“Take Champions Trophy 2025 to India”: Basit Ali throws open challenge to ICC

The ICC Champions Trophy 2025 is the most discussed and covered topic in cricket. Former Pakistan batter Basit Ali has reacted to reports suggesting that the tournament could be shifted to India. Pakistan are the host nation, but the Men in Blue’s refusal to play in the country has complicated the situation.

Basit has challenged the ICC to conduct the global tournament in India instead of Pakistan. He mentioned that broadcasters will face consequences.

“People are saying that ICC is likely to take the Champions Trophy 2025 to India. Please do it and play the tournament in India. No Pakistani will say anything to you. Just organize it in India and then see the consequences. The broadcasting channel will be in big trouble,” he said.
