Paul Keating and Ian Chappell are right: "Always bet on self-interest because you know it's a goer." That is why top order batsmen will continue to burn reviews; a point Dino Scungio appears to have overlooked with his convoluted review scheme:
What they should do is give each team a set number of reviews at the start of a Test series, say a total of six reviews each over three Tests. If a team uses one in the first innings of the first Test and two in the second innings – and they are unsuccessful – they would have three reviews left for the final two Tests
Mind you, it did seem as if it was a bit of a pisstake, and if it was not a pisstake, then The Sunday Age must be desperate for copy.
