ICC Champions Trophy 2025 Venues
The matches will be played across three venues in Pakistan: Karachi, Lahore, and Rawalpindi. The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has proposed a draft schedule that slots all of India’s matches in Lahore to minimize travel and facilitate easier fan access from the Wagah border near Amritsar.
However, India’s participation in the tournament remains uncertain due to ongoing political tensions with Pakistan. The Indian government is reportedly unwilling to allow the national team to travel to Pakistan, citing security concerns. If India decides to skip the tournament, there could be a venue change or a hybrid model adopted for the event.
The PCB is ensuring that all arrangements, including security and facilities, are of the highest standard to provide a successful and memorable cricketing experience.
