He was appointed for the role in November 2021, having previously served eight months as acting CEO. Explaining the reason behind the decision, Allardice noted that he now wants to \u2018pursue new challenges\u2019 and wished ICC well for the future.  <!-- \/8323530\/ITv_Desktop_VDO_1X1 -->\n  <\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt has been a privilege to serve as the Chief Executive Officer of the International Cricket Council and I am incredibly proud of the results we have achieved, from enhancing the global reach of cricket to the commercial foundation put in place for ICC Members,\u201d Allardice said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019d 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,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the official communication is reported to be different than the reality. As per reports, the governing council wasn\u2019t impressed with Allardice\u2019s performance, especially his role in the T20 World Cup 2024 and Champions Trophy 2025 fiasco. Notably, the board wasn\u2019t happy with the ticket sales in the USA during the T20 World Cup 2024. This year, Pakistan is not yet completely ready to host the Champions Trophy, which isn\u2019t something the ICC is happy with.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, ICC chairman Jay Shah thanked Allardice for his leadership and commitment during his tenure and wished him well for the future.    <\/p>\n<p>\u201cOn 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. We are truly grateful for his service and wish him all the very best in his future endeavours,\u201d Shah commented.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async>\nfunction loadFacebookScript(){\n!function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s){if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?\nn.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;\nn.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\nt.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window,\ndocument,'script','https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\nfbq('init', '529056027274737');\nfbq('track', 'PageView');\n}\nwindow.addEventListener('load', (event) => {\n\tsetTimeout(function(){\n        loadFacebookScript();\n\t}, 5000);\n});\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.indiatvnews.com\/sports\/cricket\/icc-ceo-geoff-allardice-resigns-before-champions-trophy-2025-2025-01-28-973538\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Image Source : GETTY Geoff Allardice The International Cricket Council (ICC) CEO Geoff Allardice resigned from his position days before the Champions Trophy 2025.
