NEW DELHI: The Decision Review System (DRS) has once again come into the spotlight, but for a different reason following an LBW decision against England batter Joe Root, who fell victim to India’s fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah during the World Cup match in Lucknow on Sunday.
Root looked to flick it away but the ball kept a tad low and got beaten due to the lack of bounce.The balls was hit on the pads and crashed into the stumps and umpire Rod Tucker ruled in favour of Bumrah.

But Root went for a review and it appeared the ball passed the bat on the UltraEdge but the third umpire thought there was no bat involved and upheld the on field umpire decision.

The England batter was clearly unhappy with the decision and showed his displeasure to the square leg umpire while making his way back to the pavilion and also pointed to the big screen with his bat.

Bumrah wreaked havoc as he picked up two wickets in two balls to give England a denting blows early in the innings while defending a below-par total of 229.
He first cleaned up opener Dawid Malan on the penultimate delivery and then finished his over with a prized scalp of Root for a golden duck.

Mohammed Shami also joined the party and added to England’s woes as he chipped in with two wickets in as many balls dismissing Ben Stokes and Jonny Bairstow.
Earlier, skipper Rohit Sharma produced a special effort on a challenging pitch where the majority of Indian batters struggled, as the hosts were restricted to 229 for nine by England.
