SCOOP !!!.. NEW REVIEW SYSTEM UNVEILED BY THE BCCI. The BCCI have recommended its new system be accepted by the ICC in all matches involving India. The T/D UDRS, developed by two of India's top test cricketers, is described as being the most radical and innovative system yet. It claims to satisfy the stringent demands imposed by the BCCI and its players. Using a unique tracking system, all balls delivered by Indian bowlers which strike the pads are predicted to have been hitting middle stump halfway up. All those bowled by the opposition will be shown as either missing the stumps or to have hit the bat first or be a no-ball. Hotspot and snicko are retained in their current form with some small insignificant adjustments; they will be automatically disabled during the India innings and digitally enhanced during the opposition innings. The BCCI feel that with this system in place they can be 100% satisfied that all decisions will be acceptable to themselves and their players |

Well it was sachin who did not like the drs and the bcci will do as sachin likes so good on hawkeye for trying to bring him round but it's pathetic that it's not being used as all other nations like it but India used there influence to get it veto'd I really hope it comes back to bite them in the backside and the icc grow a pair |

Sorry Hatter , I tend to agree with Bob here. I dont take kindly to people raising the race card in matters like this, it restricts freedom of speech though worry of offense. This topic is about DRS and india have opted out, people have every right to make comments about india opting out without fools like yourself passing race comments.
Indian cricket Hatter is not entirely Asian, as English cricket is mostly South African lol.
You insulting me punk? You don't ever insult me.
Secondly Indian cricket isn't 100% Indian? All of the Indian squad are born in India, that's Indian enough I'd say.
Thirdly the Coach is Duncan Fletcher, who has probably as much to say about the DRS than anyone.

Hatter quote:
I didn't see you complaining when Swann and Broad where plumb LBW in 1st and 2nd innings respectively, yet was given not out, the unlucky bowler was Singh, whom is now set to be dropped and possibly end his career.
If they were plumb, and if those decisions do bring about the end of Harbahjan's career, then it serves India right... They were the ones who vetoed the LBW UDRS. If they hadn't done that they would have got those decisions, just as England would have got the two I highlighted. And that's the whole point I am making...in case you hadn't noticed. England wanted the full UDRS system, India didn't, so it's no good them whinging when decisions that they would have got if the full UDRS had been in use, go against them. They've brought it on themselves. So no sympathy from me I'm afraid.. You reap what you sow.. |

Well... back to the reason for this site... discussing cricket.. It was announced by the Sky commentary team during the game yesterday, that Tendulkar had been advised by the Hawkeye manufacturers and that he was allegedly now happy with the system, although as yet, I haven't seen a u-turn from the Indian camp. Having said that, if he is anything like an honest man, he will look at his and Raina's reprieves at the hands of Billy Bowden and admit the system has its merits. Even if Hawkeye is only used to track the ball up until the point of first interception in conjunction with the pitch map, that would alleviate howlers like those two. Furthermore had that system been in use it would also have confirmed the brilliantly correct decision by Asad Rauf, that undoubtedly would have been reviewed, which sent Gambhir on his way (much to his obvious displeasure). Just three incidents from one days play which alone should justify it's introduction.

Bob I agree 100% but as I have mentioned before that an Indian company already have this technology which is part owned by Anil Kumble and I just suspect the BCCI are looking to use this than an overseas proven product. |

If you worked in the Forces, they must've been letting real idiots into the system. |

I guess that by using Hatter's simple criteria, the Sky cricket commentary team and most UK newspapers must be racist, not to mention many posters (including a significant number of Indians) on cricinfo because of their views on the Indian veto of the UDRS. Is he suggesting that none of us would feel the same way if any test playing nation other than India, was doing the same thing. It's got nothing to do with race... it's to do with cricket and what we all feel is best for it. |

Oh Hatter...Ha ha ha... Just how desperately wrong can you be.. I served in HM Forces for 30 years and I have both a State and a service pension, both of which I have contributed to through taxation throughout my working life. Now how does it feel to be so horribly wrong about at least one of your assumptions made without any basis of fact whatsoever ? Stupid might be one answer. But we already know that. Apologetic even ? Some hopes. I guess the old adage, that when ignorance is bliss, it's folly to be wise, is rather apposite in the circumstances. I won't even dignify your racist insult with a reply. Now keep going with your adolescent insults becasue I'm enjoying goading simple-minded people like yourself, since I know nothing upsets your type more than people like me not rising to the bait. |

I don't see anyone else on the forum having a go at India(all the time), other than his Lordship Bob Martin.
I'm Chinese, but still seems like he has a serious chip on his shoulder. |
