The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) is poised to seek clarity from the International Cricket Council (ICC) regarding the hosting arrangements for the upcoming Champions Trophy, following India's decision not to travel to Pakistan for the event.
A communication from the ICC informed the PCB that the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) would not be sending its team, but there was no mention of a hybrid model to address this situation. The hybrid model was used successfully during last year's Asia Cup, where India's matches took place in Sri Lanka.
Speculation swirls that Dubai might host India's matches in the tournament slated for February next year. The PCB, awaiting policy guidelines from the government, is drafting an email to the ICC, seeking these clarifications and preparing for possible legal implications due to ICC's commitments to commercial partners.
