Why is it that we feel that most of the umpiring decisions go against us? The experts say that many decisions in Brisbane went against us! How many ten fifteen or all twenty?

BCCI has lot of Ego which is hurting the team. No system is 100% foolproof...but even 90% is good enough then not having at all.

DRS is there in the first place, to lessen the umpiring blunders

Dhoni says umpires are more perfect than DRS.
merely bcoz some decisions rgoing against indians some r crying for drs. so whats drs? its just referring max 2 decisions for review!!! instead, there shud b all decisions referred to third ump whenever in doubt.

right now, its just to pressurise ind to go for drs that purposely decisions r given against ind. (earlier also they hv been partial against us).
ICC is doing nothing to improve standard of umpiring and game of cricket. Batsmen are going for cheeky and cross batted shots even in test cricket. we hardly find these days cover drives glances square cuts, in fact straight drives are history. as far as umpiring no single umpire in current elite panel list will be fit do test match umpiring . BCCI with richest body not able to produce single test match umpire. pathetic. Cricket has become hybrid sport of baseball Golf Tennis
Definitely DRS is better than getting raw deals from Umpires, especially considering the fact that most of the present day umpires yield to pressure and the louder the appeal the easier to get a decision, especially from somebody like Erasmus and Gould.
DRS is ok but also we require standard of umpiring is required to improved. unless that is done no technology can help the game.see 30-40 years back with any technology Legendary umpire Dicky Bird and later David shepard , simon Tuffel, Venkat ragavan , Some extent steve bucknor have done great job with our DRS

Current umpires also doing great job.
VVS has ignored the fact that nothing really becomes foolproof. Even when you take a flight thare is that outside chance that something will go wrong with the plane, yet we keep flying while industry makes improvements.
DRS has reached enough maturity to justify its deployment and will be continuously improved. To look for a fool proof system is day dreaming.
Harbhajan is dead right in his assessment of DRS and the wrong decisions at Adelaide and Brisbane.
YES, WHEN TECHNOLOGY IS AVAILABLE. TEAM INDIA SHOULD AVAIL IT. THIS IS SIMPLY A WRONG NOTION OF BCCI THAT THEY ARE NOT WILLING TO TAKE IT. IT SHOULD SIMPLY LEFT ON INDIAN COACH, CAPTAIN AND TEAM PLAYER WHETHER TO TAKE IT OR NOT. BECAUSE BCCI DON'T PLAY ON FIELD. IT'S PLAYER WHO PLAY ON FIELD. SO, THEY SHOULD BE GIVEN THE FULL POWER TO TAKE DECISION.
