Pakistan if not taking decisions sensibly,
have themselves to be blamed

India's refusal to travel to Pakistan for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 is undeniably damaging to the country's reputation, especially at a time when Pakistan is actively seeking to host ICC events in the future. This decision raises significant doubts about Pakistan's ability to successfully bid for and host global cricket tournaments on its own territory.

Motivated by political factors, this refusal not only undermines Pakistan’s position in the cricketing world but also delivers a clear message of instability and hesitation regarding its capacity to host major events. The consequences of this decision are profound; it limits Pakistan's chances of securing prestigious ICC events in the future and risks severely harming its cricketing reputation on the international stage. Pakistan must address this challenge head-on to reclaim its standing in the global cricket arena.
