 It wasn't a 16 wicket pitch...... It was a 7 wicket pitch plus 9 LBWs, any one of which might not have been a wicket without DRS. That system is badly flawed. |

The frailties of the DRS were badly exposed today. There was dissent from the batsmen, there was confusion every time a wicket "fell" (or might fall), there were dodgy decisions, and even experienced commentatorslike Aggers said stuff like "it was going on to hit the wicket". No it wasn't, it hit the pad, that's all we know. This is an example of when people say something so much that it becomes "fact".
