Recently, Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) secretary Jay Shah has been elected ICC chairman. Shah’s appointment has left the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) wondering about the future of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025.

It is worth noting that this time the hosting rights of the Champions Trophy are with Pakistan. However, it is not yet confirmed whether India will tour Pakistan for this multi-nation tournament or not? Also, looking at the current political relations between the two countries, it seems that India will hardly go to Pakistan.

If this happens, then once again the Champions Trophy can be held in a hybrid format like the Asia Cup. It is worth noting that at that time the hosting rights were with Pakistan, but India played all its matches including the final in Sri Lanka.

On the other hand, now after Jay Shah became the ICC chairman, a big statement has come from former Pakistani captain and legendary batsman Younis Khan. Younis believes that Shah will maintain the spirit of sportsmanship and will help India tour Pakistan for the Champions Trophy.

Younis Khan gave a big statement

Let us tell you that after Jay Shah became the ICC chairman recently, Younis Khan, quoting Cricket Pakistan, said- Jay Shah becoming the ICC chief should lead to the rise of cricket. Shah needs to show sportsmanship, because with the good initiative of the ICC chief, India can come to Pakistan to play cricket, in the same way Pakistan can also tour India.

Well, now it remains to be seen whether India will tour Pakistan for the Champions Trophy or not? However, looking at the current scenario, it seems impossible.
