Totally agree HW, suppose I just think it should be embedded in the game now as soon as..

the ball is bowled, the speed with the tech, the umpire's could be told immediately and give the no ball. It's also pretty lazy habit from the Umpire's who have got used to the replays. When there was none of the modern tech, they used to be able to check the no ball and the batsman in one view and I reckon across the board, bowling in the 70's 80's was far faster than it is now!

        Yep. The big problem I see with getting the balance right is also that the umpire... (Other Sports) - DrDublin, Aug 21, 20:15:26
