I like your thinking!
I’m not sure what the answer is, but something needs to be done.
Take this game for example, the players would now have zero faith that the umpires have got a decision right, so it makes asking for a review that much more tempting. England now have no reviews, and i can;t help but feel the terrible umpiring played some part in that.

The other point i want to make is that, i think the DRS has shown how much umpires actually get wrong. It is too hard to track the ball, where its landing / pitching / hitting etc especially at 140km/hr. I just don’t humans can do it accurately enough.
Also, with LBW, you need consistency… when one player gets out on Umpires call, and another gets saved by umpires call… it does my head in.

technology can bring consistency. Maybe bring in unlimited reviews, but punish teams if they dont get 90 overs in.

It’s time to overhaul the DRS
