ICC may release the schedule of 2025 Champions Trophy this week.

If Hindustan Times report regarding the new development of the tournament is to be believed, the ICC is finalizing discussions with the participating member countries and the host country regarding the tournament schedule. However, the decision by the PCB to include the Pakistan-occupied Kashmir region in the probable schedule of the Champions Trophy tour has sparked controversy and has raised objections from BCCI to ICC. Our stand is very clear: Mohsin Naqvi Meanwhile, Pakistan Cricket Board Chief Mohsin Naqvi said in a conversation with journalists – We will achieve the target and will achieve the Champions Trophy tournament in Pakistan. All the teams (except India) that have qualified for the Champions Trophy are ready to come to Pakistan and no one has any problem. I would say even today that if India has any concerns, they should talk to us. Naqvi further said- We will solve any kind of problem of them (BCCI). I believe there is no reason why the Indian team cannot come to Pakistan for the Champions Trophy. You wait and see all the teams will come. Our stand is very clear, we have already told this. We will stick to our stand. ICC has to announce the schedule of the tournament. We are waiting for the schedule to be announced, so that we can start preparing accordingly. As soon as the program is announced, we will start our preparations as soon as possible.

Champions Trophy 2025: ICC seeks written response from BCCI on refusal to travel to Pakistan, read big news
BCCI has refused to play in Pakistan for the Champions Trophy. India not to travel to Pakistan for Champions Trophy Recently, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has refused to play in Pakistan for the upcoming ICC Champions Trophy 2025 tournament. Due to the ongoing bad political relations between the two countries, the board has decided to take this step. However, now news is coming that the International Cricket Council (ICC), the biggest cricket body, has sought a written explanation from BCCI regarding not traveling to Pakistan in the upcoming tournament. So if the official source is to be believed, then the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) had asked for a copy of the official reply of the Indian Board regarding the refusal to travel to its neighboring country. However, BCCI has so far only verbally informed the ICC about its decision. Till now BCCI has not submitted any written reply to ICC. The reason behind PCB seeking a copy of the response received from BCCI is to facilitate it in seeking sufficient evidence from India to justify its call of not playing the tournament if it is held in Pakistan. According to the tournament rules, the BCCI will have to give solid reasons for refusing to play in Pakistan, which will then be reviewed by the ICC for a final decision. South Africa kept on standby Also, for your information, let us tell you that after BCCI refused to play in Pakistan, the hybrid model proposed by ICC has been rejected by the Pakistan Cricket Board. According to this model, India can play its matches in a neutral venue like UAE or Sri Lanka. But if PCB does not accept the hybrid model then ICC can shift the tournament to South Africa. South Africa has currently been kept on standby. It will be worth watching that where and when will the tournament, which is returning after almost 9 years, be played?

So now Jay Shah, who has been holding the responsibility in BCCI for five years, is going to take over the post of ICC Chairman from December 1. However, now news is coming that the International Cricket Council (ICC) has decided to extend the current tenure of its new chairman. Earlier the tenure of the Chairman was of two years, which has now been reduced to three years. Earlier any chairman could complete three terms of two years each. But now that the tenure period has increased, any chairman can be elected only for two consecutive terms. But Shah will now remain on this post for two consecutive terms, whose duration will be 3 years each. After this major change in the rules, Jay Shah is going to be seen working on the post of ICC Chairman for six consecutive years. Also, according to the new rules, elected presidents cannot be re-elected in future. Jay Shah will replace the current chairman Greg Barclay in ICC. It is noteworthy that Barkley was selected for the first time in 2020. Since then he has completed 2 terms. There was also a change in the rules of women’s ranking In addition to the change in the tenure of the chairman’s post, the ICC Chief Executives Committee (CEC) has announced changes to the women’s ranking rules. After the new rule, any team will have to play at least 8 matches in ODI and T20 formats every year to get into the ICC rankings. Earlier there was a rule to play 6 matches.

Will get ready first. Besides, PCB has also invited delegations from member countries to come to Pakistan and assess the preparations made for the tournament. Also, let us tell you that the situation is not yet clear whether India will go to Pakistan to participate in this multinational tournament or not? The situation regarding this has not been clarified yet. So some time ago, BCCI Secretary Jai Shah had said that the team will go to Pakistan only if the Board gets permission from the Government of India. ICC may consider hybrid model On the other hand, India can consider holding the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 on a hybrid model like the Asia Cup 2023, if India does not tour Pakistan. If this happens then the Indian cricket team can play its Champions Trophy in UAE. Apart from UAE, names of Sri Lanka and South Africa can also be seen. So if we talk about the tournament, its 9th season is ready to be played. It was last organized by the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) in 2017.

But I am also convinced that the corrupt are constantly finding their way into the game, especially in the poorly run lower-level franchise T20 leagues. The danger to the game is that as long as there is money to be made, the corrupt will not be able to escape and they will find loopholes in the system to get involved.” He also spoke about how pleased he is with the growing number of players willing to report corruption, which helps the global body maintain the integrity of the sport. Marshall further said- I am glad to see the growing number of players trusting us to come and report such cases to us. But there was a time when players kept it a secret, which led to no action, but now they have confidence. Players have seen corrupt people being busted, which shows who the corrupt are, what their methods are. So, everyone is better protected and equipped to keep corruption away from the game. Marshall has been on this post for 7 years Let us tell you that Alex Marshall has been leading the ICC’s Anti Corruption Unit for the last 7 years.
