The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has issued a threat to the International Cricket Council (ICC), which has caused a sensation in the entire cricket world.
In fact, there has been a big question mark over the fate of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, where Pakistan has flatly refused to make any compromises regarding its stance.
India-Pakistan cricket rivalry New turn
The Pakistan Cricket Board has proposed a very interesting “fusion model,” which is trying to give a whole new dimension to India-Pakistan cricket relations. According to the proposed model, the two countries will be able to play against each other only at neutral venues for the next three years.
This is a formula that at first glance probably looks like a path to peace, but in reality it represents a complex political conundrum.
The Pakistan Cricket Board has made it clear that it will not back down from its stand. “If India doesn’t play in Pakistan, Pakistan won’t go to India for any ICC event. This is a statement that reflects a completely confrontational position.
What will happen next?
The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) did not agree to the proposal. He believes that every tournament has different conditions and a common formula may not be suitable for everyone. Meanwhile, the ICC is also very concerned about this controversy.
Interestingly, the ICC and broadcast companies are threatening legal action if Pakistan decides to boycott ICC events. This situation is a turning point where cricket is caught in the clutches of politics.
Senior officials of the Pakistan Cricket Board are currently holding meetings with the ICC in Dubai. They are absolutely determined for their “fusion model” and are vigorously arguing in favor of it.
However, India’s stand is still unwavering and it does not seem ready to accept this model.
