“The hotel is far away, yet the players will reach the stadium in 6 minutes”, Pakistan’s amazing arrangements for the Champions Trophy
Former Pakistan cricketer Salman Butt is confident that the upcoming ICC Champions Trophy 2025 will be a huge success as it will be hosted in Pakistan. Champions Trophy (Image Credit- Twitter X) Former Pakistani cricketer Salman Butt is confident that the upcoming 2025 ICC Champions Trophy will be a huge success as it will be hosted in Pakistan. This is because cricket enjoys immense popularity in Pakistan. He further said that the tournament will be even bigger than the recently concluded 2024 T20 World Cup, which was hosted by the West Indies and the United States of America (USA). The former Pakistan captain says that the US was chosen as the host for the 2024 T20 World Cup, but cricket was not popular there. Due to which the tournament could not be organized with much fanfare and was not much discussed. Butt explained in his YouTube video how things will be very different if the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 is held on Pakistani soil- Salman Butt gave this statement on hosting the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 “This event (ICC Champions Trophy 2025e) by Pakistan cannot be compared to the USA or any other country. It will definitely be a more successful event than the T20 World Cup. The pitches were not that good there, the stadiums were far away and the hotels were elsewhere. The locals did not know what was happening in their cities, only the foreigners living there knew about cricket.” It is worth noting that the ICC reportedly suffered huge financial losses by organizing the 2024 T20 World Cup in the US. New news agency PTIAccording to (via NDTV), the ICC had suffered a loss of around $20 million (approximately ₹167 crores). Salman Butt on the craze for cricket in Asia Explaining his point, Salman Butt highlighted that ICC events in Asian countries like India, Pakistan and Bangladesh are guaranteed to be a success due to the craze among fans. Butt said that although the teams had to travel a lot during the 2024 T20 World Cup, they will get presidential security in Pakistan, which will reduce their travel time considerably. “The love and respect that the players will get will be completely different when the tournament is played in India, Pakistan or Bangladesh. Also, the teams will not have to travel for hours. Everything will be sealed and it will take just six minutes for the team to reach the stadium. This is presidential security, a feeling that can never be had in America.”
“If tobacco or gutkha advertisement is seen in the stadium then…” Health Ministry in action, notice will be issued to BCCI
Tobacco-Ads-in-cricket-stadium The Union Health Ministry has recently announced that tobacco and gutkha advertisements will not be displayed in any stadium in India. Many cricket grounds hosting popular tournaments like IPL display tobacco advertisements, including those of gutkha-paan masala and chewing tobacco. Obviously, these advertisements earn a lot of money for BCCI. But this is pushing the youth of the country on the wrong path. Bollywood stars forget that they are role models for Indian youth and they proudly promote gutkha and tobacco. It is worth noting that cricket is celebrated like a festival in India and this game is very popular among the youth. There have been many cases in which smokeless tobacco advertisements have been shown during cricket matches and celebrity endorsements. This indirectly attracts the youth. Therefore, now there are reports that the DGHS of the Ministry of Health may write a letter to the BCCI and urge it to stop showing tobacco related advertisements. “These advertisements are actually advertisements of famous tobacco/gutkha brands and are being sold in the name of pan masala, cardamom and other food items to circumvent the laws. Delhi State Tobacco Control had issued many show cause notices to Bollywood and cricket stars. The advertisements of pan masala were rampant and were effectively stopped in many cases. After this, now they mostly promote tobacco in the name of fragrant cardamom.” 41.3% of World Cup ads were for tobacco A study by the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) and global health organisation Vital Strategies was published in the British Medical Journal in May. It reported that 41.3% of all surrogate advertising of smokeless tobacco (SLT) brands in 2023 were shown during the last 17 matches of the Cricket World Cup.
