EXPECTEDLY, the International Cricket Council on Thursday announced that India will play their 2025 Champions Trophy matches at a neutral venue.
Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) was given the hosting rights of the tournament in 2021 but its Indian counterpart, BCCI, refused to travel to the country citing security concerns. According to the ICC, a similar arrangement will be adopted for all the ICC meets till 2027. A source in the know of things told this daily that India are set to play their CT matches in Dubai. "We have been verbally intimated by the ICC. Even as we are awaiting an official confirmation in this regard, Dubai is set to host India matches including knockouts if the Men in Blue make it to that stage," added the source.
