SRS in IPL : Now SRS instead of DRS in IPL! | leader









New Delhi, News Agency: Indian Premier League is the biggest cricket league in the world. The technology used in this is more up-to-date than the international competition. Now there is a new change from IPL 2024 and Smart Replay System (SRS) will be introduced in IPL from this year instead of 'DRS'. This is going to be an updated version of DRS. With the help of this system, the umpires will be of great help in making the right decisions. A report by ESPN claims that IPL 2024 will not have DRS but SRS.

According to the report, eight high-speed Hawkeye cameras will be installed throughout the stadium. A smart replay system will be used to increase the accuracy and speed of decision-making. Two Hawk Eye operators will accompany the TV umpires. TV umpires will get direct input from these two hawk eye operators. They will feed the photos captured by Hawk Eye's eight high speed cameras to the TV judges. Until now, the TV broadcast director was between the third umpire and the hawk eye operator. The new system will also have two Hawkeye operators to assist the TV director.

Until now, broadcasters could not show a fielder's legs and arms simultaneously on a split screen while taking a catch. But now the new system will allow umpires to see when the ball is caught and released with the legs in a split screen. Until IPL 2023, Hawkeye cameras were mainly used for ball tracking and ultra edge. Broadcasters therefore used footage from their own cameras extensively for referrals on pitches other than lbw and the edge of the bat. These included referrals for stumping, run outs, catches and overthrows.

The new system for stumping will give the TV umpire three photos. Front on footage from the side on cameras will also appear at the same time. The front-on camera angle is important because it gives a clear picture of the falling bales. Earlier broadcasters would show each side angle with footage from the stump cam. But while stump cams record action at around 50 frames per second, hawk eye cameras record at around 300 frames per second.

Referees will now have more accurate footage to make their decisions. The Smart Review system will also provide greater clarity on catches that are caught a few inches off the ground. Such references have led to controversy over TV umpires' decisions in the past. But now this new system will make decision making easier.
