@Haunebu i don't think anyone remotely understand how this DLS system works. Brain cell starts to die everytime i try to understand it lol

the DLS system is actually good, it takes the net run rate, the required run rate, wickets in hand, overs reduced, and almost everything in two accounts and decides a target, but it does not take into account the situation of the outfield and also the condition of the pitch, that’s the biggest problem

Lol that's a weird one, forgetting neutral umpire's ruling?
Also i do remember famous Bucknor and couple of others who loved to raise fingers at any given time when Indians were batting.
At start BCCI was under impression that it's a flowed tech and locally their players had no experience, it's more similar to their initial reluctance for Day-Night (pink ball) matches.

For every one Bucknor, we have 10-15 from the other side. I really don't know what was the issue with Bucknor. He used to hate the Indian players for whatever be the reason. Anyway, when all the other boards were fine with DRS, the BCCI was the only board which opposed it. Naturally that gives rise to suspicion. Whenever a new innovation was proposed in cricket, the BCCI came out against it. Remember their opposition to the T20 format two decades back? We were fortunate that back then they didn't had much power or dominance over the ICC.

i don’t think they could have done anything even if they had the power that they have right now over ICC, because i believe that every other team would have actually excepted that T20 format like they did and India actually could have become an outcast, but it’s good that anything like this didn’t happen, and ironically India is generating the most revenue through IPL which is based on the T20 format
