A staunch opposer of the Hawk-eye technology, the BCCI could be persuaded to allow its usage in the Decision Review System by batting legend Sachin Tendulkar who has been convinced about its utility by the innovation's inventor. Hawk-Eye inventor Paul Hawkins met Tendulkar before the
start of India's ongoing Test series against England and claims to have removed all doubt from the batting maestro's mind about the system. "The problem has been that the BCCI have made decisions without knowing the facts.

It was clear Tendulkar had been told the Hawk-Eye system was manual, requiring an operator. He wasn't aware it is automatic and beyond corruption by humans," Hawkins was quoted as saying by 'The Daily Mail'. "Once we had set the record straight with him, he left saying he would tell the BCCI and recommend Hawk-Eye was used.
