Hot Spot Technology



I think this system was introduced to Cricket by Australian Channel 9, where First I saw this on The Ashes last December.
Well..... it shows the point where the ball hit the batsman or point where the ball touches. Heat being produced due to friction.. So these INFRA RED imaging systems catch small "heat" they find, to show it on ash colored,negative video. In the television replay (or in the decision review process ), which usually shows a white colored glittering spot where contact friction from the ball has elevated the local temperature.




But as spectators we have to understand and respect on-field umpire's decision making. He doesn't use this tech things for his decision.

Congrats Djokovic !!


I watched the final of aus. open for the last hour. Yep it was a total dominant performance by Djokovic. Andy murray was little messy. The energetic backhands from the serbian totally outplayed him(murray)today. The Scot has now lost three Grand Slam finals without winning a set, after he was comprehensively outplayed(have to say that) by the Serbian world number three. Wish you good luck Andy Murray. Sure you win something this year, I'm not a big tennis fan. Only watching GS, when it comes to quarters !! Winner's address was amazing to the crowd. He dedicated his championship to his COUNTRY, his Team and his gf.
