Saha takes the blame. Dude didn't even appeal for a caught behind when batsman had nicked it. How would he know about other dismissals?

 

It's very difficult to get DRS right with a keeper who is sleeping out there.

NO he does not .He has always been vocal but kohli is far too eccentric to listen.

Then I haven't watched much. But why would Kohli ignore them if he doesn't field around the batsman?

We need to follow a method while taking reviews.  ( keeping in mind the DRS rules )

 

It has to be a logical process based on facts and not based on gut-feel and instincts.

 

Kumble needs to give clear guidelines to the captain, wicket-keeper, bowlers, close-in-fielders  as well as batsmen regarding how to take reviews logically.

 

There is no point in taking reviews regarding decisions about which even we are uncertain ( as Umpire's call would stand in a 50:50 case ).... unless it is past the 70th over and both reviews are left or  the wicket involved is the last critical one while either batting or bowling.

 

Our use of DRS has been very poor so far.

Yeah, if you see keeper's reaction you would be think that batsman didn't nick it. 

 

Batsman and keeper are best people know about the such edges. India had no review left and Saha could have cost us a wicket with this.

Thats rare.Fact is Its a team effort wk can help with line but bat pad and generally bowlers have to take responsibility.

Yadav to SE Marsh, no run, unplayable. This has hit a crack and gone the other away, against the angle. From short of a length, it jags away. Beats him by a week. Half a shout for catch, but they don't review. Rightly so. Hang on. This replay is interesting. This ball kissed the thumb on the way. Saha was the only one excited, but they decided against reviewing

What's going on here?

Kohli didn't even ask Saha there, just looked at Umesh who wasn't sure. The stats in the OP only mention badly taken reviews, there have been 2 instances this series of batsmen getting out but either review not taken or reviews used up earlier for desperation.
