The DRS is a new innovation in cricket to measure the accuracy of dismissals. With its help, any team can challenge the decision of the umpire. However, a team is allowed to use it only twice during an innings. If an umpire gives a player not out, the fielding team can challenge his decision twice in an innings.


If the umpire’s decision is correct, the number of DRS will be deducted from the fielding team’s account, but if the fielding team is correct, then the number of review will remain only two. Similarly, if the umpire gives out to a batsman, then the batsman can challenge that decision twice. If the umpire’s decision is correct, one DRS will be deducted from the account of the batting team, but the review will be retained if the batsman is correct. The number of reviews will not decrease if the umpires call is made.

He used DRS 116 times in the last 38 months and managed to reverse the decision 35 times

Bangladesh is second in this list. He used DRS 116 times in the last 38 months and managed to reverse the decision 35 times. The umpire’s decision proved to be correct on 81 occasions. That is, his success percentage was 30.2. India is at the third place in this list. He used DRS 169 times in Tests since 2020 and managed to overturn the umpire’s decision 48 times. The umpire’s decision was correct on 121 occasions. India’s success percentage in DRS stood at 28.4. DRS was also called the Dhoni Review System in the early days, because most of the DRS taken by Mahendra Singh Dhoni during his captaincy were in favor of India.

Australia has been one of the most lax countries in terms of taking DRS. The figures testify to this. The Kangaroo team is one of the bottom three countries with the lowest success percentage in DRS in Tests since 2020. Australia used DRS 119 times during this period and were successful 27 times. His success percentage is 22.7.

At the same time, Indian team captain Rohit Sharma gave an example of accuracy.
