The Asia Cup Group A match between India and Nepal at the Pallekele International Cricket Stadium on Monday will mark former Indian cricketer Javagal Srinath officiating in his 250th men’s ODI match as a member of the ICC Elite Panel of Match Referees.

A former India fast bowler who finished with 236 wickets in 67 Test matches and 315 wickets in 229 ODIs, Srinath was a member of the team that reached the final of the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup in 2003. He became an ICC Match Referee three years later.
