London:
Hair, who is suing his employers, the ICC, for racial discrimination, will be joined in the witness box by a host of other illustrious names from the world of cricket, including Malcolm Speed, Dave Richardson, David Morgan and Billy Doctrove.
The 55-year-old umpire, whose 15-year-long career has been marred by last year's Oval Test controversy, hasn't officiated in a Test or One-Day International since he accused Pakistan of ball-tampering last August.
The proceedings, in fact, could last for as long as two weeks in the Central Office of London Tribunals.
