#4 Decision Review System
The current Decision Review System (DRS), to be honest, is flawed, and you can understand why the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) is against it. It is never 100% correct, and the way it is being implemented in the world game defies logic.
One of the main defects of the current form of DRS is that, for a particular ball, there can two different decisions. When there is review for an LBW appeal, we often see an orange graphic that says ‘umpire’s call’: now in this case when the ball is not hitting flush in the line of the stumps, the decision stays with the on-field call, which could be out or not out depending on the earlier decision
This ambiguity needs to be removed, and there should be a clear decision from the Hawk-Eye as to whether it is out or not out. There should be a clear answer from the review depending on how the ICC decides to interpret the decisions. In my opinion, if the ball is hitting more than 50% in line with the stumps, it should be out; if not, it should be not out.
