There will be no reviews of LBW decisions during the forthcoming England-India Test and one-day series, the International Cricket Council (ICC) announced yesterday.
Indian concerns over the reliability of ball-tracking technology meant the ICC was unable to get universal adoption of the full Umpire Decision Review System (UDRS) for all international matches at a recent meeting.
Now, for the four-Test and five-match one-day series between England and India, there will be no HawkEye predictive tracking system for LBWs.
However, 'Hot Spot' imaging technology and stump microphone audio will be able to assist the on-field umpires with caught decisions.
ICC chief executive Haroon Lorgat, said: "While we are disappointed that the full UDRS will not be used to support the umpires, we are pleased that the ECB and BCCI have worked hard to ensure the minimum UDRS is used in this series. It is common knowledge that the ICC and ECB would have liked ball tracking to have been included so that LBW decisions could have also been reviewed."
