The ICC (International Cricket Council) is ramping up preparations for the upcoming Champions Trophy 2025 scheduled to be held in Pakistan. As part of these efforts, Dave Musker, the ICC Head of Security, visited the National Cricket Academy (NCA) in Lahore on Tuesday for a crucial meeting.

Musker met with Salman Naseer, the Chief Operating Officer of the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), along with other PCB officials. The agenda focused on security arrangements for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025.

The eight-team Champions Trophy will be held in Pakistan in February/March 2025. This marks the return of the tournament after a hiatus following the 2017 edition.

Musker's visit underscores the ICC's commitment to ensuring a safe and secure environment for both players and fans during the Champions Trophy.

The meeting likely involved discussions on security infrastructure, risk assessments, and collaboration between the ICC and PCB security teams.

This visit signifies a positive step towards a successful Champions Trophy 2025 in Pakistan.

Further details regarding specific security measures are likely to be announced in the coming months.

“Cricket fans in Pakistan can look forward to an exciting tournament with world-class cricket and top-notch security arrangements,” confided a PCB official.
