Will having no DRS eventually hurt us?


Recommended Posts

Posted

Seeing some decisions which would have been reversed under DRS in the current Ind v NZ series, most in favour of India, it's time BCCI start implementing DRS at least in its basic form, i.e. no hawk eye. Eventually this lack of embrace will come back to hurt us! I would like to see at least hot spot or snicko, if not available then even basic TV replays for edges would do. And how annoying are the TV replays showing ball path shown upto impact only and no hawkeye showing the full predicted trajectory of the ball?!!

We got the rough end of it despite having DRS in the England tour. We'll eventually have to embrace DRS but not in its current form. The very premise of DRS is to challenge the on-field umpire but then his decision is taken for close calls. Unless the application of DRS changes its better to not use it rather.

No. Umpires today fear giving decisions against us. If an umpire gives too many bad decisions against us we send them on a forced retirement. SA will soon start opposing DRS as well.

Yes, and we also collapsed from our best situation in the series after Broad got a hattrick even though he shouldn't have got that. NZ has already got 4-5 rough decisions in 3 innings. If it continues to happen then I guess we won't miss DRS in next home series.

As as English fan im glad that India arent using DRS in the upcoming test series' date=' it would have been off benefit to your spinners getting more lbs decisions.[/quote'] Even without that we will win a lot of decisions. Most likely Billy will be there :yay:

Is a tiger a bully? We still fear them right :weights::weights: Btw I think BCCI should buy out ICC and run it like F1. Would fix a lot of ills in world cricket :hatsoff::hatsoff:

Siri' date=' did Srilanka vs Pakistan series had DRS? How did it worked out? Was it a breath of fresh air in Lankan home series?[/quote'] I'll answer on siri's behalf..... both the beggar boards had no funds to afford DRS :giggle::giggle:

DRS should be there not to benefit any particular team. If it helps cleaning up howlers i am all for it even if India loses it because of that. We gotta show some respect for the game before the country. Personally i think it will help Indian bowlers more than it hurts them. Unfortunately it is the batsmen who make the calls about whether DRS should be welcomed or not.

If India was on the receiving end of this test' date=' then it would have been labelled Sydney part 2 by now.[/quote'] India has been at the wrong end a lot of times. Sydney would have been forgotten if the players had behaved properly and Bhajji was not called a racist.
