DRS (Decision Review System)

The Decision Review System (DRS) is a technology-assisted process used in cricket to help umpires make accurate decisions. When a player or team disagrees with a call—such as whether a batter is out—they can request a review. Using tools like ball-tracking, infrared, and video replays, the technology analyzes the incident to offer additional evidence. DRS aims to reduce incorrect decisions and ensure fair play, but the final decision still rests with the umpires, who consider the technology's insights alongside their judgment.
