The success rates of teams, by this measure, have been broadly consistent through the history of the DRS. When I first did this analysis in , Australia were on top and West Indies were last, but the spread of results was greater.
England have fallen from South Africa have improved, while New Zealand have declined, both by about two percentage points. Misbah and Younis lead the way The batsman who has been involved in the most reviews is Misbah-ul-Haq , with 41, followed by Alastair Cook with 39 and Younis Khan with Some players acquire, fairly or otherwise, a reputation for overuse of the review system.
Some - often the same players - seem to attract lots of reviews. Perhaps it is more interesting to look at reviews initiated by batsmen themselves. One player with a reputation was Shane Watson , but he did manage to get four out of 12 decisions overturned, and his success rate was almost exactly average. In the long run, he did not overuse the system. When it comes to batsmen subjected to bowling reviews, Cook 24 and Misbah 23 were again the most reviewed batsmen, followed by Younis and Joe Root Younis is notable in that only two out of his 20 bowling reviews were overturned.
Similarly, AB de Villiers has faced many unsuccessful bowling reviews, with only two overturns out of Being given out after a decision is overturned must be a rotten experience: the most for any batsman is five, for Root, Steve Smith, Graeme Smith, Mike Hussey and James Anderson. At the other end of the scale, Dimuth Karunaratne was subjected to 11 bowling reviews but none were overturned.
Shane Watson gained a reputation for overuse of the DRS, but the numbers show he had no less success with his referrals than the average batsman.
Younis could be considered a leading batting beneficiary of DRS. There is one other batsman with a similar balance: Marlon Samuels has won five out of eight batting reviews, and has never lost out in the eight bowling reviews against him.
Where Broad trumps Anderson When it comes to bowlers, three names crop up well ahead of the rest. Rangana Herath is on reviews in total reviews initiated by batsmen and by Herath , James Anderson is on 77 and Graham Swann had Stuart Broad is next on It should be borne in mind that bowling reviews are usually group decisions involving captains, wicketkeepers and other fielders.
It should not always be blamed solely on the bowler if these are unsuccessful. Broad is evidently more selective about his challenges than Anderson. Both have managed nine overturned decisions but Anderson has made 37 failed challenges to Broad's Anderson leads in an unwanted stat: 20 times he has seen a batsman given out only to have the decision overturned.
Herath is next on 14, with Swann on Anderson's nine successful bowling reviews give him a net loss of 11 wickets.
He is the only bowler in double figures. Lyon had only one decision overturned out of his first 25 challenges; he has since had two more. Steyn, in addition to being arguably the best bowler of recent times, is also apparently the most clear-eyed, with a success rate much higher than anyone else in the top Strauss said the non-striker had a key role in helping a team avoid speculative referrals that had little chance of success.
But we're getting to grips with it and understand the mechanisms better," remarked Strauss. England getting used to UDRS.
The system is being used in a Test series in Britain for the first time. Hot-Spot: It is an infra-red imaging system which is used to find out inside edges in close LBW and caught behind calls. Snickometer: A very important component of DRS, it is used to identify edges by using directional microphones to detect small sounds. This technology was introduced to remove human error from the game. After this, the third umpire uses all the three components of this technology to give his final decision.
ICC is consistently trying is best to make this technology more conclusive and one could see a bending of rules in the recent future too. Like us on Facebook and follow us on Twitter.
