The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has sent the draft schedule of the Champions Trophy 2025, which will be held in Pakistan next year, to the International Cricket Council (ICC).
Indian media has claimed from ICC sources that, according to the draft, the Pakistan-India clash will be held on March 1 at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore.
The Indian Cricket Board has not yet given consent to the PCB regarding the schedule of the matches.
Considering security issues, all India matches have been scheduled to be played in Lahore. New Zealand and Bangladesh have been placed in Group A along with Pakistan and India.
Australia, England, South Africa and Afghanistan have been placed in Group B, with all participating member nations of the Champions Trophy having assured the ICC of their support. The Indian Board will take its decision after consulting the Indian government.
