Q: If there was one rule you could change in cricket what would it be?
A: The umpires call on DRS reviews.

It should be irrelevant if reviewed using DRS. you either rely on technology fully or you don't.

Q: I'd love to get people's feedback on the coin toss in Test cricket. With all the discussion about pitch preparation and local captains requesting preferable home team pitch conditions what if they did away with the coin toss and allowed the away team to choose whether they wanted to bat or bowl first?
A: Yes the home team has an advantage with the conditions and yes home captains might be influencing the kinds of wickets prepared for home series but giving the visiting captain the right to choose is a horrible idea.

With the toss atleast there is a 50% chance that the home captain's decision might back fire but giving the visiting team a choice is just not on.

Touring is always a tough gig and that is what test matches are about. A good player or team would perform well in all conditions. Yes they might have to work harder than usual but that is what test cricket is all about.
