Most of the people who regularly follow Cricket will surely be familiar with Umpire Billy Bowden. He is from New Zealand. The New Zealand umpire is famous for his unusual and unique style of umpiring.
The former elite panel umpire was just about to raise his crooked figure when Knights wicketkeeper Tim Seifert appealed for a caught behind the decision on Stags foreign recruit Mahela Jayawardene. Though the players concerned was not too bothered about it, but the commentary panel totally enjoyed Bowden’s change of mind at the last second.
