Sudhir Gidwani, Trevor Warburton and Hugh Tyrwhitt-Drake elevated to Qualified Member status

Sudhir Gidwani, Trevor Warburton and Hugh Tyrwhitt-Drake have been elevated to Qualified Member status by the Association of Cricket Umpires & Scorers in the UK, bringing the total of fully qualified umpires to nine.

Unfortunately, this will be reduced by one later in the month with Alan Swift returning to England.
