The BCCI is yet to give its consent to the Pakistan Cricket Board’s (PCB)’s tentative plan of hosting the marquee Pakistan vs India clash on 1 March in Lahore in next year’s Champions Trophy, a senior ICC board member was quoted as telling news agency PTI on Wednesday.

The ‘mini World Cup’ returns to action after eight years and will be taking place between 19 February and 9 March with a ‘Reserve Day’ on 10 March. Pakistan, the team that had won the tournament for the first time after defeating arch-rivals India in the final of the 2017 edition at The Oval, will be hosting the ninth edition of the tournament.

“All board chiefs of the ICC Champions Trophy participating countries (minus BCCI) have assured him of their complete support but BCCI will consult its government and update the ICC,” the source added.

The ICC, on its part, can’t force any Board to go against its government policy and it will be interesting to see as to when BCCI takes a final call on the matter.
