As you all know, umpire is the most crucial part of any cricket match. He has a huge responsibility on his shoulder, as he is a person who has the authority to make judgements on the field. There are two on-field umpires, who apply the laws, make all necessary decisions, and relay the decisions to the scorers and there is a third umpire who looks into the TV replays.
Now lets talk of Umpires in Indian Premier League (IPL). In the five seasons of the Indian Premiere League (IPL) played so far, 36 umpires have officiated at least one IPL match.
Only four men have served as IPL umpires in both the first season and the latest season, these are – Billy Doctrove, Asad Rauf, Billy Bowden and Aleem Dar; while 14 umpires have served in only one season.
