Gollum Posted June 1, 2015 Posted June 1, 2015 The ridicule Ravi is getting from English cricket fans on twitter is disgusting. He has been quite good this series. Worst of all are the sarcastic comments by that douche bag Lawrence Booth.
Gollum Posted June 1, 2015 Posted June 1, 2015 Some of these English folk have the same colonial master's mindset as 200 years back. Hope BCCI/Team India cut them to size in the future. Ravi shouldn't mind. His officiating amidst hostility from Anderson,Broad,Commentators,English cricket fans has been nothing short of exceptional.

sensible-indian Posted June 1, 2015 Posted June 1, 2015 Pakistan has produced the most biased umpires ever...IIRC' date=' Miandad was given out LBW just once in home tests over a long period of 40-50 odd Tests...[b']He is a 30 avg player IMO but this help from home umpires pushed his avg up to 50 odd. This. Miandad's avg is an abomination. Guy averages 65 in Pak and 30 odd overseas. Guys, he averages 45 away. http://stats.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/player/40879.html?class=1;home_or_away=2;template=results;type=batting And averages 46 outside Asia. http://stats.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/player/40879.html?class=1;continent=3;continent=4;continent=5;filter=advanced;home_or_away=2;template=results;type=batting

Average in NZ is splendid considering NZ was among the top 3 sides back then, Not to mention the good numbers in England as well. Of course he struggled against Windies but who didn't?

You are welcome bro. In fact, in 1980s, his stats get even better. Averages 49.75 away from home. http://stats.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/player/40879.html?class=1;home_or_away=2;spanmax1=31+Dec+1989;spanmin1=01+Jan+1980;spanval1=span;template=results;type=batting And averages 51.50 outside Asia. http://stats.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/player/40879.html?class=1;continent=3;continent=4;continent=5;filter=advanced;home_or_away=2;orderby=default;spanmax1=31+Dec+1989;spanmin1=01+Jan+1980;spanval1=span;template=results;type=batting A few months back, I came across this by chance when I was checking stats of batsmen from the 80s era.

Kalia_Test Posted June 4, 2015 Posted June 4, 2015 S Ravi is now ( from July 1st to be exact )an Elite Umpire :yay: http://www.rediff.com/cricket/report/sundaram-ravi-promoted-to-elite-panel-of-icc-umpires/20150604.htm Chris Gaffaney and Sundaram Ravi were promoted from the Emirates International Panel of ICC Umpires to the Elite Panel. They will replace Billy Bowden and the retiring Steve Davis. According to a statement from the ICC, the Elite Panel of ICC Umpires for 2015-2016 is: Aleem Dar, Kumar Dharmasena, Marais Erasmus, Chris Gaffaney, Ian Gould, Richard Illingworth, Richard Kettleborough, Nigel Llong, Sundaram Ravi, Paul Reiffel, Rod Tucker and Bruce Oxenford. The appointments, effective July 1, were made following an annual review and selection process, the statement added. Gaffaney, who officiated in his first first-class match in 2005, made his international umpiring debut in Toronto in September 2010 in an ODI between Canada and Ireland, and has to date umpired in two Tests, 41 ODIs and 15 T20Is. Ravi has umpired in six Tests, 24 ODIs and 12 T20Is, since making his international debut in Visakhapatnam in December 2011 in an ODI between India and the West Indies. Both the officials also umpired in the ICC Cricket World Cup 2015 earlier this year in Australia and New Zealand. ICC General Manager – Cricket, Geoff Allardice, congratulated Gaffaney and Ravi on their elevation. “Their promotion is a testament to their hard work, as well as good decision-making and man-management skills over a period of time on the international panel. The ICC Umpire Selectors are confident that these two umpires will acquit themselves well at the top level, and that their selection will encourage umpires from all countries to aspire to elite panel selection if they are prepared to demonstrate the required ability, commitment and teamwork.†“I have always enjoyed the company of those umpires already on the elite panel and now I have the chance to work with them all on a more regular basis. I am really looking forward to the challenges ahead and aim to maintain a high standard of umpiring.†The Emirates Elite Panel of ICC Umpires was selected by the ICC Umpires Selection Panel comprising Chairman Geoff Allardice, ICC’s General Manager – Cricket, ICC Chief Match Referee Ranjan Madugalle, ex-England player and coach and umpire David Lloyd and Venkataraghavan.
Kalia_Test Posted June 4, 2015 Posted June 4, 2015 Billy Bowden relegated . We will miss some fun :((
mishra Posted June 4, 2015 Posted June 4, 2015 :agree: Venkat was good. Hope Ravi follows the footsteps
Gollum Posted June 4, 2015 Posted June 4, 2015 :agree: Venkat was the best. Hope Ravi follows the footsteps Corrected I haven't seen Dickie Bird but amongst the umpires I have seen officiating Venkat is the best, even better than Taufel.
yoda Posted June 4, 2015 Posted June 4, 2015 Good to see at least one India Ump in the Elite list. We seriously need to improve the quality of the Umps though. Most of them look out of their league.
