DUBAI: The International Cricket Council’s Elite Panel of Umpires will not have an Indian representation after Sundaram Ravi got the axe with Michael Gough of England and Joel Wilson of the West Indies being the new entrants for the 2019-20 season.
Ravi, whose below par performance both on-field and as a TV umpire dring various assignments came for sharp criticism has been predictably dropped and non-representation was a reflection of poor quality of Indian umpires.
The 53-year-old Ravi has officiated in 33 Tests including Ashes, 48 ODIs and 18 T20 Internationals. He has stood at multiple World Cups and World T20s. (AGENCIES)
