“DRS is not foolproof”- Aakash Chopra discusses Ben Stokes’ concerns regarding the umpire’s call in the Test series against India
Ben Stokes, the England captain, expressed displeasure when a couple of umpire’s call decisions didn’t favor his team in the recent Test and suggested that it should be done away with.
Aakash Chopra, a former Indian cricketer, shared his perspective on this matter in a recent video on his YouTube channel. He disagreed with Stokes, explaining that the umpire’s call should be retained as DRS is not entirely foolproof.
Aakash Chopra stated: “Ben Stokes has said that he is not liking DRS. He asked the umpire’s call to be removed. DRS is not foolproof. So you go towards the umpire’s call as you are not 100% certain. You say that is what was the umpire’s job, so you remain out if the umpire gave it out and not-out if he gave not-out. In fact, that was the truth. It is not a howler. What you are trying to remove is already removed by default.”
