I have had the privelege of seeing HDB, including his final test.

Overall I would say Shephard and Venkat are the best I have seen over a lengthy period of time.

Currently, Aleem Dar.

Currently I think it's Taufel. Aleem Dar is v good usually, but the Katich LBW was a smeller.

The best current umpire IMHO is Taufel, he makes some unbelievably good calls. Dar is usually excellent, too, the Katich decision notwithstanding.

Every one can have a decline. Bucknor is the best current example of that.
