than he challenged the decision....Incase, if he was sane, Australia would have used that review for peter Nevill

that is why it is better to allow 1 unsuccessful review to each batsman instead of 2 unsuccessful reviews to the team.

Limiting the reviews is because you don't want to slow down an already slow game. Giving each batsman one review is going to add an extra 5 minutes per wicket as most batsmen will review irrespective of whether they are out or not. Instead I feel the number of reviews per team can be increased to 4 with one review added for every 80 overs bowled.

That's why I am not advocating increasing reviews for LBWs. Keep it to 2 only to discourage optimistic reviews.

 

However caught out should always have review option. If batsman nicked it then he would know and rarely use it to get lucky. Only in rare occasions, batsmen are unsure.

In that case every 2nd dismissal would be reviewed.

Giving reviews for each caught out dismissal won't slow down the game as batsman will use it only when he hasn't nicked it.

I like the idea, but make it 1 review per batsman per match. Or have a run penalty for obvious out decisions reviewed (like caught behind). Then the batsmen will not take the review in hope that hotspot might not catch it.

Also, the rules can be set that the batsmen have to start walking and wait at boundary edge when a decision is being reviewed. this will avoid time wastage, plus technology will become faster as time progresses.

best is to remove 2 reviews and give 1 review to each batsman. So, in this case a batsman will only review when he is sure that he is not out. He can have as many reviews as he wants until he is out. So, you wont have any problem of team losing reviews.

although you would have to be prepared to bowl out Eng twice in an innings then.

Why only give reviews to the batsmen ?

 

Should each bowler get two reviews to even it out ?

 

Nonsense.

 

Leave it at two reviews and let them be used to overturn howlers.

Bowler need only rise his hand the ump will be prepared to review ( bowler has unlimited reviews max possible already), the one wrong review per bat is still infinite vs 1 in favor of the bowler so dont worry.

 

its not nonsense, you are not reading it or thinking it through. 2 review is an arbitrary number one wrong review per batsman is not arbitrary.

Why do you call it 1 review per batsman? What you are proposing is unlimited reviews for the batting side.
