David Shepherd says good bye to the Antipodes
David Shepherd, not the chap who captained England and died recently, has umpired his last test in the Southern Hemisphere. He turns 65 at the end of the year, the retirement age for umpires. He talks about a variety of topics to Alex Brown, about technology, chucking, match-fixing etc.
I cant find any mention of the retirement age on the ICC's site though. Oh, and if Shep is made an umpire for the Super Series, then this farewell would have been premature.
