It is a disturbing sight every time the umpire makes a decision to have the batsman or the fielding side grouping to discuss the decision. As a sports fan who has been watching Test cricket for over three decades, I feel that the current systems of the game deprive a viewer of the real moments of a Test match. The rules are so lopsided that we seem to be moving from match to match offering only what sells. The DRS episodes are so ugly that if things continue this way, we are likely to see technology making a complete takeover of the game. We must not forget that umpiring is judgment based on one’s cricketing skills.
