The International Cricket Council (ICC) is actively working to address the concerns raised by the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) regarding India's possible withdrawal from visiting Pakistan for the upcoming 2025 Champions Trophy.

Following the PCB's formal communication, which raised questions about India's stance on the hybrid model, the ICC has reached out to the BCCI for clarification.

Sources confirm that the PCB has been actively engaging with other cricket boards, informing them of the Indian board's position, which has placed the ICC in a challenging position. Pakistan, steadfast in its opposition to the hybrid model, has expressed dissatisfaction with the current situation, further complicating matters for the governing body.

The ICC is expected to take a few days to craft a detailed response to the PCB's inquiries. According to reports, after Pakistan outlined its concerns regarding India's refusal, the ICC initiated discussions with the Indian Cricket Board to clarify the matter and gather the necessary information to respond adequately to the PCB's email.

Additionally, the Indian Cricket Board is expected to issue a written statement after thorough consideration of the legal implications involved. The ICC will base its formal reply to the PCB on this statement. In the meantime, ICC officials are consulting with other cricketing nations to explore possible solutions to the ongoing issue between Pakistan and India.

The development comes at a time when tensions surrounding the hybrid model have added complexity to the planning for the Champions Trophy, prompting the ICC to seek a sustainable resolution that aligns with all parties' interests.

The 2025 mega event tournament is scheduled to take place in Pakistan in February-March, marking the country's first international event to be hosted since 2008.
