Ashoka Desilva back in ICC elite panel despite failing umpiring test recently

ICC has recalled Ashoka Desilva of Srilanka back to the elite panel. Interestingly Desilva failed in a written umpiring test in Srilanka. Does ICC regularly test umpires' knowledge of the rules? We don't have any dearth of examples where umpires seem not to know obvious rules of the game, which is very embarrassing. When the news of Desilva's failure came in, I thought Desilva's career with ICC was over. But surprisingly, he is back again.

De Silva? He was one of the worst umpires in the world. I can't believe that they'd let him back, especially if he can't even pass the written test.

naaah worst two umpires are rudi koertzen (however you spell it) and steve bucknor they always screw up the match.
