DRS not 100% perfect but will eliminate errors: Stuart MacGill

Australian paceman Stuart MacGill has reckoned that the use of Decision Review System (DRS) in cricket will eliminate chances of mistakes but admitted the technology is not cent percent accurate.

He said India should not be blamed over refusing to use the DRS because the International Cricket Council has made its use optional.

He also rejected the proposal that the DRS should be uniformly adopted in all international matches, and added that umpire should have a final word in the game.

His statement came after one of the competent umpires Aleem Darhad had called on for the DRS to be uniformly implemented in international cricket, The Sydney Morning Herald reports.

He called on the umpires to understand the players’ emotions when they are unable to dominate the situation in the game.

“Many bowlers who are getting smacked all over the park believe they're going to get dropped if the wickets don't start flowing. The poison that might (or in my case did) erupt from a bowler after an appeal being turned down is often a response to the situation, not your family, your ability or your future as an umpire,” he said.
