PCB Announces Match Officials Panel for 2025–26 Domestic Season

The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has announced the match officials’ panel for the 2025–26 cricket season, featuring both experienced and emerging umpires and referees from across the country.
According to the PCB, the International Panel includes match referee Ali Naqvi, along with umpires Asif Yaqoob, Faisal Afridi, Rashid Riaz, and Saleema Imtiaz — the latter being one of the notable female officials in Pakistan cricket.
The Elite Panel comprises 18 umpires and 10 match referees, while the Supplementary Panel has been divided into two groups: 14 umpires in Panel 1 and 24 in Panel 2. In addition, 10 referees have been listed in the Supplementary Referees Panel, and the Emerging Panel features 40 umpires from across the country.
The PCB emphasized that the inclusion of 13 women umpires, including Saleema Imtiaz, marks a significant step toward gender representation and development in officiating.
The board stated that the formation of these panels aims to enhance the overall standard and consistency of umpiring and match officiating in Pakistan.
