Cricket: Swann backs DRS

LONDON: England spinner Graeme Swann hopes the confusion over the use of the Decision Review System (DRS) will be short-lived.

Swann joked that the lack of a DRS system will hamper him in the series against India.  “Yeah, I’m stuffed,” he said. “In my opinion it’s been a great addition and it works, but the powers that be have decided we’re only using it for caught behind decisions.  I’m sure in a year or two it’ll be used across the board for all decisions.”
