BCCI, the Indian Cricket Board, is planning to introduce a software in
the system of video recording of domestic matches which will help them in assessing
the performance of Indian umpires on a regular basis.
The BCCI's umpires committee met here today and was given a demonstration by two
computer experts, who have developed softwares.
"The software will enable us to assess the performance
of the umpires in various matches in tournaments like the Ranji Trophy and Duleep
Trophy so that we can then grade these umpires later," said BCCI's joint
secretary M P Pandove.
"But the members were not fully satisfied with the programme
presented to us and wanted some modifications done before they come back to
us after a week's time," Pandove said.
The BCCI has introduced the system of video recording of domestic
matches since last season.
The meeting today was attended by BCCI vice president
Lalit Modi, who heads the committee, secretary Niranjan Shah, Director
of umpires - S Venkataraghavan, Pandove and CAO Ratnakar Shetty.
