Summary
Imagine if Royal Challengers miss out on the play-offs this year by a point or two.The time has come for cricket to acknowledge that there are more decisions that require the scrutiny of reviews than just those involving wickets.The criticism of Ravi's error included a tweet from Kevin Pietersen, a former RCB captain: 'In the world of technology that we live in, a NO BALL like that should NOT happen! After all, the entire system for reviews is predicated on the on-field umpire's decision.Overturns occur only if there is clear and conclusive evidence that the man in the middle got it wrong, whether for player reviews or clean catches led by the on-field umpire's soft signal.So there is no way at the moment to rectify the error that showed up in a simple side-on replay - one that Ravi didn't spot in real-time - and directly affected the outcome of the game.By definition, this was a howler, the very thing that DRS was brought in to eradicate.
