There is still doubt over India’s participation in the upcoming Champions Trophy 2025 to be held in Pakistan.

Speculations are rife that the BCCI will not send the Indian team to Pakistan for the mega ICC event and will have a word with the ICC to adopt the hybrid model.

Meanwhile, veteran Pakistan wicketkeeper batter Moin Khan has fired shorts at the BCCI over the possibility.

“Former India cricketers like Sachin Tendulkar, Sourav Ganguly, Kapil Dev, Rahul Dravid, etc. should tell their cricket board to keep politics away from cricket. Cricket should not be obstructed by political issues. The fans would love to see India and Pakistan play. It will not only benefit Pakistan, but overall cricket will be benefited,” said Moin during a recent interview.

“If India doesn’t honour their commitments then Pakistan should also start taking such decisions in the future for the tournament which are scheduled to be played in India,” he added.

Notably, the bilateral series from December 2012 to January 2013 in India was the final bilateral series between the two nations. Both the nations have only clashed at ICC tournaments and the Asia Cup since then.
