Veteran Indian off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin has praised the adoption of the Decision Review System (DRS) in domestic cricket, citing its role in helping batters refine their techniques. The system is in use in the ongoing Duleep Trophy matches in Bengaluru and Anantapur, marking the first deployment of DRS in domestic competitions.
Ashwin pointed to the dismissal of India D batter Ricky Bhui as an illustration of DRS's impact. Bhui, who was dismissed lbw after a successful review by India C captain Ruturaj Gaikwad, had his technique of keeping the bat behind the pad exposed, leading to the overturning of the original not-out decision.
