Bruce Nicholas James Oxenford (born 5 March 1960) is an Australian cricket umpire and a former cricketer. He has been an ICC international umpire since 2008, when he first umpired a One-Day International game, and stood in his first Test match in 2010. On 26 September 2012, he was named to the ICC Elite Umpire Panel, the highest umpiring body in the game of cricket, replacing his fellow Australian Simon Taufel, who retired from the panel to take up a newly created ICC supervisory and training position.[1]
Playing career
Oxenford played in eight first-class matches for Queensland during the 1991/92 and 1992/93 seasons.[2]
Umpiring career
Oxenford began umpiring in 1998, and made his first-class umpiring debut in 2001. He was appointed to the 12-man National Umpire Panel in 2003 and in 2007–08 was named as Cricket Australia's ICC International third umpire.[2][3][4]
His first Test match was in December 2010 between Sri Lanka and West Indies in Kandy, Sri Lanka.[2][5] He was selected as one of the twenty umpires to stand in matches during the 2015 Cricket World Cup.[6]
