LBWs
Viewers now expect Hawk-Eye’s verdict on lbw ‘shouts'. This gives commentators and viewers adequate time to discuss and digest the result before the next ball has be
en bowled.Hawk-Eye helps to resolve the following three issues:
Would the ball have hit the stumps?
Did the ball pitch in-line?
Did the ball hit the batsman in-line?
Wagon Wheels 
The singles, 2s, 3s, 4s and 6s that make up quick-fire 50s or vital centuries are represented by the different colours of the Wagon Wheel, which shows the areas of the field that the batsman has been targeting. Hawk-Eye now has the ability to display wagon wheels over photo realistic or virtual realistic backgrounds, giving broadcasters even more scope to taylor the Hawk-Eye 'look' towards the style of their production.
Pitch Maps
Simple yet effective; Pitch Maps make a useful pause for reflection after the frenetic exchanges of the opening overs and highlight a bowler’s consistency or expensiveness, line and length.
Hawk-Eye can now display comparative Pitch Maps in a split screen format, as shown in the example to the right.

Beehives 
Beehives show where the ball has passed the batsman.As with the Pitch Map, the coloured balls correspond to the number of runs that the batsman has achieved from that delivery. Hawk-Eye Beehives can now be shown against a photo realistic or virtual realistic world, as with the Wagon Wheel feature.

Ball Speeds 
Hawk-Eye now has the ability to supply ball speeds as reliably as a radar gun, as demonstrated during the ICC World Twenty20 in South Africa.

since hawkeye has been introduced to cricket which i try 2 watch as much as i can of, it has improved the game so much because they havent gone completely crazy with it. for example, they couldve easily used hawkeye for lbw shouts as well as run outs for the umpires use which wouldve taken the debates out of the game, so hawkeye has helped hugely in terms of the audience enjoying the sport.
