Reports: PCB concludes legal consultation over India’s refusal to travel for Champions Trophy 2025, to write to ICC

The Champions Trophy 2025 is looming on the horizon, the marquee tournament is all set to be held in Pakistan, and as has always been the case with tournaments in Pakistan, the travel of the Indian team has been in question. Recent reports have suggested that the BCCI has refused to travel to Pakistan for the Champions Trophy 2025.

With the BCCI’s refusal to travel to Pakistan, the PCB (Pakistan Cricket Board) has made the decision to write to the ICC regarding it after completing their legal consultations.

It is worth noting that the federal government has provided the PCB with policy guidelines about India, which will be used to seek more clarity on the situation. Interestingly, it was the ICC that informed the PCB about India’s situation and refusal to travel to Pakistan.

There have been reports that the government officials who had given the instruction to the PCB should be involving other boards in this matter. It is worth noting that Pakistan has always managed to travel to India whenever the opportunity is presented, and the Indian team has no moral or legal grounds to not make the trip to Pakistan.

A source in the know recently came forward and talked about how Pakistan travelled to India for the ODI World Cup 2023 despite the political tensions between the two countries and that India should do the same.

“We traveled to India in 2023 despite the hostility and volatile environment, it was under the understanding that if we went to India for the World Cup, India would come to Pakistan for the Champions Trophy 2025. Nothing was opposed then but now these excuses don’t hold ground,” a PCB official was quoted as saying by Wion.

“We also sent our team to India in 2016, and had done the hybrid format of the Asia Cup to accommodate India,” added the official.
