After this, the venue of the second Test match which was proposed to be played at Karachi’s National Stadium from August 30 has now been changed.

Let us tell you that this match to be held in Karachi has now been rescheduled in Rawalpindi. At the same time, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has said that this decision has been taken due to the work going on in the stadium, and the fans will be refunded for the booked tickets very soon.

PCB said in an official statement- Additionally, the dust emanating from the construction work can also affect the health and well-being of players, officials, broadcasters and media. This is why this decision has been taken.

Karachi is one of the premier venues for Champions Trophy 2025

It is worth noting that this time the hosting rights of the Champions Trophy are with Pakistan. Karachi’s National Stadium is an important stadium for organizing this global multi-nation event. Because Karachi is one of the three stadiums to be used during the entire tournament.

Due to the Champions Trophy, development work is being done in the stadium so that apart from the cricket teams playing here, the fans can also have a better experience. For this reason, the second test match between Pakistan and Bangladesh to be held in Karachi has been shifted from here.

However, once the development work is done in the stadium, Pakistan may be seen playing some white ball cricket matches with the England cricket team. It is worth noting that before the Champions Trophy, England will be touring Pakistan for a limited over series.
