TON-UP Watling Leaves New Zealand ON Sports FRIDAY, OCTOBER 11, 2013 Hotspot dumped for return Ashes series — report SYDNEY: The controversial Hotspot technology will not be available to umpires to review decisions in the upcom- ing Ashes series between Australia and England, its inven- tor Warren Brennan told local media. Hotspot, which uses infrared cameras to determine whether the ball has struck the batsman, bat or pad, was the subject of much contro- versy in the Ashes in England series earlier this year, which the hosts won 3-0. With a second series in Australia getting underway in Brisbane on Nov. 21, Brennan told the Sydney Morning Herald that the technology had been dumped by host broadcaster Channel Nine for cost reasons. “It’s their decision and that’s what’s been communicat- ed to us. As far as I’m concerned, it is final,” Brennan, a for- mer employee of Channel Nine, told the paper. “We’re just moving on with things. Channel Nine have got a new deal with Cricket Australia which I know has cost them a lot more money. I gather there had to be some restructuring of costs.” Channel Nine said it was not in a position to comment on the matter at this stage. “The Nine Network are still finalising arrangements with our various stakeholders for the coming season,” a spokeswoman said via e-mail. “Comprehensive details of our upcoming Ashes cover- age will be available shortly.” Although by no means at the centre of every controversial umpiring decision during the first series in July and August, there were several occa- sions when Hotspot failed to pick up edges.
