Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) is all set to adopt the hybrid model for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. As per the reports in Sports Tak, it is learned that the International Cricket Council (ICC) has given an ultimatum to the hosting board at the ICC Board meeting.
The ICC Board meeting lasted only 15 minutes on Friday and tomorrow a new meeting is scheduled. The conclusion related to the tournament will be drawn and clarity related to where and how the tournament will be played will also be revealed.
The reports claimed that the ICC has given PCB a day to mull over the Hybrid Formula. The governing body also has made a plan if the Pakistan Cricket Board remains adamant on its stance to host the entire tournament in Pakistan.
It is learned that if that happens or even if Pakistan threatens to pull out of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, the ICC will be moving the tournament to a different country altogether. Hence, it is expected that the hosting nation will go ahead with the Hybrid model.
