“Our stance is clear”: PCB chairman on hosting Champions Trophy 2025
Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) chairman Mohsin Naqvi has categorically expressed that board remains clear in its stance on hosting the Champions Trophy in Pakistan. Naqvi said that it’s not viable that Pakistan can continue travelling to India to play while India can not come to Pakistan. The Champions Trophy is scheduled to be played in Pakistan next year in February and March and Indian have already conveyed their decision to the ICC that their government hasn’t given them the permission to travel to Pakistan. Instead, India want "Hybrid Model".
"Our stance is very clear. I promise we'll do what is best for Pakistan cricket. I'm constantly in touch with the ICC chairman and my team is talking to them constantly. We're still clear in our stance that it's not possible that we continue playing cricket in India, and India don't play cricket here. Whatever will happen, will happen on the basis of equality. We've told the ICC very clearly, and what happens next we'll let you know,” Naqvi told reporters in Lahore.
India have not travelled to Pakistan since 2008 due to political conflicts between both nations. Both countries also don’t play bilateral series due to the same situation. Meanwhile, it still remains unclear whether Champions Trophy will be held in Pakistan or “Hybrid Model” will be adopted.
