During a teleconference with the Indian media, Allardice said: "I know he's (Kumble) been part of the pre-committee for I think four years now, and one of the things that he was keen to do when he came on as chairman was to make sure that the technologies that were used as part of DRS were assessed independently and he's driven a lot of that project and it's taken awhile to get to the stage where we've got results of testing, etc.
"But he (Kumble) has been very supportive of the project. He's been very instrumental in the process that we've taken with the assessment of technology and the approval process and new technologies; he's taken a methodical approach," he added.
