Ponting says UDRS isnt doing job its supposed to do. Murali wants UDRS to be forced by ICC. Well thats opportunistic.
Long back in 2008, when UDRS was first experimented in India - SL series, SL won the series 2-1 as most of the UDRS decisions went SL way and Indians were left baffling. i am not sure if Anil made any noise then about the effectiveness of UDRS, he is not even supposed to make anything known publicly.
26-3 in front of SL which is extremist score. 26 reviews went in favor of SL and 3 in favor of India.
No Lankan cricketer had a holistic view of UDRS that time cos they had won a series 2-1 and they had got a supposedly new super star in now flattened Ajantha Bakery Mendis. And now the aura of M&M is demolished and bitten to dust along with a 0-2 series loss beckons, suddenly Murali wants UDRS to be enforced.
Losers crib, winners stay quiet. The same winners when they lose, they crib. Unfortunately for the first set of losers, the 2008 losers didn't crib and when the same side would be the winner again later tomorrow morning, the same people wont be asking to force UDRS.
Its all about the excuses and attitude, Lankans made a huge noise before they stepped here for their Tests leg of the tour and they also left a door open expecting they would lose for the excuses, now one more has come up in form of UDRS. They've got no right talking the business about UDRS.
They played poor cricket and they are worthy losers. Simple.
