Swaminathan dead

HYDERABAD, FEB. 20. S.A. Swaminathan, a senior State panel umpire of the HCA and Secretary of the Association of Cricket Umpires of Hyderabad (ACUH), passed away here on Friday night.

In a message all the members of the HCA conveyed their heartfelt condolences to the bereaved family. Swaminathan was 68 and is survived by two sons and a daughter.

He was an official scorer in many Ranji Trophy matches and also a One-Day International. He was on duty even two days before he breathed his last which showed his keenness and love for the game.
