But the puzzling thing is why, when DRS has apparently been used successfully and without that much controversy in the past, has there been so much controversy in this Ashes series. What's changed? Is it the umpires or the perception of those watching them? Or something else?
1.its probably that the aussies used it terribly in the first couple of tests and in the next couple the 3rd umpire has interpreted it incorrectly
2.there seems to be an uproar if a decision isnt correct with drs whereas it used to be brushed off as "part of the game", people seem to think that it should be 100% correct decision with drs and get very annoyed when that isnt the case and suggest that it isnt working even though it has significantly increased the number of correct decisions
3.hotspot seems to have gone backwards also, its like the cameras are less sensitive now or something
1.no doubt
2.Agree, but also an incorrect decision is often confused with a clash of opinions or dislike of a decision against one's supported side.
3. Is this a coincidence? Does the tape furore have some credence?
