Pak coach slams SLC over DRS
Monday, 25 June 2012 - 01:33 PM

Pakistan coach Dav Whatmore yesterday slammed the absence of the Decision Review System in the series against Sri Lanka after his team suffered several umpiring errors in the first Test.

 

The Test has been marred by at least 10 contentious decisions over three days by umpires Steve Davis of Australia and Ian Gould of England, with six of them going against the tourists.

 

But the DRS, which allows players to appeal for reviews by the television umpire, is not being used in this series reportedly due to cost factors.

 

Whatmore, a former Sri Lankan coach, said he was surprised the DRS was not available for the series when it was used for Sri Lanka’s two home Tests against England in March and April.

 

Asked if Pakistan will make an official complaint about the two on-field umpires, Whatmore said he would not make a public comment on it.
