UMPIRES for QF
Asoka Da Silva has got the chop and is in jeopardy of losing his elite umpire status. He is the only elite umpire not be involved in the QF even as a 3rd or 4th umpire. Surprisingly, Asad Rauf is only a 4th umpire.
There are 5 umpires from the international list in Richard Kettleborough, Bruce Oxenford, Khumar Dharmasena, Nigel Llong & Tarapore included. PAKISTAN vs WEST INDIES Umps: BOWDEN & DAVIS 3rd: HARPER 4TH: OXENFORD INDIA vs AUSTRALIA Umps: ERASMUS & GOULD 3rd: KETTLEBORUGH 4th: RAUF SOUTH AFRICA vs NEW ZEALAND Umps: DAR & TUCKER 3rd: DHARMASENA 4th: LLONG SRI LANKA vs ENGLAND Umps: DOCTROVE & TAUFEL 3rd: HILL 4th: TARAPORE |

I think Kettleborough, Dharmasena and Oxenford are definitely in for promotions. |

I had a horrible dream that Saheba was umpiring the NZ-SA game.
Thank ****! Good to see the great umpires spread out amongst the matches. Would have hated to see Dar and Taufel umpiring the marquee QF, and the other matches getting the leftovers. With Bowden and Harper in the first match probably the worse group of the lot. But Davis has been pretty good in the WC. Last edited by KiWiNiNjA; 21-03-2011 at 02:38 AM. |

Honestly Asoka dont even belong there. I consider myself to be a much better one than ASHOCKER de Silva

Erasmus and Gould are two good umpires generally.
Good luck to Rod Tucker too, on getting a QF. He seems to be progressing up the ladder pretty quickly.

Oh no we have Bowden (teri ungal) and Harper as 3rd umpire. Let's see which side gets the benefit from their mistakes (hopefully with DRS that won't happen).

Davis has been really good. Hadn't noticed him at all, which is usually a good sign in umps.
Tony Hill can consider himself a bit unlucky not to get a standing gig too, I reckon; especially with Bowden getting one. &, I am biased, but love Gunner. Combines personality (without being a try-hard willful eccentric), good blokeism and solid decision making.
