Champions Trophy: 12 Umpires, Three Match Referees Named As Tournament Officials
The International Cricket Council: The International Cricket Council (ICC) on Wednesday revealed a list of 12 umpires and three match referees as match officials for the 2025 ICC Men’s Champions Trophy, happening from February 19 to March 9 in Pakistan and the United Arab Emirates.
The tournament will take place in four venues: Karachi, Lahore, and Rawalpindi in Pakistan, and Dubai in the UAE. In a statement, the ICC said a distinguished panel of 12 umpires will officiate the eight-team event, with six of them returning after officiating in the 2017 edition.
That includes Richard Kettleborough, who stood in the final of the previous Champions Trophy in the United Kingdom in 2017. Kettleborough, a veteran of 108 Men’s ODIs, will be joined by fellow umpires Chris Gaffaney, Kumar Dharmasena, Richard Illingworth, Paul Reiffel, and Rod Tucker, who also officiated in the 2017 tournament won by Pakistan.
