Umpiring elite to be named in February Wisden CricInfo staff - December 28, 2001
MELBOURNE (Reuters) For one-day internationals from April, the ICC will use one home umpire and one international umpire as opposed to the current practice of two home umpires. A five-man panel of referees, to be headed by Sri Lankan Ranjan Madugalle, will also be appointed to oversee games. Umpires and referees are to be appointed on two-year contracts. Speed said with an elite panel of umpires the ICC would be able to provide more assistance to umpires in a bid to reduce the number of poor decisions. "If an umpire is clearly out of form we will work with him," he said, "and we will work a lot harder with umpires than we have done previously."
