TV replays.

There have already been one or two posts on this blog about the use - or non-use - of video technology as an assist to referees in football matches, but now we have to face the same problem in cricket. There were several dodgy decisions in the last test match - not that the umpires should be criticised - seen at normal speed one thing seemed to have happened, but examined in slow motion it would appear something different had occurred. Perhaps because it's a stop and start game, cricket lends itself more to the idea of reviewing incidents as they happen, but once again, a situation where the viewer has better information than the umpire is not good for the game.
