A lifelong fan of the game, Koerzten played league cricket while working as a clerk on the South African railways, but soon turned his hand to umpiring in 1981. He first stood in a Test at the age of 43, at Port Elizabeth in 1992-93, the first series in which TV replays were used to judge run-out decisions. Appointed as a full-time ICC umpire in 1997 – and a member of the elite panel in 2002 – he leaves little to chance by putting in regular sessions in the gym, as well as long hours in front of the TV studying the techniques – and previous dismissals – of the batsmen at his mercy.
