BCCI against the DRS in test matches

New Delhi, May 12 (PTI) A staunch critic of the Decision Review System, the BCCI says it would oppose the ICC Cricket Committee’s recommendation for the controversial innovation’s introduction in all Test matches when the matter comes up before the governing body’s executive board next month.

The ICC Cricket Committee, after reviewing the use of the DRS in a two-day meeting in London, recommended that the system be used in all Test matches.

It also recommended that DRS should be used in ODI and Twenty20 series with each side allowed one unsuccessful review per innings.

The DRS, which has been used in Test cricket since 2009 and over the past two years has featured in 31 matches, currently allows each side two unsuccessful reviews per innings.
