Pakistan is at risk of losing its status as the host of the 2025 ICC Champions Trophy, following confirmation that the Indian cricket team will not travel to Pakistan for the event. The International Cricket Council (ICC) has proposed a hybrid model, suggesting Pakistan host the tournament but with India’s matches scheduled in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). This idea has been under discussion for months, and the ICC is pressuring the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) to adopt this model. According to the report, if the PCB rejects this proposal, the ICC may strip Pakistan of its hosting rights, with South Africa potentially taking over. The 8-team event is scheduled for February-March 2025. Earlier reports suggested that Pakistan might withdraw from the tournament if not allowed to host the entire event on home soil. This situation mirrors the 2023 Asia Cup, where Pakistan lost the majority of its hosting rights after India refused to travel. Most of the matches were relocated to Sri Lanka

Samson reached his century in just 47 balls, marking the fastest century by an Indian against South Africa and the sixth-fastest overall in T20Is. Following his explosive performance, both Yuvraj and Shastri took to social media to express their admiration. Yuvraj tweeted, “Sanju you beauty!
