Former England captain Geoffrey Boycott feels it is time that all countries supported the Umpire Decision Review System (UDRS) for its use in Tests and did not hesitate in outvoting the powerful Indian cricket board, which has been opposing the review system. The controversial issue is likely to be settled through voting during the International Cricket Council (ICC) Annual Conference in Hong Kong later this month.

"If a majority of the ICC countries believe that the UDRS is a good improvement for international cricket, they should vote for it and say, 'Sorry India, you are in a minority'. It's supposed to be a democracy around the world, where the majority takes precedence," Boycott was quoted as saying by ESPNcricinfo yesterday.
