Chanila Krishna Bhat Nandan (born 14 October 1963) is a cricket umpire and former cricketer from India. His playing career included three first-class matches for Karnataka, over a period from 1983 to 1988. He made his umpiring debut in 1999, and has since umpired in various Indian domestic competitions, including Ranji Trophy and Indian Premier League matches.
Playing career
Born in Delhi, before making his first-class debut, Nandan played representative matches for Karnataka schools and under-22 teams, and also appeared in inter-university matches for Bangalore University. A wicket-keeper, he made his Ranji Trophy debut in December 1983, playing the first match of the season against Hyderabad before being dropped. On debut, he played solely as a batsman, with future Indian national team player Sadanand Viswanath keeping wicket. Nandan's next first-class appearance came late in the 1984–85 season, in his team's Ranji semi-final against Delhi. Both of Karnataka's first-choice wicket-keepers, Sadanand Viswanath and Syed Kirmani, were unavailable for the match. Nandan recorded four dismissals (three catches and a stumping) in Delhi's only innings, with Karnataka eliminated on its first innings total. His third and final Ranji appearance came in December 1988, when he played against Kerala, making 20 runs in the second innings (his highest first-class score).
In January 2018, he was named as one of the seventeen on-field umpires for the 2018 Under-19 Cricket World Cup. He was eventually removed from the ICC International Panel for poor performance.
