With under 100 days to go for the 2025 Champions Trophy, scheduled in Pakistan, the ICC has still not formally announced the dates for the tournament. The schedule, too, has not been finalised. Why? India,

Media reports suggest that if a desperate ICC eventually shifts the tournament from Pakistan, PCB stands to lose to the tune of $65 million

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) secretary Jay Shah has strongly condemned the Pakistan Cricket Board’s (PCB) decision to hold the Champions Trophy tour in Pakistan-occupied Jammu-Kashmir (PoJK) and urged ICC to take appropriate action in light of BCCI’s concerns over territorial integrity and political interference in sports,

Citing concerns over "territorial integrity and political interference in sports", BCCI Secretary Jay Shah on Friday launched a sharp attack on Pak's announcement to conduct the Champions Trophy tour in Pakistan-Occupied Kashmir areas,

The recent 'Beyond The Boundary' episode sparked debate by highlighting BCCI secretary Jay Shah's firm stance against PCB's proposal to host ICC Champions Trophy matches in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir.

The ICC has asked PCB to cancel the Champions Trophy trophy tour in PoK regions following BCCI's objections. With India’s participation uncertain and ongoing smog issues in key Pakistani cities, the PCB must revise its promotional plans for CT 2025.

If Pakistan pulls out of the hosting rights then in all likelihood, UAE will host the tournament. The broadcasters on the other hand will want the tournament in the same time zone. The official announcement will be made in the coming weeks after discussions with all stakeholders.
