Pak May Take India To Court Over Champions Trophy Travel Refusal: Sources

Pakistan is likely to go to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) over India's refusal to travel for Champions Trophy 2025, according to sources. There has been a lot of chatter on India's participation in the competition as the two sides have not played a single bilateral series in nearly a decade over political tensions. While Pakistan did travel to India for the 2023 ODI World Cup, it still remains unclear whether India will travel to Pakistan in 2025 or not. Media reports suggested that the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has suggested a 'hybrid' theory to Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) where India will play their matches in Dubai. However, PCB chief Mohsin Naqvi denied any such communication and stated that Pakistan remain adamant on the fact that no matches of the competition will be held outside the country.
