Heres what CricBuzz says about him.
his prime.
Born in Victoria, Reiffel was a First-class legend with over 500 scalps to his name. Right from his domestic debut in 1987-88, he had been consistent which eventually landed him a national call up in 1992 across both formats. The initial years in Test cricket were a bit tough although the promise was always there in his bowling. In contrast, he took to ODI cricket swiftly and over the course of time, relished both formats equally well. He was part of two World Cup campaigns. While the 1996 edition saw Australia fall at the last hurdle in the final, they were victorious in 1999 to win their first title in 12 years. Reiffel announced his retirement after the glory and after a couple more years, quit
the sport altogether.
Reiffel's ability to cut the ball off the surface enabled him to adapt easily to different surfaces, particularly those of the sub-continent. He always prided himself in his batting lower down the order and constantly worked at it. While he often provided stiff resistance, it were during the last couple of years in his career that Reiffel managed more consistency, notching up a majority of his fifties during that period. After his stint as a player, he turned to umpiring and has been in the elite panel of the ICC as well. Quite similar to his playing days, he's been a no-nonsense person during his umpiring as well.
Heres what ESPNcricinfo says about him.
Paul Reiffel was a nagging right-arm seam bowler and a very capable lower order batsman. Throughout a career which saw him appear in many Tests and one-day internationals for his country, he was a player who distinguished himself with his ability to bowl an awkward line and length and to complement it with a capacity to cut the ball both ways off the pitch. His unstinting accuracy and control was also a key to his success. Reiffel experienced occasional problems with no-balling and was afflicted by a number of injuries that threatened to end his career at different times. But he remained an outstanding player and a highly valued member of Victorian and Australian teams for more than a decade. The laid-back Reiffel retired from international cricket after forming a part of Australia's victorious 1999 World Cup side, and from his state at the end of the 2001-02 season.
