A match is also to be played between the teams of India and Pakistan in the Champions Trophy 2025. A big news has come out regarding when and where this match will be played.
Big update on India-Pakistan match
The Pakistan Cricket Board has set the date of India-Pakistan match for Champions Trophy 2025 as 1 March 2025. According to a PTI report, a senior member of the ICC board has given the update that this match between the Indian and Pakistani teams will be played in Lahore. But the BCCI has not yet given its consent to the tentative schedule.
The tournament will be played between 8 teams
The Champions Trophy 2025 will be played from February 19 to March 9 and March 10 will be the reserve day. According to the report, India has been placed in Group A along with Pakistan, Bangladesh and New Zealand. Group B includes Australia, South Africa, England and Afghanistan.
All matches of team india in lahore
An ICC board member told PTI that the PCB has submitted a draft of the 15-match ICC Champions Trophy. There will be seven matches in Lahore, three in Karachi and five in Rawalpindi. But due to security and logistical reasons, all India's matches have been kept in Lahore. The opening match will be held in Karachi, the two semi-finals will be held in Karachi and Rawalpindi, the final will be held in Lahore.
Indian government will take the final decision
The last tournament hosted by Pakistan was the Asia Cup in 2023. But this tournament was played in a hybrid model due to Team India. Team India played its matches in Sri Lanka and the final was also played here. In such a situation, whether the Indian team will tour Pakistan for the Champions Trophy or not, this decision will be taken by the Indian government. Let us tell you, the ICC cannot force any board on its behalf to go against its government policy.
