The International Cricket Council (ICC) said on Tuesday that TV umpire communications during decision-making will be available to broadcasters to air it for the TV viewers during the knockout stages of the World Cup.

The ICC held a successful trial in this regard during the One-Day International (ODI) series between Australia and South Africa in November 2014 and umpire communications will now be available to broadcasters to air for the final seven matches of the ongoing 2015 World Cup.

The umpire communications can be aired during umpire referrals, consultations and DRS player reviews.

The first of the quarterfinals will take place at the Sydney Cricket Ground between South Africa and Sri Lanka here on Wednesday.
