Australia’s Rod Tucker will be the third umpire while Pakistan’s Aleem Dar will be the fourth official, the ICC said in a statement.

Sri Lanka’s Ranjan Madugalle will be the match referee for the summit clash. All the officials appointed for the final were also in charge of the second semifinal between England and Australia, which the hosts won by eight wickets Thursday.
