ICC should ensure DRS in every Test: Ponting
Melbourne, Jul 20: The powerful Indian Cricket Board (BCCI) might have opposed the idea but Australian captain Ricky Ponting wants the ICC to ensure implementation of the Decision Review System (DRS) in every Test match.
The DRS, which allows teams to challenge on-field umpires' decision, has been a contentious issue ever since its introduction as some cricket boards are not keen on sharing the cost of installing the technology required for it's implementation.
The financially powerful BCCI has, however, refused to give any reason for opposing the system.
Australia are currently playing a Test series against Pakistan in England without DRS as the cash-strapped PCB has refused to share the cost.
The Aussies are likely to play against India in October without DRS again but will have the system in place when they take on England in the Ashes series.
