After acing the T20 World Cup, the next match that the Rohit-led cricket team eyes is the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. The T20 World Cup matches concluded after four weeks with India winning all the matches. 2025, brings new challenges and hope for yet another trophy. According to the reports, the men in blue are unlikely to visit Pakistan for the ICC Champions Trophy and may request the International Cricket Council for a venue change.
India To Not Play In Pakistan For ICC Champions Trophy
The Indian squad has decided not to go to Pakistan in 2025 for the ICC Champions Trophy. Rather, they will ask the International Cricket Council to think about holding the games in Dubai or Sri Lanka. Pakistan will host the ICC Champions Trophy in February and March of 2025. Because of the tense relationship between the two countries, India has not participated in any cricket competitions held in Pakistan since the 2008 Asia Cup.
BCCI stated that “India will not go to Pakistan for the Champions Trophy 2025. We will recommend to the ICC that the matches be held in Dubai or Sri Lanka.” Vice-President of the BCCI Rajeev Shukla had declared earlier in May that the Indian squad will only visit Pakistan for the competition with central government approval. Shukla clarified saying, “For the Champions Trophy, we will abide by the decision of the Government of India. Our team travels only with the permission of the Indian government, so we will act according to their decision.” Will ICC consider India’s request? Well, time is the answer to all questions.
Ex-MLA and spokesperson Krishna Hegde praised the decision of BCCI. He stated that the Shiv Sena applauded and welcomed the BCCI’s action of urging the ICC to change the venue of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. “Shiv Sena welcomes the move of BCCI. Cricket and Terrorism can’t go together in Pakistan. These were also the thoughts of our leader Hindu Hriday Samrat Balasaheb Thackeray ji,” Hegde stated.
