The news about the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) accepting the ICC’s offer to hold the Champions Trophy 2025 in a hybrid model has become very popular. A schedule for India’s matches is also being shared online. According to the post, India will play three group matches. Their first match will be against Bangladesh on 20 February 2025 in Dubai.
India’s second match is said to be against Australia on 23 February 2025, also in Dubai. The much-awaited India vs Pakistan match is expected to happen on 1 March 2025 at the same venue. Other matches in the tournament will take place in Pakistan.
This hybrid model was created because India does not want to travel to Pakistan due to safety concerns and tensions at the border. The ICC made a big offer to the PCB to agree to this arrangement. However, there is no official confirmation yet, and the final schedule is still to be announced.
Many former Pakistan cricketers like Shoaib Akhtar, Tanvir Ahmed, and Wasim Akram have asked Indian players and officials to come to Pakistan.

Fans of Virat Kohli in Pakistan are also asking him to come and play in their country. They want to see him perform live. Everyone is eagerly waiting for official updates about the Champions Trophy 2025.
