Whats your point. When in power use it to your best advantage, thats the unwritten rule of the world.
England and Australia did it for decades, they use to get 2 votes each in ICC decisions till not so long ago.
No one travels to or invites any of not so well off cricket board teams to their country because there is no money in it.
Use it while you have it. Make as many friends as possible on the way, so they can support in your times of trouble.
India had a taste of review system in world cup and felt it good; and in recent series against WI due to poor umpiring and India facing the most they finally decided to support it however if they suddenly support it then people will be astonished about their earlier rejection; so taking out one clause they are showing the happiness..
Even without predictive tracking, the modified UDRS can still help in arriving at correct LBW decisions by: a) determining whether the ball has pitched outside the leg-stump; b) determining whether the point of impact of the ball on the pads is outside the line of the off-stump if the batsman has made a genuine attempt to play the ball; c) determining whether the ball has taken a faint inside-edge of the bat before hitting the pads, and that it has hit the bat first before the pads.

Do you remember last series in england, he got out 3 times in 90s and all the decisions were not out. Also, the pakistan game you talking about there was full version of DRS implemented in it. I guess you also of the opinion that DRS will help fielders catch better, you are simply out of your mind.

Only way it will help LBW decision is if the batsman is given out and he has nicked the ball.
DRS cannot be used to check where the ball has pitched or point of impact, that is done by the trajectory tool which is not is use.

I think its wrong to beleive that UDRS is basically insult of umpire. Every one has the right to have a view if you disagree with someone does not mean you have intentions of insulting them.
We can do without UDRS, if there are strict rules for umpires as well. Double there salary and deduct 20% for every bad decision 15 bad decisions and you suspended for 6 month.
I have heard a lot about they are human and all that, but they are no different to anyone who gets up in the morning and goes to the office. If you do bad job consistently you get fired, especially if you get paid as much as they get paid and their one bad decision can destroy someones career.

If umpires on field had been so accurate, then there was no need for Third umpire who gives decisions on replays for Run out, stumping, handled the ball etc.
But don't you that of late umpires are doing horrible mistakes and the number of wrong decisions is growing fast.
LBW and Caught Behind have been majority of the wrong decisions, and if UDRS is not used in these two types of decisions, then UDRS is as good as nothing.

Eventhough i agree that UDRS should be used for LBW as well, it should be without hawkeye till hawkeye is mature.
