Internation Cricket in 5 years time...

I would like to see TV replays on all LBW's and close catches!
Free hits in test cricket

I think any technology that could help the umpires in making the right choices should to included into the game.

bring back uncovered pitches!

Not in Manchester, unless global warnimg really gets a hold lol!

lol! i can back up that statement!

a coloured strip down the middle of the pitch between the stumps to show the ump if the ball has pitched in or outside the line

Sounds good to me!

i like the human element but. if its clearly out and ump says no get the 3rd ump in there. i reckon mitchell johnson will be the best going round. and matty hayden is still balsting attacks all over the place

Bigger crowds, bigger hits and more popular

I actually disagree about this. It is just unnatural having this technology and good decisions and bad ones are a key part of the game. I think having that technology will spoil it.

Spot on Alex!

I dont like all these modern day technology as it tend to make the umpires look and if not feel bad

Its too easy to critise them with thim modern day era

thats probly a fair call.

Wouldn't put you of as a batsman? It certainly would put me off!

that would also help the batsmen get his line and avoid wide of offstump balls easily

Technology is the way forward.
Shorter format of the game is the way forward.


Like it or hate it.. but it WILL happen

agree alex. Believe Umpires should be allowed to make mistakes and should ban slow mo's and hawk eye. I do believe though that the referalls system should work. The one in which the 3rd umpire gets to see the appeal from the same angle andsame speed the umpire does.

LOL sameer - "Shorter game is the way forward" were going to have 6/6 games!

6/6?
Would you have you use 6 bowlers?
Curious?

It was a joke Marcus

i said curious
as in would it be possible

still funny made my lol

i meant shorter format because it suits TV and media - more money init folks

I guess ICL, IPL and the T20 icc Cup are all the beginning.

Obviously when ur a player, test and 50over games are the best.

I would much to prefer to play in a test match than a 20/20!
But for the fans nothing beats a 20/20...but i think the bowl off is stupid
