So what's the reaction to hearing umpires live during reviews?

DRS was good.
Unfortunately it still couldn't prevent a bad decision reg Root which looked out LIVE but was saved due to umpire's call.
But overall, DRS is good. Better for teams.
Nothing related to the technology, but system is certainly flawed. Batsman needs to judge and think a lot.
Cook was not out. Ball was missing leg by long way. You didn't need even hawkeye to tell that. I was surprised that umpire gave that out as ball hit him on leg stump line and from that angle it was going down
It was an obvious review scenario. Cook asked Haseeb who probably told him that it looked straight and Cook decided not to review.
Jadeja being bowler may have given that impression. His bowls are mostly straight and don't turn much and he doesn't bowl wide of crease either.
So England missed the trick today.
On the other hand India reviewed Root's not out decision and it was marginal call. So, even if it was unsuccessful, it can be said that it was good call from captain Kohli.

Sachin Tendulkar says introduction of DRS in India-England series is a 'positive step'
http://m.firstpost.com/sports/sachi...ngland-series-is-a-positive-step-3105516.html
Terming the introduction of DRS in a a bilateral series in India a "positive step", cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar on Monday said the BCCI can adopt it on permanent basis if they are convinced with the modified review system and called for the technology to be standardised across the world.
The Indian Cricket Board last month ended its long-standing opposition to the Decision Review System, and agreed to its usage on a trial basis during the ongoing home Test series against England.
Asked whether the BCCI should adopt it on a permanent basis, Tendulkar told PTI, "If BCCI have studied well and they are convinced with this (modifications in DRS), then why not, I think it's a positive step."
He added, "The whole thing was about having consistency everywhere in the world... because I noticed that one change -snickometer in one part of the world and the other part of the world was Hotspot. "There was no uniformity. When you play Test cricket, there are certain things (which) need to be standardised everywhere in the world and when DRS is actually now as good as part of, norm of cricket, literary into that, then it should be standardised everywhere in the world."
"So whichever match you are playing, one should not be asking okay what will be happening, is snekometer available or Hotspot available (or not), it should be standardised."
The 43-year-old Tendulkar said that DRS was all about getting the decisions right.
"See after (Cheteshwar) Pujara's decision (in the Rajkot Test), few questions were raised and people spoke about whether the decision should (have been given)... even if batsman doesn't ask and umpire has given out and in the reply it showed that you know it had pitched down the leg, I feel it won't be bad idea for the third umpire to intervene there, because eventually DRS is all about getting decisions right..."
"And consistently right (as far as possible). So you got to find ways to get decisions right and they should be working as a team - all three umpires, on-field umpires and the third umpire. The whole system was introduced for consistency in taking decisions and if we can get that, then we would have achieved our goal."
Having opposed the system for long, the Board's stance softened after Test captain Virat Kohli and coach Anil Kumble expressed their openness to experiment with the technology.

Virat Kohli gives positive nod to Decision Review System
Indian skipper Virat Kohli on Friday gave a nod of approval to the Decision Review System, after the national team used it for the first time in a home series following years of resistance to the technology.
Kohli described the DRS as “pretty fair” after the first two Tests against England in Rajkot and Visakhapatnam.
India had for years resisted using the DRS over doubts about its reliability following a frustrating trial run in 2008, despite the nine other Test teams adopting the technology years ago.
But the International Cricket Council recently said it had made upgrades to the technology, prompting India to give it another trial run.
“Ya, am pretty happy with it… I think it is pretty fair for the game,” Kohli told reporters on the eve of the third Test in Mohali.
But he added that it was too early to pass final judgement on the technology.
“I think we need to have a bit more patience with that particular aspect… We will analyse over a period of 12 months as to how we have used it,” he said.
India’s World Cup-winning captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni and batting great Sachin Tendulkar have for years voiced scepticism over the technology.
The DRS comprises three main elements — a ball-tracking technology known as ‘Hawkeye’; a high-audio microphone known as ‘snicko’, which detects the sound of a ball grazing the bat or gloves; and ‘hotspot’ thermal imaging which can also determine where a ball makes contact.
