Good Bye David Shepherd forever

We should remember one of the best umpires David Shepherd with grief and respect. This 68-year-old umpire is no more in this world. He has died after suffering from cancer for long time. His fans bid him farewell with tears and mourn. I feel sad when I think that I can not see him in the cricket ground. He devoted 22 years in cricket game. David Shepherd made his international debut in 1983 and took retirement in 2005. He last appeared in Test match between West Indies and Pakistan. After taking retirement from international cricket he became involved with his city’s club.

This legendary umpire had been appeared in 172 ODIs and 92 Tests. Umpiring may be a boring work to you but he showed that how it can be a funny and interesting job with his different body language and movement. I would like to give him special thanks and respect for his great devotion to cricket.
