And in cricket, they are already using technology similar to Questec for umpires to track balls. They plan to expand the application this year:

BBC Sport - Cricket - ICC backs umpire review system roll-out in all Tests

American sports are trailing behind in terms utilizing technology for referees. FIFA is way further behind. FIFA has already tried ball-tracking technology before but rejected it, preferring human errors.
