Champions Trophy 2025: Political unrest and Sri Lanka A's withdrawal strengthen BCCI's case

Firstpost  

The Champions Trophy 2025 faces growing uncertainty as political unrest in Pakistan and Sri Lanka A’s withdrawal midway from a tournament cast a shadow over its ability to successfully host the ICC tournament. Image: PCB on X/AP While the impasse over Champions Trophy 2025 continues, the news of the Sri Lanka A team leaving Pakistan midway through their ongoing series has come as a big blow for the Pakistan Cricket Board. “The Pakistan Cricket Board, in consultation with Sri Lanka Cricket, has postponed the last two 50-over matches of the Pakistan Shaheens-Sri Lanka ‘A’ series due to a political activity in the federal capital,” the PCB said in a statement on Tuesday. The PCB is expected to once again vehemently push its case of hosting the entire Champions Trophy 2025 in the country but Sri Lanka A leaving Pakistan due to political unrest only strengthens BCCI’s stand and would make it easy for other board members also to vote in favour of India.
