Recently, former India captain and batsman Sachin Tendulkar had said in a video chat with former West Indies captain and batsman Brian Lara that the purpose of using technology in cricket is to make decisions right.
Tendulkar, meanwhile, suggested removing the umpires' call from the umpire's decision review system, the DRS, saying the batsman should be given a LBW when the ball is hitting the stumps.
Tendulkar has made it clear that he does not agree with the ICC on the DRS decision on LBW. He says the field decision in the DRS can only be changed if half of the ball is seen hitting the stumps, which is not correct.
Tendulkar says that when the matter goes to the third umpire, he uses technology in it, then it should be decided by technology, as in tennis, the ball is either inside the court or outside. There is no middle ground.
Former Indian sniper Harbhajan Singh also tweeted in support of Sachin.
He wrote: 'Paaji, I agree with you that if the ball touches the stumps, the batsman should be declared out. It doesn't matter how much of the ball hits the stumps. The rules need to change to improve the game, and that's one of them.
What are the principles of UDRS?
In fact, under the UDRS rule, when a player objects to the umpire's decision, he can appeal to the third umpire to decide the right or wrong of the decision by watching the recording on TV. But UDRS requires the consent of both the cricket boards before the series.
It has been argued in the past that the ICC should implement UDRS in all countries as it would improve the game but the BCCI has opposed it.
However, not all countries have the necessary technology for UDRS. The investigation revealed that 96 per cent of the decisions were correct due to the use of UDRS, but even without it, 92 per cent of the decisions were correct.
The BCCI believes that technology cannot make a 100% correct decision, so there is no need to implement it.
What does the green deer of the international umpire say?
Two or Three things are Important, Especially in the case of the LBW, the Umpire First looks at where the ball is pitched, where it fell, hit the pads and not the bat, said Hari Harn, the international umpire. Collision He then wants to make sure that the next ball hits the stumps. It doesn't matter what percentage of the ball hits the stumps at twenty, thirty or fifty percent, that's the first point.
And The second point is whether the ball will hit the stumps or not. In this case- if the umpire has a dilemma, He goes to the third umpire for a DRS decision. He sees if the ball is pitched in the right place. The third umpire then decides whether the field umpire's decision is right or wrong.
Whether he sees the ball hitting the stumps or not- ten, twenty or fifty percent is not important. If the ball hits the stumps, the batsman is out. The most important thing is where the ball is being pitched, where it is coming from and then whether it is hitting the stumps or not. Now, if there is any doubt in the mind of the umpire or the third umpire about any of these things, he takes advantage of the doubt and declares the batsman not out.
The umpires make clear where the green deer pitched the ball, the impact of the ball and the impact on the stumps. If the umpire has any doubts about any of these, he will declare the batsman 100% not out.
When doubts arise in the mind of the field umpire, he goes to the third umpire. According to the technique, if the ball is hitting the stumps, give out to the batsman.
What does Hari Haran say to Sachin's question?
Now the question is that in TV replay if the ball is touching the stumps or going above the stumps then why the batsman is declared not out?
In reply, umpire Hari Haran said that it has been observed many times that even after hitting the ball on the stumps, sometimes the bells do not fall and the batsman does not get out. On several occasions, she falls and the batsman is out. Therefore, even in such a situation, the batsmen are not given out.
So according to Sachin Tendulkar, should a batsman be dismissed?
In reply, umpire Hari Haran said that the batsman should be given out, but there are three different things, pitching, impact and hitting the stumps, pitching will go a little out. In impact, the batsman should be in front of the wicket and the impact of the ball in the stumps should be the call of the umpires. Therefore, the batsman can be dismissed.
On the other hand, adopting UDRS technology is not cheap and not every country has this facility. Umpire Hari Haran sarcastically replied that if you also want to play cricket and use technology then where did the question of cheap and expensive come from.
Will Sachin's words be accepted?
Akash Chopra clearly says that Sachin's point will not be accepted because it has a fundamental shortcoming. Maybe in the future, the rule is that if the umpires are called out, they are out and if they are not out, they will be considered not out because there can be no two things. We have to make the same rule.
Akash Chopra also says that one problem here is that if the umpire gives out then he gets out and if he gives not out then he is not out while the ball hits the same percentage stumps, maybe this rule will change but if Some people think that only 5% of the ball hits the wicket and if the batsman is given out then it will not happen. As long as there is a lack of technique and there is any doubt, the wicket of a batsman cannot be lost so easily.
Akash Chopra says that there is no speculation about badminton or tennis. In cricket, there is a batsman on the pitch, then the ball hits the pad or the body, then what will happen after that, no one can see it, can only guess or think.
