Ask the batters what they feel about that,&quot; Kohli was quoted as saying by a famous website&nbsp;on Sunday.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;\">&quot;We literally just came into this Test match with very less time on hand. So now that we have time, I am sure these discussions will take place.&quot;<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;\">India is the only team who insist on not using the DRS in a series, but things appear to be changing.&nbsp;<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;\">Last year, Kohli&#39;s predecessor Mahendra Singh Dhoni had opened up on the possibility of India changing their mind about the DRS if it would assess an appeal independently and not try to &quot;justify&quot; the on-field umpire&#39;s call.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;\">The situation has changed from when N. Srinivasan, then BCCI president, dubbed DRS &quot;a faulty system&quot; in October 2013.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;\">Earlier this month, International Cricket Council (ICC) CEO Dave Richardson said the BCCI doesn&#39;t want the DRS because it goes &quot;against the spirit of cricket.&quot;&nbsp;<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;\">The ICC argued that umpires getting heavily criticised and teams threatening to leave a series due to umpiring are reasons to consider the DRS.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;\">&quot;We have always said that we would like to have the same rules for everybody as far as DRS is concerned and implement it on a uniform, consistent basis,&quot; Richardson said.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;\">&quot;The fact is though one of our members doesn&#39;t want DRS, they have a number of concerns regarding DRS. The major one being in their view the principle of a player reviewing an umpire&#39;s decision goes against the grain of what the spirit of cricket is all about,&rdquo; he said.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;\">Richardson further said that the ICC is testing the technology to make it more accurate and reliable. He was confident that through these processes, the BCCI will agree on the DRS<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n",
