FAIR PLAY

You and your colleague are the sole judges of fair and unfair play but the captains are responsible for the players conducting themselves within the Spirit of Cricket as well as within the Laws

If either of you considers an action to be unfair, you must intervene without appeal

Discrimination and Vilification
    You and your colleague must be alert and prepared to take appropriate action in the event that players discriminate against, vilify or harass opponents in any way

    Discrimination, vilification or harassment on the grounds of race, religion, sex or disability is intolerable and unacceptable and you must discourage it in the strongest manner

    In many countries, legislation is in place to protect citizens against all forms of discrimination

    As umpires you have a duty to be aware that all citizens have certain rights and that these rights should not be infringed
