Well done mumbai grabing points.In case of sangakara bowled umpires are for dicisions and if they are with doubt they must refer third umpire.Umpires are not for gussing purpose.
There are several instances when umpires have used technology (outside of DRS, Run-outs & stumping) when they are not sure of what happened? Say, No-ball....by law they are supposed to call it when the bowler delivers the ball but so many time they ask for review after the batsman gets out. Its a good gesture instead of giving batsman out on a no-ball. Similarly, for full toss above waist height. Nobody is asking umpires to review LBWs (without DRS)but whenever in doubt Third umpire should be used otherwise...what's the use of 10 cameras on field & umpire seating in gallery!!! Also, the third umpire should be pro-active..if he knows a mistake is happening...go ahead & call on field umpires..even when they don't call him..say for 5 ball over or grounded catch claimed etc...!!
