Mumbai: The BCCI has given the names of four Indian umpires – Sudhir Asnani, S Ravi, Vineet Kulkarni and SS Shamshuddin – to the ICC for consideration for the 2012-13 international season. The decision was taken by the BCCI’s Umpires Committee to recommend Asnani and S Ravi - both of whom have officiated in international matches – and TV umpires Kulkarni and Shamshuddin to the international panel.
