We are open to DRS if it's near-perfect: BCCI to ICC

Dharamsala: ICC General Manager Geoff Allardice is all set to submit a presentation on upgraded Decision Review System before the BCCI in New Delhi on October 20 in presence of president Anurag Thakur.


One can also expect chief coach Anil Kumble and captain Virat Kohli, who will be in New Delhi for the ODI, to be present as he is also the chairman of the ICC Cricket Committee.


"We have never said no to DRS. We are open to DRS if it is near perfection. During the last tour of Sri Lanka, we had said that we have no objection to DRS if the system is improved," BCCI president Thakur told reporters.


"The ICC General Manager will be here and make a presentation before Kumble and others in New Delhi on October 20. After that only we can say whether the improved version of DRS is acceptable to us or not" he added.

Meanwhile, the BCCI announced Rs 1 crore reward for the Indian team for becoming the No. 1 ICC Test side following its 3-0 rout of New Zealand. Thakur, however, said the Board will first have to take the Supreme Court's permission on the matter.
