Mahela Jayawardene: Waist-high full tosses should be checked

In the rules of the game, there is currently no provision for the TV umpire to check waist-high full tosses and Jayawardene feels that they should be brought into consideration for such calls in the future

Mumbai Indians head coach Mahela Jayawardene feels that TV umpires may have to look at checking waist-high full tosses in future in light of the controversial no-ball saga between Delhi Capitals and Rajasthan Royals at Wankhede last Friday.

In the rules of the game, there is currently no provision for the TV umpire to check waist-high full tosses and Jayawardene feels that they should be brought into consideration for such calls in the future. “It is something going forward that I think we need to look at. Is there an option for the third umpire to look at these things and inform the main umpires that it is a delivery that should be checked?” asked Jayawardene on the ICC Review show.
