Chairman of the Pakistan Cricket Board Mohsin Naqvi had expressed his interest in having a bilateral series with archrivals India, but sources in BCCI say India might not even travel to Pakistan for Champions Trophy 2025.

According to a report in Indo-Asian News Service (IANS), there is a chance of change in venue or adoption of a hybrid model for the tournament.

"Forget bilateral series...Team India may not even travel to Pakistan for the Champions Trophy. There might be a change of venue, s hybrid model is also possible," BCCI sources told IANS. 

"The Indian board would need permission from the government for travel, currently our relations with Pakistan are not that good either,” source further added.

“Champions Trophy is an ICC event, so it would be a tough call for India but nothing without the government's order/green signal. Bilateral series, I don't see in the near future, that's next to impossible,” source added.

Both India and Pakistan last played a bilateral series in 2012-13 due to strained political tensions between the two countries.
