Brian Leslie Aldridge Шаблон:Post-nominals (30 June 1940 – 9 December 2021) was a New Zealand cricket umpire.[1]

Aldridge was one of the umpires in the 1992 Cricket World Cup final between England and Pakistan.[2] At the time of his death, he was still the only New Zealander to have officiated in a World Cup final.[3] He stood in 26 Test matches and 45 ODI games between 1986 and 1995.[4] As well as 20 Tests in New Zealand, he umpired three Tests in Sri Lanka, two in Pakistan and one in Zimbabwe. In all, he umpired 84 first-class matches between 1979 and 1995.[5]

In 1997, Aldridge became New Zealand Cricket's first-ever full-time umpire manager, a post he held until his retirement in 2008.[3] He was awarded the Queen's Service Medal in the 2012 New Year Honours, for services to cricket administration.[6] Outside cricket, he worked as a builder.[3]

Aldridge died in Christchurch on 9 December 2021, at the age of 81.[7]
