swatpulla Posted August 15, 2015 Posted August 15, 2015 What about our aukaat? It has been blasted enough. From Indian fans to foreign fans to former Cricketers, everyone is highly critical of BCCI on this. What about umpires though? They are pathetic, costing one side match after match and no one wants to talk about this. The level of umpiring in our last few away tours has been so poor that this stuff needs be investigated. I may sound like Pakistanis here, but when a trend like this goes on for too long, one gotta question it. Umpires are no angels, they deserve as much criticism and questioning as the BCCI or players.
swatpulla Posted August 15, 2015 Posted August 15, 2015 If not corruption, could it be the case where umpires are super generous on home teams? If not money, is there a subconcious bias that makes them repay the hosts with such decisions? Like all professions, umpiring needs to address all such issues. From what we can see, this bias seems to be a part of our sport. It's not just players who need psychiatrists, there is clearly a trend where umpires are allowing a few non-sporting factors influence their decisions.
Soorma_Bhopali Posted August 15, 2015 Posted August 15, 2015 What about our aukaat? hardly saw in post-interview any hurt in these players, especially Kohli's face on losing a test match which we should have won In by an innings .Seems like they care more about their IPL franchises more where they figh in between themselves )( Kohli-Gambhir episode). Expect India to be at no.9-10 in test rankings in an year
Marut Posted August 15, 2015 Posted August 15, 2015 DRS has nothing to do with this loss. If you can't make 175, DRS will make no difference. "We lost due to DRS" would be a good way of stroking our egos, but we lost because our players are chicken hearted.
Gollum Posted August 15, 2015 Posted August 15, 2015 DRS has nothing to do with this loss. If you can't make 175' date=' DRS will make no difference. "We lost due to DRS" would be a good way of stroking our egos, but we lost because our players are chicken hearted.[/quote'] I agree that our batting today was an embarrassment but if DRS were in place we would have won by an innings and 50 runs at least.

"We lost due to DRS" would be a good way of stroking our egos, but we lost because our players are chicken hearted.[/quote'] DRS has everything to do with this loss. Scoring even that much against a quality spinner like Herath was always going to be hard. Match changed when Sri Lanka should have been 100/7, but instead they reached 250/5.
zep1706 Posted August 16, 2015 Posted August 16, 2015 DRS has nothing to do with this loss. This has to be a joke right? With DRS India probably would have won it by an innings. Yes they batted terribly but India have been on the wrong side of umpiring decisions consistently in overseas tests. In Australia 12-13 decisions went against India. That is like a whole innings of wrong decisions. It is a significant disadvantage. It is not a coincidence that most close decisions almost always go against India. Personally I have never been a big supporter of the DRS in its present form. IMO just TV replays are good enough to remove howlers. But DRS is definitely much better than not having any review system.
great siri Posted August 16, 2015 Posted August 16, 2015 7.1 Gamage to Dhawan, no run, massive reprieve for Dhawan. It's on the perfect length, slanting away from off stump. Dhawan pokes at it with no footwork and the ball slides past his outside edge into Sanga's gloves. He appeals frantically, and it's not given, and you can see why Sanga thought that was out. Pretty solid edge on that.
great siri Posted August 16, 2015 Posted August 16, 2015 24.2 Herath to Raina, no run, a huge roar for caught behind from the Sri Lankans but umpire Dharmasena shakes his head. Dharmasena then has a word with Chandimal, who was charging the umpire. Raina had pushed forward to defend and the ball slid across the left-hander. Looked like a faint edge
great siri Posted August 16, 2015 Posted August 16, 2015 and even this game started like this 7.1 Aaron to Silva, OUT, India get rid of the openers with the short ball, Silva tries to hook a bouncer from outside the line of his left shoulder, and ends up edging it over the cordon, Dhawan makes up for the drop, runs to his right and dives to take it, replays show that took the arm guard, not sure if there was bat involved

BeautifulGame Posted August 16, 2015 Posted August 16, 2015 Did Kohli say anything about DRS in post match interviews ?
sscomp32 Posted August 16, 2015 Posted August 16, 2015 Did Kohli say anything about DRS in post match interviews ? Chetan Narula @chetannarula Aug 15 Sri Lanka Virat didn't want to discuss umpire decisions in PC. Did say they might have to discuss DRS after this series. #IndvSL
zep1706 Posted August 16, 2015 Posted August 16, 2015 If you can't chase a small 4th innings score' date=' you shouldn't be blaming the DRS.[/quote'] Agreed but regardless of what India did, lack of DRS has been a major obstacle for India. Not sure how you could deny that.
PSB_Zone Posted September 1, 2015 Posted September 1, 2015 No matter what the DRS is but its absolutely certain that it takes shockers away from the game.Why this rigidity bu BCCI ?
Soorma_Bhopali Posted September 1, 2015 Posted September 1, 2015 No matter what the DRS is but its absolutely certain that it takes shockers away from the game.Why this rigidity bu BCCI ? Agree totally ..
Vijy Posted September 1, 2015 Posted September 1, 2015 What more can you expect from the BCCI Clowns?
Pagalpanti Posted September 1, 2015 Posted September 1, 2015 Didn't BCCI recently say that they're open to DRS without hawkeye? At least howlers can be avoided.
