Hawk-Eye founder says former England skipper’s commentary is a bit ‘UNEDUCATED’ after DRS controversy during India-England Test series

But Hawk-Eye creator Hawkins dismissed Vaughan’s remarks, calling his commentary “uneducated“. He wants the ex-English skipper to prepare more for his role as a journalist so that he can produce factually correct reports.

The commentary, I think, is a little bit uneducated. It is unfortunate for Vaughan, because, obviously, a fantastic player, really enjoyed watching him play, and a great commentator, very entertaining. But I think it’s a responsibility to the game, in terms of journalism. Hawkins said on The Analytics Podcast

Perhaps a little bit more preparation in terms of his role as a journalist may help him explain what’s happening to the huge fan base of cricket so that what he writes is factually correct. In the same way, as Hawk-Eye has an obligation to be factually correct, perhaps journalists do too. He added

Hawkins developed the Hawk-Eye system in the United Kingdom and the technology was first used in 2000 in cricket matches.
