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.

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.

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?
