ICC shd try this

a team will get 2 chances each while batting and 2 chances while bowling.

if a batsmen thinks that he is not out he can make a request to the field umpire to check it with the 3rd umpire.

same way a bowler can request the umpire to have a look by the 3rd umpire. if he thinks that the batsmen is out leg before or caught behind etc...

so there will be 8 chances over all. it will not consume much time. and umpires will also feel pressure free.

in the recent perth test, there are 4 to 5 bad decisions made by the umpires, twice with sachin, and then in 2nd innings, hussy and symonds.

whats u r say ????

seems to be a good one. But anyway scrap the test matches to 3 or 4 days as with greater use of technology no way a game can go upto the 5th day.

It is good idea. It should be implemented by ICC. Each team should be given 90 Overs each in both inings. So That under any circumstances it will be completed by 4 days. If a team batting first( who has the qouta of 90 overs to bat) gets all out in 60 Overs, Then fielding team will come and bat their qouta of 90 Overs. The Followon policy should be scrapped. Another rule should also be implemented. If bats first scores 300 runs by completing their qouta of 90 Overs, but the team batting second comes and scores 330 runs in their qouta of 90 overs. In the second inings first team again comes and scores 375 runs. Then the second inings target for the second team will be 345runs. So they are supposed to score 345 runs in 90 overs. If they are not able score the required runs they result should be they loose the match irrespective whether they have the wickets in hand or not. In this way results will be their for all the matches and people will start seeing taking interest in seeing those matches.
