Man, watching cricket again reminds me how bad video review is for North American sports. Cricket just has it done perfect:
1) Close calls don't get called on the field - they go directly to the video umpire
2) Only 15 seconds to determine if you want to challenge - prevents all the dumb delays where guys are checking with the video room (I'm looking at you MLB)
3) Reviews are quick, usually less than 1 minute
4) You can literally see the review as it's happening - no "hidden" angles or other BS like that
North America - step up your video review game!
