Just some time ago, ICC had informed this to Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) through an official e-mail. A lot of speculations and statements have started in the cricket world regarding this decision of BCCI. Reactions are also coming in from former cricketers. On the other hand, now former veteran cricketer of Pakistan cricket team Javed Miandad has given a big statement regarding this matter. Miandad says that without India, Pakistan cricket will not only survive but also prosper. Also, the 67-year-old former cricketer has termed the Indian government’s decision as a joke. Javed Miandad gave a big statement After India’s decision not to go to Pakistan and take part in the Champions Trophy 2025, Javed Miandad was quoted by India Today as saying – It is a joke that this is happening. Even if we don’t play India at all, Pakistan cricket will not only survive but also prosper as we have shown in the past. I would like to see how the ICC event makes money when there is no match between Pakistan and India. Champions Trophy schedule delayed after BCCI’s decision On the other hand, after BCCI did not go to Pakistan to participate in the Champions Trophy, the official schedule of the tournament has not been released yet by BCCI. Earlier, information regarding organizing the matches was to be given through a press conference on November 10, but this has not happened yet.

Former cricketer Javed Miandad has expressed grief over the condition of the Pakistan team. He believes that the constant change in the coaching staff is affecting the confidence of the players. Actually, after a good start in 2023, Pakistan cricket team faced many setbacks. The team failed to perform well first in the Asia Cup and then in the ODI World Cup. After this, many changes took place in Pakistan cricket, in which Babar Azam left the captaincy in all formats and in his place Shan Masood was made the captain in Test and Shaheen Afridi in T20. Additionally, former batsman Mohammad Hafeez was appointed Director of Cricket after the World Cup, while Wahab Riaz was made the head of the National Selection Committee. However, since the appointments of both, the Pakistan team has not won any match. People who have no knowledge of cricket… On this condition of Pakistan team, Javed Miandad said, I have not seen such administration of cricket anywhere in the world as we see in Pakistan. These situations are really sad. I don’t think anywhere in cricket appointments and changes are made so frequently and it only means that there is no continuity in our cricket structure. And more importantly, the confidence of the players is not increasing. He further said, our team has not performed well since last year. People who have no knowledge of cricket, sit and take such decisions which affect the entire structure of the country. read this also- England team is sweating on the field, Team India players will make life difficult from the first match.
