PTC News Desk: Pakistan is likely to file a case with the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) over India's refusal to go for the Champions Trophy 2025. There has been a lot of speculation over the Indian cricket team's likely participation in the competition, considering the two nations have not played a single bilateral series in more than a decade due to political issues. While Pakistan travelled to India for the 2023 ODI World Cup, it is unclear whether India will travel to Pakistan in 2025.

According to media sources, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has proposed a 'hybrid' theory to the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) under which India will play its matches in Dubai.


However, PCB chief Mohsin Naqvi rejected any such communication, stating that Pakistan will not hold any competition matches outside of the country. 

Earlier, it was reported that the BCCI had informed the International Cricket Council (ICC) that India would not travel to Pakistan for the competition.

"This is an ICC event and BCCI has informed the global body that it won't travel to Pakistan. It will depend on the ICC to inform the host nation about the development and then close in on the scheduling of the tournament. The convention is to announce the schedule 100 days prior to the commencement of the event," a BCCI source said.

Naqvi, who is also a federal interior minister in the current government, stated that if India does not come to Pakistan, he will have to approach his government for further instructions. It is understandable that Dubai is the finest location for India's matches because it has the largest capacity of the three stadiums and has already hosted the Women's T20 World Cup last month.
