The 2010 World Cup was a catalyst to introduce the technology after England were wrongly denied a goal, when the ball clearly crossed the line, in their Round 16 tie against Germany, reports Xinhua.

Dirk Broichhausen, managing director of the official provider of the system Goal-control, ensured the technology, according to tests, is 100 percent accurate.

Goal Control chairman Bjoern Lindner explained that there are high speed cameras trained on each goal post to determine if an attempt on goal has crossed the line. The system will send a "GOAL" message to the referee's watch if the ball is in.

Broichhausen also said the data is transmitted via encrypted offline system and the new technology couldn't be hacked.

GoalControl was tested last year at the Confederations Cup where it accurately reported every goal.

When asked about how the bowlers and fielders responded while defending a low total, Williamson said: “Someone like MS Dhoni, he can finish matches when he is allowed to play his shots. He is the best in the world. That catch was big for us.” Williamson was happy with the manner his bowlers responded on a tricky surface and also gave an insight to how some adjustments led to the Indian skipper playing 37 dot balls. “On this kind of a surface (Kotla), scrapping was important.
