Tredwell helps Gale to triumphant beginning

James Tredwell also showed the England selectors he is ready to play a part for the senior side with three wickets in the Lions' comfortable Twenty20 defeat of United Arab Emirates A in Sharjah.

Tredwell will provide back-up to first-choice spinner Graeme Swann on the senior tour of Dubai and Bangladesh and collected 3-22 as the Lions cantered to a 52-run victory in their own tour opener.

The tourists had earlier put on 184-5, with Hampshire's former Yorkshire batsman Michael Lumb making 42, Ian Bell an unbeaten 37 and new Yorkshire captain Gale 17.

South Africa-born wicket-keeper Craig Kieswetter, tipped for senior honours, also impressed with 31 off 24 balls at the top of the innings.

UAE A were unable to get close to the target, ending their allocation well short on 132-7.

Tredwell's haul was backed up by Peter Trego's 2-14, and Yorkshire leg-spinner Adil Rashid also took 1-24 off four overs.

England and Wales Cricket Board chairman Giles Clarke believes the controversial umpire decision review system needs to be refined.

The practice of using television feeds to query decisions of

on-field umpires has been criticised for its application since it was adopted at the end of last year.

Clarke, who saw England's series in South Africa throw up a number of issues, believes there are two crucial points which need to be addressed.

He said: "There are important questions about the effective use of technology. There's a fundamental question for the sport's governing body, which is 'are we actually encouraging a lack of respect for umpires by having players questioning decisions?'

"What we also want to see is all technology used at the same time, otherwise it's taking the mickey. If there's no 'hot spot' what is the point? What's the point in using HawkEye but not having the sound turned up?

"We need to use all technology, then we have a question of who should be doing the referring, that's equally important."
