Is it normal to have both umpires from Zimbabwe in a T20I where Zimbabwe is involved? Couple of LBW appeal turn-downs were really shocking. In a close game one bad call can tip the balance very easily. I wonder if ICC has a mechanism to evaluate the performance of the umpires after the game. Umpires are human and will make mistakes. However, the really bad ones should be weeded out and others should be informed of their mistakes so they can improve.

BTW, is there any female umpire in the ICC panel (for the men's game)? I guess not and wonder why not.
