In cricket, umpires call is a term used to describe a situation where the on-field umpires original decision should stand, even after a review has been taken. The Decision Review System (DRS) was introduced to international cricket in 2009, and the phrase "umpires call" quickly became part of the cricketing vernacular. The umpires call is not applicable for the pitching zone as the ball tracking technology can detect where the ball has pitched with utmost accuracy. Its either red or green. For the impact zone, if the technology cannot tell conclusively whether the ball is making first contact with the pads in line or not, then the on-field umpires call stays on. In simple words, the umpires call is the benefit of the doubt, which extends to the player or the team which has taken the review. A team retains the review on umpires call, and theres no limit on how many. The implementation of umpires call has been noted in other sports whereby similar issues have arisen in the case of highly-marginal decisions which are perceived to be unfairly decided by forensic and technical means.
