Dubai: The International Cricket Council is expected to confirm on Thursday that the umpire decision review system (DRS) will be used in next year's World Cup.
But DRS, used in some Tests, will not be trialled in one-day internationals before the ICC's flagship tournament begins next February in south Asia.
The ICC may pay for some broadcasting costs to ensure all 49 World Cup games get DRS technology as standard.
The system allows for players to "appeal" against on-field decisions.
The ICC will formally announce its plans at the end of its annual conference in Singapore.
However, it has already signalled its intention to adopt DRS across all Tests and the World Cup following recommendations from two of its internal committees.
The review system was introduced as a trial in June 2008. Teams are permitted two opportunities per innings to contest an on-field decision, losing a challenge for an unsuccessful review.
One of the most contentious issues has been the reluctance of some home cricket boards to pay for the necessary infrastructure supplied by host broadcasters, while some series have not had access to certain technologies.
In such instances, DRS has been shelved.
But DRS has been further dogged by the apparent failure of the third umpire, who reviews the video evidence, to come up with the same verdict as those suggested by television pundits.
