Speaking to PCB digital, Ahsan Raza said: “You want to excel in whatever you do. I am about to become the first umpire to stand in 50 T20Is, which is an honour for me and my country. I am very excited as I am completing this milestone in my hometown and at the home of Pakistan cricket. T20 format might come across as a short one to the viewers, but it has its own challenges for the umpires. There’s a lot of pressure while officiating T20 matches as anything can happen anytime. You have to be more active in this format because of the innovative strokes like reverse-sweep and paddle-sweep.” The Pakistani umpires continue to excel, a testimony of which is the fact that three of the five umpires with most T20Is are from Pakistan. Aleem Dar, the celebrated umpire who is part of Elite Panel of ICC Umpires, is behind Ahsan with 46 T20Is, while Shozab Raza, who is in International Panel of ICC Umpires, has officiated 36 matches and is fifth on the list.
