The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), along with former cricketers and various media outlets, is in an uproar following India’s refusal to send its team to Pakistan for the upcoming Champions Trophy.

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has officially communicated its position to the International Cricket Council (ICC), reiterating its stance on not traveling to Pakistan. However, the PCB is adamant that the ICC should provide a more thorough explanation, expressing its dissatisfaction with India's decision. Despite the hosts’ reluctance to adopt a hybrid model for the tournament, the ICC is engaged in discussions to find a viable middle ground for the event.
