Pakistan’s big demand regarding Champions Trophy 2025, asked for proof from BCCI, said- if the Indian government does not approve…

The Champions Trophy 2025 is scheduled to be held from February to March next year, but its schedule and venue have not been decided yet. The ICC has given hosting to Pakistan, but if the Indian team does not go to Pakistan to play, then the tournament can be held on a hybrid model. The BCCI has not said anything clearly on this, but the PCB has asked the BCCI for written evidence of the Indian government not sending the team to Pakistan due to security reasons.

Let us tell you that earlier the PCB had allegedly threatened that if the Indian team refuses to go to Pakistan for the Champions Trophy, it will boycott the 2026 T20I World Cup to be jointly organized by India and Sri Lanka. The PCB is doing all this exercise because it wants to organize the Champions Trophy 2025 completely in its territory. The matter is also related to revenue.

PCB asked for evidence from BCCI

Regarding Champions Trophy 2025, a PCB source has said that if the Indian government has not given permission, it has to be given in writing and the BCCI should give that letter to the ICC. He has said that we are constantly saying that the BCCI should inform the ICC in writing about the team’s visit to Pakistan for the tournament five to six months in advance. The BCCI has always said that the decision to play in Pakistan will be that of the government.

ICC’s annual conference will be held in Colombo on 19 July

Let us tell you that the ICC’s annual conference will be held in Colombo on July 19 this month, in which the hybrid model will not be discussed. According to sources, it is certain that the Indian team will not play its matches in Pakistan, but in the schedule of the Champions Trophy submitted by the PCB to the ICC, India’s matches are to be held in Lahore. The tournament will start in Karachi on February 19 and the final will be held in Lahore on March 9.

The Indian cricket team has not visited Pakistan since 2008. It is expected that the situation regarding the Champions Trophy will become clear in the ICC meeting to be held in Sri Lanka. It is possible that the Indian team will play its matches in the UAE, but it has not been officially announced.
