List of Indian Premier League umpires

In cricket, an umpire is a person who has the authority to make judgements on the field.[1] There are two on-field umpires, who apply the laws, make all necessary decisions, and relay the decisions to the scorers.[1]

West Indies' Billy Doctrove has officiated in 44 IPL matches.

The Indian Premier League (IPL) is a professional league for Twenty20 cricket in India,[2] which has been held annually since its first season in 2008.[3] In the eleven seasons of the league, 54 umpires have officiated at least one IPL match. Of these, Sundaram Ravi has officiated the most matches, serving as an umpire 97 times,[4] while Subroto Das has officiated the fewest, serving in one match of the 2013 season.[4] The first match of the IPL, played between the Royal Challengers Bangalore and Kolkata Knight Riders, was umpired by Asad Rauf and Rudi Koertzen.[5] 29 of the umpires are of Indian nationality, seven are Australian, five are South African, four are from New Zealand, three umpires are from England, two from each of Pakistan and Sri Lanka and one umpire from each of West Indies and Zimbabwe.[4] 13 umpires have served in only one season.[4]

As of the 2013 season, an on-field umpire receives a ₹1.75 lakh (US$2,500) salary for officiating a match.[6] The umpires are sponsored by McDowell's No.1, whose branding is displayed on their uniforms.[7] Kingfisher Airlines were the umpires sponsor for the first five seasons, and they paid ₹106 crore (US$15 million) for the sponsorship.[8] The recipient team of the Fair Play Award is also decided by the number of points given by the umpires in the league.[9] The umpires are also assessed by the umpires' performance and training manager; Taufel was in-charge of that post during the 2013 season.[6]

The list is initially organised by the number of matches as an umpire, and if the numbers are tied, the list is sorted by last name. This list is correct as of the end of the 2018 IPL season, and does not cover the games played by IPL teams in other tournaments or tours, such as the Champions League Twenty20, the British Asian Cup or the 2008 Kolkata Knight Riders tour of Australia.
