An Indian civil engineer has complained about bias within cricket's governing body after his rival method to the Duckworth-Lewis (D/L) system for rain-affected games was rejected.
V. Jayadevan, who invented the "VJD system" as a different way to calculate revised targets in truncated one-day and Twenty20 games, said the International Cricket Council (ICC) had failed to give his version a fair hearing.
The ICC on Friday announced it had considered Jayadevan's method in detail but unanimously agreed to stick to the Duckworth-Lewis system as it had no obvious flaws and that VJD was not an improvement.
