[PICTURES] Are Pakistan the worst cricket nation when it comes to taking DRS Reviews?

I understand that Mitchell Marsh is a lucky guy but this was a poor review from Shan.

There needs to be some form of deterrent implemented to discourage stupid appeals. I'd like to suggest a boot up the backside in the dressing room applied in front of the rest of the team for those involved in poor appeals, but that is unrealistic. Maybe exclusions from the team night out at the restaurants during their tours? That would certainly make Azam Khan think twice.
 
Pakistan stinks because theirs no leadership and batters are morons.

Batsmen just review even though they know its plumb out, like bro why? Leave a review for other incoming batters. You already know its out if the umpire raises the finger that quickly and you know for a fact you don't got any glove on it.

As for bowlers. Bowlers will always shout, keeper and captain need to be more strong-willed. The Rauf review was a clear not out.

Babar and Rizwan probably have it agreed in their Central Contracts that they will review everything unless it’s a bowled or clearly caught
 
They should review bowled and caught out as well, to check for no balls. Waste more reviews.

Whole system is non-function , It was stupidity from Harris to ask for review and then why Azam Khan , as the keeper did not stop the non-sense , he himself was jumping for appeal while moving way on left side following the ball. Then Babar as captain should make decision , not reflexly asking for review on bowler's demand.
 
Pakistan does take useless reviews but Balgadesh's review where it was clearly hitting the bat first will still remain the best one.

TBH, you cannot blame Captain every time. It was keeper's and Bowler's job to guide him and if they are convinced enough, captain ahs to take it.
 
Another day, another DRS abuse by a senior Pak cricketer

this time Rizwan, on his LBW decision

Rabada's ball kept low, hits Rizwan low. Everyone knew that its gonna hit the stumps

A team review wasted...
 
Can you believe that Pakistan missed this one... Took 2 useless reviews that were pitching outsidethe leg stump, and when the real opportunity came, they messed up again.

Wicketkeeper plays a key role in DRS as he has the best view and unlike the bowler who is biased, a keeper can take the right call.

It's easy to say this now but tbh it didn't look out to the naked eye. For one thing, he is coming around the wicket and De Zorzi is standing back in his crease, so immediately because of Asif Afridi's height and high release-point you are thinking that it's probably too high and missing the stumps.

Another added caveat is that Asif Afridi bowls very accurately and doesn't really spin the ball much. So the one person who should have best known that the ball is probably going straight after pitching is Asif Afridi, and for some reason he didn't even appeal.

Not this one

Rizwan is blinded by the body of the batter

I didn't see it happening live but the pic suggests Rizwan wouldn't be able to see the direction of the ball at the point of impact
 
Today it was Shan Masood

Even the Commentators had to say that it was a needless review. His LBW couldn't have been plumber...

Ball was pitching outside leg, it is always bowlers job as he is the best guy to judge it but putting blame on keeper for obvious reasons...
