Understanding DRS in Cricket

The Decision Review System (DRS) has been a significant part of cricket for several years. According to ICC regulations, players can challenge an umpire's decision using DRS, which employs technologies like video replays, ball tracking, Hawk-Eye, Hot Spot, and pitch mapping to reassess calls. Whenever DRS is mentioned, former Indian captain MS Dhoni is often highlighted for his adept use of the system, leading to it being colloquially referred to as the 'Dhoni Review System.' However, Indian fast bowler Mohammad Siraj presents a contrasting scenario.


Gavaskar's Light-hearted Remark on Siraj

Mohammad Siraj is well-known for his aggressive bowling style and passionate demeanor on the field. However, he also has a tendency to hastily challenge umpire decisions. During lunch on the third day of the Leeds Test, cricket legend Sunil Gavaskar humorously commented on this trait, suggesting that DRS should be renamed to 'Patience, Siraj.'


Siraj frequently urges his captain to utilize DRS whenever he disagrees with an umpire's call. While this eagerness sometimes proves beneficial, it can also lead to hasty decisions. This was evident in the recent Leeds Test, where he was seen persistently requesting DRS from his captain. Gavaskar's playful jab at Siraj's habit quickly gained traction on social media.


Cheteshwar Pujara Joins in the Fun

During the lunch break on the third day of the Leeds Test, Indian player Cheteshwar Pujara also chimed in on Siraj's habit with a witty remark. Pujara noted that whenever the ball strikes a batsman's pads, Siraj immediately believes it should be an out.
