England had plenty concerns at the start of the tour when they were barely able to rustle up 11 fit men, but one by one the wounded are returning to the fray. Stuart Broad has overcome his shoulder problem and seems likely to slot in in place of Sajid Mahmood, while Graeme Swann has resumed training after a side strain, and could yet replace Rashid, unless the management take a punt on the uncapped offspinner, James Tredwell. Meanwhile, the unexpected success of Tim Bresnan as a new-ball sidekick to James Anderson has expanded the options available to his captain.
The ICC has confirmed that the Umpire Decision Review System (UDRS) will be used during South Africa’s home Test series against England next month.
The use of reviews for the forthcoming series in South Africa had been uncertain because of doubts over the home board’s willingness to help fund the technology, but the ICC has now confirmed that the system will be in place.
South Africa coach Mickey Arthur welcomed the use of the system. “I’m all in favour of anything which helps to reach the correct decision but, in an ideal world, that would mean having the same system in place all over the world,” he said.
A review system was trialled last year, but a reluctance to cede power from the onfield officials meant that the third umpire was prevented from using all the available technology, and this fudged process led to a series of notable mishaps – not least during the first Test in Jamaica, when Ramnaresh Sarwan was reprieved by guesswork after the onfield umpire Tony Hill had given him out lbw.
