Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) is all set to begin 2025 Champions Trophy with all the preparations done. However, India’s participation in the tournament is still uncertain.
Following, former Pakistan cricketer Basit Ali has accused BCCI secretary Jay Shah over India’s decision for 2025 Champions Trophy. BCCI has requested International Cricket Council (ICC) of relocating 2025 Champions Trophy in other neutral venue.
Ali frustrated by BCCI’s stance, stated, “There are 5-6 boards, they will talk with their tails wagging what Jay Shah will say. If he says the Champions Trophy will be in Pakistan, they’ll agree. If he says it’ll be a hybrid model, they’ll go with that too.”
He added, “It’s because when their players play in the IPL, BCCI pays their boards a huge amount whether it’s the English board, New Zealand board, West Indies board, or Australia board.”
