The Champions Trophy 2025 scheduled to be hosted by Pakistan may be shifted to a different country. It could be owing to India’s likely unwillingness to travel to the neighbouring country. As per a report, a veteran administrator opines that ICC cannot force BCCI to travel to Pakistan and that other alternatives can be explored.
Champions Trophy 2025 to move out of Pakistan?
“Every member can raise concerns for discussion at Board meetings and then it would go to a vote. But if the government (of a member nation) expressly say that they can’t play there, ICC would need to look for an alternative,” a veteran administrator, who has attended multiple board meetings, told PTI on conditions of anonymity.
“….because ICC Board’s position remains that it doesn’t expect its members to go against any policy/instructions issued by its own government,” he added.
