Ever since Rohit Sharma has assumed the full-time leadership of India's white-brawl team, his record with the Determination Review Arrangement (DRS) has been simply outstanding.

He has got more decisions right than he has wrong.

Legendary batter Sunil Gavaskarwas then impressed with his DRS calls during the beginning ODI against the Due west Indies that he likened the 34-year-one-time'due south DRS success with that of former skipper MS Dhoni and suggested that the reviews could be called "Rohit system"given his incredible success rate.

"When Dhoni was there I used to call information technology the Dhoni Referral System. And I mentioned it in the commentary that you can now definitely telephone call it the Rohit system because he is getting it absolutely right so far," Gavaskar had said while on air during the first ODI last calendar week.

Rohit'due south DRS success rate is not down to himself. Every time he wasn't also sure of what to practise, he turned to his teammates, especially his predecessor, Virat Kohli, and acted every bit per their advice.

In the opening ODI, in that location was an instance when Rohit valued Kohli'south advice over others and challenged the on-field conclusion despite wicket-keeper Rishabh Pant'southward constant reluctance.

Back then, Kohli had received huge praise on social media for helping the skipper make the right decision, and rightly so.

But y'all can't exist right all the time. Kohli and Team India realised this during the opening come across of the 3-match T20I series against the Windies.

In the eight over of the innings, debutant Ravi Bishnoi bowled a googly that went downward the leg side and Indian players were sure that it had hit the bat on its way to the keeper'due south gloves. Merely the on-field umpire didn't concur and turned downwards their huge appeal for caught-behind.

At present, it was fourth dimension for Rohit to determine if he wanted to claiming the umpire'due south conclusion or non. He and Kohli were involved in an interesting churr in the middle with the clock ticking fast.

" Bat aur pad dono laga hai (the ball has nicked both bat and pad)," Kohli can be heard saying in the stump mic.

"Ye wide kidhar de raha hai yaar (and so why is he giving wide)," replied an blithe Rohit, after the on-field umpire turned down the appeal and outstretched his artillery to point a wide.

"Practice aawaj aaya hai (in that location were two sounds)," Kohli insisted.

"Do review hai na? (we have two reviews, right?)," Rohit enquired.

"Principal bol raha hu le, practice aawaj aaya hai (I am saying go for it, at that place were two sounds)," said Kohli while pushing Rohit to go for the DRS.

Both the players were convinced there was a definite nick off the bat merely the umpire's broad signal put a doubt in his mind. However, the Delhi-born somehow managed to convince Rohit notwithstanding over again and he signalled for the DRS with only a couple of seconds left on the timer.

The replay showed that the brawl had kissed the batter'south pad on its way to the keeper and there was no bat involved merely notwithstanding Bharat kept their review.

Later Rohit signalled to accept the DRS, the umpire turned him down maxim that he was anyhow going upstairs to cheque the stumping phone call and the Television umpire volition check all the possible modes of dismissals, including the defenseless-behind.
