Why can't batsmen review LBWs with current review system?

UDRS or not,Erasmas has been pathetic in this match,I dont recall a single correct decision from him in this match.Such incompetency in umpiring is not expected out of an Elite Panel umpire.

One more LBW tragedy for Indian batsmen. Gavaskar complaining about the decision. :hmmm: Yesterday Ravi and Gavaskar was crying about technology and saying this is why BCCI doesn't want DRS when clearly it was not the fault of technology. Rather it was a human error. This time they are not bringing BCCI in the discussion. Why not a similar reaction and long commentary with strong word about that in this case?

However the DRS used in the England-India series will be without the Hawk-Eye ball-tracker which means line decisions for lbw appeals cannot be referred. For example' date= if the ball pitches outside leg stump and the batsman is given out lbw, the lack of ball-tracking technology means he cannot question the decision. On the other hand, if a batsman is given out lbw and he thinks there is an inside-edge involved, he can get the decision reviewed since Hot Spot can resolve whether there is an edge. Why the hell didn't Bhaji review that LBW?
that is totally incorrect the reason they cant review lbws is surprisingly logical imagine is a batsman is given lbw but he thinks he has hit it. he would first of all have to ask what the umpire has given him out for, the lbw or a potential catch. icc dont want the umpires questioned at any time, so that is why you cant refer any aspect of a leg before decision.

eh? Batsman can always ask the umpire about the mode of dismissal and it is officially conveyed by field umpires to ICC officials. How is it actually logical?

imagine the following scenario: batsman nicks a ball onto pad, close in fielder catches. (both lbw and caught could be the dismissal) he asks the umpire what the mode of dismissal was umpire says lbw THEN he asks for a referral. the referral is not meant to be contingent upon the batsman knowing what the mode of dismissal is. the referral is entirely at the discretion of the player but the icc dont want umpires to be questioned in this manner, so they totally eradicted lbws from the UDRS in this series, because india dont want UDRS for the hawkeye style lbws (seeing if it would have hit the stumps, not whether they have hit it or not) how do i know this? because i met dave richardson at lords on day 1 when it was raining, and asked him this exact question.

I think ICC wanted to punish BCCI by asking umpires to give horrible decisions so that DRS will be implemented by BCCI. Its a conspiracy.
You really do type some cr*p Unfecking believable

Our chaps don't even know the rules. :laugh: Raina asking for a review when he was given out LBW and then Dravid in this test.
what about dravid? he didnt review an lbw

First bat-pad decision off Swann. He didn't know if he could review it.
yeah he did, it was quite clearly for a catch and not for a leg before
