Pakistan official didn't deserve to be in final, ICC showed us mirror: Kamran Akmal

India Today  

Former Pakistan cricketer Kamran Akmal said that no representative from their country deserved to be in the presentation ceremony during the final of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. No one from the Pakistan Cricket Board was present on the podium during the prize distribution ceremony after the final despite them being the hosts of the tournament, which left many surprised. During the ceremony, BCCI president Roger Binny, BCCI secretary Devajit Saikia, ICC chairman Jay Shah and New Zealand Cricket's CEO Roger Twose were on the stage to present the accolades to the two finalists, India and New Zealand. Earlier, much before the Champions Trophy began, PCB were unhappy with India’s reluctance to not travel to Pakistan for the tournament due to uncordial political relations between the two countries.
