Australia captain Tim Paine, on Friday, slammed Decision Review System (DRS) after he was adjudged quite controversially during the second Test against New Zealand.
Paine said DRS just left him "disappointed and angry". On the way to his maiden Test century, Paine was trapped leg before wicket by Neil Wagner for 79 after New Zealand reviewed the umpire's original not out decision.
Later while talking to ABC, Paine said, "I thought from the length that it pitched, and the bloke bowling around the wicket, it's pretty difficult to hit you in line, and hit the stumps."
The Aussie skipper questioned the accuracy of the technology evoked lately when New Zealand batsman Ross Taylor survived a review after being given out at first.
"And then you get one late tonight which, the guy's stuck on the crease, he's hit really full and it's going over, so it's disappointing and it makes me angry," said Paine.
"I've got a few doubts, no doubt about that,
"I won't go into it too far because I'll get in trouble but I'm just seeing time and time again, what I see to the naked eye, or watching it on television in real time, and then what it comes up is sometimes a little bit off the mark," he added.
