This is the first time since the 1996 ODI World Cup that Pakistan has had the opportunity to host an ICC event.
The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has submitted a proposal to the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) regarding the Champions Trophy 2025. According to Cricbuzz, PCB has said that the Indian team can return to India after playing every match and that the Pakistani board would help them in this matter.
The report states that PCB recently wrote a letter to the BCCI. It has been said that if the Indian team does not want to stay in Pakistan due to security reasons and wants to return to Chandigarh or New Delhi after every match, then the board will help them. A PCB official confirmed this proposal. The reason for this offer is the one week gap between India’s last 2 matches.
According to reports, during Indian Foreign Minister S Jaishankar’s recent visit to Pakistan, there were discussions about the Indian team leaving for Pakistan. The issue was raised several times during Jaishankar’s talks with Pakistani Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar. The PCB’s hopes were raised after this visit, although no official statement has been released on the matter yet.
