Pakistan, India, and other key stakeholders have come to an agreement to choose Dubai as the neutral venue for some of the matches in the 2025 ICC Champions Trophy. While Dubai is the leading choice, Colombo is also being considered as an alternative option. A final decision on the venue is expected to be announced soon.
The International Cricket Council (ICC) will soon reveal the official schedule for the tournament, which will take place in February and March 2025. Pakistan will serve as the main host for the event, but matches between India and Pakistan are set to be played at neutral venues to accommodate logistical and political sensitivities.
The 2025 Champions Trophy will bring together eight of the world’s top cricket teams, including Afghanistan, Australia, Bangladesh, England, India, New Zealand, South Africa, and Pakistan. The tournament promises to be a thrilling competition, uniting cricket fans from around the globe as they cheer for their favorite teams.
Dubai’s state-of-the-art cricket facilities and its experience in hosting international events make it a strong contender for the neutral venue. Meanwhile, Colombo, with its rich cricketing history, also remains in the running. Both cities are prepared to provide an exceptional cricketing experience for players and fans alike.
As the cricketing world eagerly awaits the final schedule and venue announcement, excitement continues to build for what is expected to be one of the most exciting tournaments of the year.
