The International Cricket Council (ICC) has successfully brokered a deal to resolve the long-standing impasse surrounding the Champions Trophy 2025.

Pakistan has agreed to a hybrid model, paving the way for a thrilling tournament.

According to the agreement, India’s matches will be played at a neutral venue, while the remaining games will be hosted in Pakistan.

In a reciprocal arrangement, ICC events hosted by India will also be played at neutral venues.

This breakthrough comes after intense negotiations and marks a significant victory for cricket diplomacy. Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) Chairman Mohsin Naqvi hailed the decision, stating that it was made with Pakistan’s best interests in mind.

The Champions Trophy 2025 is slated to take place in February 2025, and with this agreement in place, cricket enthusiasts worldwide can look forward to an electrifying tournament.
