England may have bowed out of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2015 but they had plenty of representation among the list of match officials announced on Monday for this week’s quarter-finals. Umpires Richard Illingworth, a member of the England side that lost to Pakistan in the 1992 World Cup, Ian Gould (England’s wicketkeeper at the 1983 World Cup), Richard Kettleborough and Nigel Llong will all have roles in the last eight.
