Umpires in Indian domestic cricket are appointed by the BCCI through its panels, which include state, all-India and elite categories. Officials in these panels stand in matches across formats organised under the BCCI's domestic structure, including first-class, List A and Twenty20 fixtures.
Francis Gomes has officiated in matches recognised within Indian domestic cricket records. Such matches typically form part of competitions including the Ranji Trophy (first-class), the Vijay Hazare Trophy (List A) and the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy (Twenty20), among other tournaments organised by the BCCI and its affiliated state associations.
Domestic umpires play a central role in the conduct of Indian cricket, supporting the development of players and the integrity of competition at the level below international cricket. The pool of BCCI-listed umpires is also the primary source from which India contributes officials to the International Cricket Council's panels.
