Umpire Cowie calls time
BBC Online, undated
New Zealand umpire Doug Cowie has announced his retirement from all forms of cricket after 20 years at first-class and Test levels. Cowie, 58, officiated in 22 Tests, 71 one-day internationals and more than 100 first-class games. His final international was the one-day match between New Zealand and Australia in Auckland in February. "Recent changes have placed greater demands on umpires and it's time to refocus my priorities," said Cowie.
