While the ICC is yet to release the schedule of the tournament, reports had emerged earlier that it will be released at the end of this week.

Earlier there were several reports that the International Cricket Council (ICC) is trying to convince the PCB to host the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 under the hybrid model to ensure Team India’s participation in the tournament. The Indian team last travelled to Pakistan back 2008, however, since then both the countries have played one bilateral series back in 2012, when the Pakistani team came to India. Since the 2008 Asia Cup, Team India hasn’t toured Pakistan for any bilateral series or tournament.
