Champions Trophy 2025: Will Pakistan Be Ready?
Stadiums Under Scrutiny: A Race Against Time
With the Champions Trophy 2025 just around the corner, concerns are mounting about Pakistan's stadium preparations. Upgrades at key venues in Karachi, Lahore, and Rawalpindi are behind schedule, raising doubts about the country's hosting capabilities. Reports indicate unfinished seating, floodlights, and even outfields, putting pressure on the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) to meet the ICC's standards. An upcoming ICC inspection could determine whether the tournament stays in Pakistan or moves to the UAE. Despite the challenges, the PCB insists the venues will be ready by a revised deadline. They've even adjusted a tri-nation series schedule to test the facilities. Will Pakistan overcome these hurdles and deliver a successful Champions Trophy? The cricketing world is watching closely.
