Indian Officials Refuse to Travel to Pakistan

Javagal Srinath and Nitin Menon have withdrawn from officiating in Pakistan during the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, citing personal reasons.

Menon declined travel, while Srinath requested leave after an extended schedule.

With India’s matches set in Dubai under the hybrid model, no Indian officials will feature in the tournament. 

The ICC confirmed a 12-member umpires panel, including Richard Illingworth and Ahsan Raza. Match referees include David Boon and Ranjan Madugalle. The ICC expressed confidence in the selected officials.
