IPL 11 has DRS

In its 11th season the IPL will finally feature the decision review system DRS. Each team will get one review for innings and third umpire will have access to both ball tracking and Ultra edge. The Pakistan Super League PSL become the first T20 tournament to use the DRS.

ICC made DRS mandatory in T20 International.





According to a senior Indian match official the DRS has been introduced belatedly in the IPL because of misconceptions. Some of the decision maker within the BCCI had held about the system in the past. In T20's one decision makes huge difference the official said. People have a misconception that only the longer format of the game need DRS but in the longer version there is enough time to absolve a mistake you make but in T20's you don't have such time. If a good inform batsman is given a wrong decision that can finish off the game completely.

Indian match official umpires has been a subject of intense debate for several years with on field decision which they complaint where inaccurate and inconsistent.

Last year MS Dhoni who was representing Rising Pune Supergiant was fined by the IPL for breaching the code of conduct after he made T sign asking for review against Mumbai Indians despite knowing their way no DRS.

BCCI conducted DRS worksshop for the 10 Indian umpires last December.
IPL will conduct seminar for umpire and match official on April 3 and 4 which will also feature a session  on the DRS.

Dinesh karthik was upset

But that question was reduced to a moot point because when you have lived it you need not read it. On Sunday at the R.Premadasa stadium in Colombo there were about 20000 people who thronged the stands even without the host playing a part in it. After a distasteful loss at the hand of Bangladesh the Sri Lankan fans had turned bitter and the only thing they had come to support was India. But when Mustafizur Rahman beat the greenhorn Vijay Sankar's bat 4 times in a row in the 18th over the crowd lost its voice for the first time and when Manish Pandey was dismissed with 34 needed off the final 12 most of them had reseted their case. Then enter Dinesh Karthik, a man who was upset only a few movement I go according to his captain because he had been kept waiting. Vijay Shankar who hadn't had a bad in the series earli...
