Monday 10th October 2011
St. John’s, Antigua – Three former Test players will officiate as Match Referees in the Regional Super50. WICB Head Match Referee Adrian Griffith will take charge in nine of the 15 matches while the other six matches will be shared by the Guyanese duo of Colin Stuart and Reon King.
 
All three were part of the WICB Match Referees and Umpires Workshop in Jamaica in 2010 prior to the last edition of the 50 Over tournament.
 
The 39 year old Griffith is a former Barbados and West Indies opening batsman who played in 14 Tests and nine One Day Internationals. Griffith has been an ICC Regional Match Referee for the past two years.

Seasoned regional umpires Goaland Greaves and Peter Nero lead the list of six umpires who will stand in the middle along with four others who will do stand by duties.
 
The other four standing umpires are Joel Wilson, Gregory Brathwaite, Nigel Duguid and Lennox Abraham. The four standby umpires are Colin Alfred, Shannon Crawford, Nandkumar Shivsankar and Gyanandad Sukhdeo.
