The International Cricket Council (ICC) has once again come out in support of the controversial Decision Review System (DRS), which was not found consistent in the last Test Match.

The ICC conducted a review of the decisions and said that DRS has improved by 5.5 percent since 2012-13.

The umpires made a total of 72 decisions, which is well above the average (49) for a DRS Test match. The umpiring team was assessed to have made seven errors during the match, out of which three were uncorrected decisions and four decisions were corrected using the DRS.
