Pakistani umpire Aleem Dar, who has won three consecutive ICC Umpire of the Year awards in 2009, 2010 and 2011, has strongly backed the use of technology in cricket, and has called for its consistent utilization.
In an exclusive interview with PakPassion.net, Dar claimed consistent use of technology in cricket would make the task easier for umpires.
When asked whether he was in favor of the Decision Review System (DRS), Dar said: “Definitely. I’m strongly in favour of the DRS and I think it’s very helpful to umpires sometimes.”
“Some umpires do find it uncomfortable having to reverse a decision that they have made in front of thousands at the ground and millions on television. But umpires are human they will make mistakes too. One incorrect decision can change the whole scenario of a match and that’s why I am in favour of the DRS,” he added.
