The match officials for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025's two semi-finals have been confirmed. India and Australia will clash in the first semi-final on March 4 in Dubai, while South Africa and New Zealand will go at it in the second semi-final in Lahore on March 5.

The match officials for India's first semi-final against Australia in Dubai will be New Zealander Chris Gaffaney and England's Richard Illingworth. Michael Gough will serve as the third umpire, and Andy Pycroft will be the match referee.

Illingworth, who officiated India's Group A encounter against New Zealand, will remain in Dubai for this match. Gaffaney was originally set to umpire Australia's Group B match against South Africa, but weather conditions forced him to swap roles.

Sri Lanka's Kumar Dharmasena and Australia's Paul Reiffel will serve as on-field umpires for the second semi-final between South Africa and New Zealand in Lahore. Joel Wilson will act as the third umpire, while Ranjan Madugalle will be the match referee.

Dharmasena was previously engaged in New Zealand's Group A triumph over Bangladesh, while Reiffel oversaw India's victory against Pakistan.
