MCC think-tank proposes DRS rule change

The influential World Cricket Committee has proposed a change to the Decision Review System (DRS), the law-making Marylebone Cricket Club said on Friday.

The group, featuring some of the biggest names in world cricket including former Australia captains Steve Waugh and Ricky Ponting and Sri Lankan great Kumar Sangakkara, is an independent body funded by the MCC, who are the acknowledged guardians of the laws and spirit of the game.

ICC chief executive David Richardson who is also a committee member, said the governing body is paying close attention to the ideas of the MCC think-tank. The committee met in Adelaide ahead of the inaugural day-night Test, discussing many topics including the contentious DRS.
