Tap to know what it means for him

Menon, the only Indian in the International Cricket Council's elite list of umpires, will be an on-ground umpire during the third and fourth test between Australia and England.

Indian umpire Nitin Menon will finally realise his long standing 'dream' in July this year when he will feature on the umpire panel for the iconic Ashes series scheduled to take place in England.&nbsp;
Menon, the only Indian in the International Cricket Council's elite list of umpires, will be an on-ground umpire during the third and fourth test between Australia and England. And for the fifth and final test, the 39-year-old will be the TV umpire.&nbsp;
The third Test will be played in Leeds from July 6-10, while the fourth Test will be in Manchester (July 19-23). Menon will be the TV umpire in the fifth and final Test at the Oval in London from July 27-31.
Menon, who was inducted into the elite panel back in 2020, could have officiated in the Ashes earlier if it wasn't for Covid-19 with ICC forced to use local umpires due to the prevailing restrictions at the time.

"My dream series will be Ashes without a doubt. That is the only series I watch on TV. The atmosphere, the way the series is fought, is something I want be involved in. Whether in England or Australia I would love to be part of it," Menon had told PTI after being elevated into the elite panel.
Menon has so far officiated in 18 Tests, 42 ODIs and 40 T20s. He is currently busy with the IPL. Ashes 2023 is scheduled to start from June 16 and conclude in July and will be played across 5 venues on English soil.&nbsp;&nbsp; with PTI inputs

In a major blow for the Indian Premier League, 2 leading umpires - Nitin&nbsp;Menon and Australia's&nbsp;Paul Reiffel&nbsp;have pulled out of the competition. According to PTI, Menon&nbsp;who is from Indore&nbsp;has rushed home to attend to his wife and mother who tested positive for Covid-19. Menon&nbsp;is the only Indian in ICC's Elite Panel of Umpires and received a lot of praise for his work during recent India vs England series. Paul Reiffel&nbsp;also returned home as the Australian government has imposed strict&nbsp;travel restrictions. The 55-year-old former Aussie international follows Andrew Tye, Adam Zampa&nbsp;and Kane Richardson who also pulled out of the tournament.&nbsp;

Punjab appeal against 'short run' call which cost them 2 points

It's unfair as&nbsp;this one run could even cost us a play off berth: Kings XI Punjab CEO

Kings XI Punjab have lodged an official complaint&nbsp;with the match referee following a controversial 'short run' call made by on-field umpire Nitin Menon&nbsp;in their game against the Delhi Capitals. Punjab CEO Satish Menon told&nbsp;PTI&nbsp;that while they understand that a human error can happen but there was no room for human errors like these in a world class tournament like the IPL. He added it's unfair as this could cost them a playoff berth. Kings XI's&nbsp;co-owner Preity Zinta had earlier lashed out at the call and tweeted to question the point of technology if it cannot be used. She even asked BCCI&nbsp;to&nbsp;introduce new rules.&nbsp;Menon, who&nbsp;became the youngest ever to be inducted in ICC&rsquo;s Elite Panel of Umpires,&nbsp;called a &lsquo;run short&rsquo; when Chris Jordan took a couple of runs off Rabada in the 19th over.&nbsp; But TV replays clearly showed that&nbsp;Jordan legally completed the first run and the bat was inside the crease. If not for the blooper, Kings XI Punjab would have won the game without it going into a super over.

Umpiring blunder costs Punjab the win, ignites a debate

Umpire Nitin&nbsp;Menon&nbsp;wrongly called a &lsquo;run short&rsquo; which forced the game to go into a super over.

While the 2nd game of the IPL gave us a thrilling super over finish but it also highlighted an umpiring blunder. India&rsquo;s Nitin Menon, who&nbsp;became the youngest ever to be inducted in ICC&rsquo;s Elite Panel of Umpires,&nbsp;called a &lsquo;run short&rsquo; when Chris Jordan took a couple of runs off Rabada in the 19th over.&nbsp; But TV replays clearly showed that&nbsp;Jordan legally completed the first run and the bat was inside the crease. If not for the blooper, Kings XI Punjab would have won the game without it going into a super over.&nbsp;ICC&nbsp;had recently decided that the TV umpires&nbsp;will take a call on the front-foot no ball and this blunder by Menon has&nbsp;ignited a twitter debate whether the same should&nbsp;happen in such situations as well. Punjab were robbed of a win and in such a closely-fought league,&nbsp;2 points can cost them a spot in the playoffs.
