World Cup Most Matches As An Umpire: The umpire is the official person that controls the game, he is the last authority and his decision is the final, which can be reversed only in some conditions. It is the most responsible job, a single wrong decision can hamper the decision of the match and can jeopardize the career of the umpire. Correct decisions are directly proportional to the longevity of Umpire careers. There have been so many umpires that served Cricket for almost 2 decades, but let’s stick to the World Cup.
