Dhoni is a dumb frickkin idiot to want 100% right! and really silly of Tendulkar to support MSD too Technology is not 100% right, but at least many of the HOWLERS!! can be eliminated if not all howlers!!

^ Dhoni is the CAPTAIN - his say is more important for such administrative decisions. Ofcourse Tendulkar as the most critical player also has a big say Poor Laxman (and ZK) got shafted! as a result of this stupid policy denying century for Laxy

^ I dont understand. Sehwag and Dravid are saying they want UDRS (well Sehwag is clearer on it). Why would Dhoni have to "repeat" what SRT says, he can give his own idea.

What is happening to Sehwag? Nothing. Sehwag is clearly for UDRS, and Dravid is 'somewhat' favoring UDRS too, and I forgot ZK's stance, but I thought ZK was favorable too Nothing will happen to the players just because they express their opinions on UDRS. MSD is against UDRS

Its ultimately a Sachin er... team decision. What is frustrating is that not once has he been forthright with his problems with the system. It seems he wants to talk through Dhoni & the other guys. Not the right way to go.

I think all you guys are completely wrong. DDRS was only used in this match because Dhoni refused to declare. The umpires were thinking about the wider ramifications of how a draw would mean anybody who is a not a patriot and his uncle will get on and shout from the rooftops that a dull bore draw against NZ in Ahmedabad meant India are killing test cricket, the BCCI is not interested in test cricket etc etc. Unfortunately for them Harbhajan refused to buckle down to the DDRS and went on to bat for as long as he could. Even when he was out he questioned DDRS, but they over ruled him.

We've been having a few howlers in past Test matches too. Just that nothing has really affected the Test match result and so it is going under the radar. When will SRT, Dhoni and BCCI wakeup and start pushing for the UDRS?

We need to compile a list of howlers that have gone against team India in recent times. Will work on the list tomorrow to see the total impact it could have made on the tests in last 12 months.

Now even Bhajji comes out in support of UDRS. Harbhajan was asked his opinion on the Umpire Decision Review System. "As a bowler, I don't mind if that system comes. We had it in Sri Lanka and I quite liked it as I got couple of wickets. But I am no one to decide on this. Big people decide; my job is to just bowl, bat, and field. That's the best I can do." I am sure none of our bowlers will say no to UDRS. Time for Zak to come out and support UDRS too.
