Roland Black of Ireland has been appointed to the umpiring panel on Thursday for the ICC Men's T20 Cricket World Cup qualifier, which is set to kick off in UAE next month.
Black while acknowledging his appointment said: "I feel privileged and fortunate to have been given the opportunity to officiate at the Qualifiers."
"While I leave for the UAE on October 7, there is plenty of preparation ahead of the tournament, including workshops, venue inspections, various meetings, and practice matches,"
"It's a great experience to be part of a tournament like this. I am hoping that what I learn from the experience I can bring back and share with my Irish colleagues to help improve officiating in Ireland," Black added.
The ICC Men's T20 Cricket World Cup qualifier officially starts from 14 October 2019 with Scotland locking horns with the United Arab Emirates in the first matchup.
