Kumble gave the example of how DRS has been a game-changer in the decision making process. “There is the influence of DRS [Decision Review System] already in cricket and I am sure there will be more technological influence on decision making as we go along,” Kumble said.

“Also the fact about players’ acceptance of being a part of this innovation, otherwise you will be left behind,” added the stalwart, who has a staggering 619 Test wickets from 132 matches.
