ICC Chief Executive Geoff Allardice to step down from role

The International Cricket Council (ICC) Chief Executive Officer (CEO) will step down from his role, the governing body announced on Tuesday in a statement.

“I’d like to thank the ICC Chair, the board of directors and entire cricket community for their support and collaboration over the past 13 years. I believe this is the right time for me to step down and pursue new challenges. I am confident that cricket has exciting times ahead, and I wish the ICC and the global cricket community every success in the future,” he said in the statement.

Allardice joined the ICC from Cricket Australia in 2012 as General Manager of Cricket. He was appointed as the ICC’s CEO in November 2021. The board is yet to announce his successor.

The ICC Chairman Jay Shah said, “On behalf of the ICC Board, I want to sincerely thank Geoff for his leadership and commitment during his tenure as Chief Executive. His efforts have played a key role in advancing cricket globally.”
