The five-time Umpire of the Year Taufel, who is now the International Cricket Council's performance and training manager, is conducting a workshop for India's top 100 umpires at the National Cricket Academy in Bangalore.
The programme is aimed at enhancing the skills and knowledge of the umpires and mark out a path to the Elite panel. In an interview with TOI, Taufel, who retired from international duties in 2012, shared his thoughts on the need to improve the communication between on-field and third umpires, quality.
Excerpts:
What is the focus of the umpires' workshop?
It's part of the ongoing development programme the BCCI is conducting with its umpires. We're conducting a series of workshops for the best 100 umpires in India. What we're focusing on particularly is the third-umpire work, match management, effective communication, and exploring how they can improve.
You are keen on the umpires sharpening their communication skills...
In a noisy game that might have 30,000 people, we want to keep the communication between on-field and third umpires short and concise by using agreed terminology to avoid confusions. We're also working out on how to build better relationships with captains, coaches, administrators and umpires because umpiring is a team sport.
What are your impressions on Indian umpires in the ICC Elite panel?
What's really pleasing to see is that we've got a very good panel of international umpires now in S Ravi, C Shamsuddin, Anil Chaudhary and Vineet Kulkarni, who are all extremely high-quality. They are getting better all the time and their competition is good.
What are the challenges of umpiring in India?
Umpiring in India presents its own challenges. You've got the environment, hot conditions -humid ones in Chennai for example -turning pitches, not much seam and bounce. You've also got challenges outside the boundary -different food, the large distances you have to travel between matches.
