Even off-spinner Lyon looked surprised while celebrating the wicket.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size:14px;\"><span style=\"font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\">Without the DRS, the umpires are not allowed to review anything except a catch and a run out, with the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) strongly opposing its use and questioning its efficiency in giving full-proof verdicts.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size:14px;\"><span style=\"font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\">The stance has backfired several times for the Indian team in the ongoing series, but it certainly endorsed the BCCI&#39;s reservations about DRS Friday.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size:14px;\"><span style=\"font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\">India were bowled out for 475 in the first innings in reply to 572 for seven declared. Australia were 251 for six at stumps on the fourth day.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n",
