Champions Trophy 2025: Indian Cricket Team is ready to travel to Pakistan for Champions Trophy

The upcoming Champions Trophy 2025 in Pakistan has created a heated debate about whether Team India will travel a Pakistan for Champions Trophy or not . Because the past 17 years, the Indian government has not allowed the Indian team to travel to Pakistan due to terrorism, poor relations and security concerns between both countries. But this ongoing situation complicates the possibility of the Champions Trophy happening smoothly and India team will travel to Pakistan.

Today a Pakistani news channel Journalist Faizan Lakhani tweet that Indian External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar has engaged in discussions about “Cricket Diplomacy” with his Pakistani counterpart. Currently Indian Foreign Minister S. Jaishankar is visiting Pakistan for the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) conference, so Pakistan is raising hopes of a possible change in the current tense atmosphere between these two countries and they hope that Indian team will travel after S. Jaishankar visit in Pakistan.

Journalist Faizan Lakhani from Geo News shared on social media that the foreign ministers of both countries have talked about cricket diplomacy and that formal discussions on cricket could begin soon. However, there has been no official confirmation from either the Indian or Pakistan governments regarding these discussions.

This visit is particularly significant as it marks the first time in nine years that an Indian foreign minister has been to Pakistan. The timing is crucial, especially with the Champions Trophy scheduled for February-March. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has made it clear that they cannot send the team to Pakistan without government approval. Meanwhile, the Pakistan Cricket Board insists the tournament will take place in Pakistan and that a hybrid model is off the table.
