Australian batter Alyssa Healy said that presence of DRS can help get rid of umpiring howlers like the one that brought about her skipper Meg Lanning's downfall.

"Definitely, I wouldn't say no to DRS if it is available. I would love to see it in every Test match. It makes it fair and even and to take out the howler would be a nice thing."

The Indian pacers' consistency surprised her and that they had been impressive.

"Their (Indian pacers) consistency has surprised me and has been impressive. It's great to see so many young Indian players getting an opportunity. We prepared for Shikha Pandey but she didn't even get a look in, which is a great sign for Indian cricket," the Aussie opener said.

"It was fun. Walking off isn't as fun, but the challenge was fun. Jhulan has gotten the better of me quite a few times. She's a world class bowler and has been throughout her career. She gets that extra bit of bounce. Challenging especially after 140 overs in the field," she added.
