International umpire Bruce Oxenford is set to retire from International cricket across all the three formats of the game after having a great career spanning over 15 years as an umpire.
He also officiated at the last three ICC Men’s Cricket World Cups and the last three ICC Men’s T20 World Cups. He was also part of the officiating team during the ICC Women’s T20 World Cups both in 2012 and 2014.
Prior taking the duties as an Umpire, Oxenford represented Queensland in eight first-class matches as a leg-spin bowler and lower-order batsman.
Though he is set to retire, the Queensland native will continue to oversee domestic fixtures.
On his retirement he said: “I look back with pride at my international career as an umpire. It is still hard to believe that I officiated in close to 200 international matches. Such a long career was not really something that I had hoped for before commencing on this journey.”
