The future of the Champions Trophy 2025 was up in the air after India refused to travel to Pakistan for the tournament. However, the impasse finally ended on December 19, just two months before the start of the tournament. The ICC announced that the tournament is set to take place in the hybrid model with India playing their matches at a neutral venue. This comes after multiple reports that the PCB will refused t accept this model. However, former Pakistan captain Javed Miandad has made a massive claim that PCB has won over the BCCI.

In an interaction with news agency PTI, Javed Miandad said that the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) took the sensible approach instead of doing something rash and facing isolation in the ICC by all other boards. He said that the PCB has gained more than BCCI.

"I think the PCB took the sensible approach and instead of doing something rash and facing isolation in the ICC and among other cricket nations, it opted for a solution where I think the PCB has gained more than the BCCI," he said.

The ICC have declared that all events taking place in either India or Pakistan from 2024-27 will be held in the hybrid model. This means that India will not travel to Pakistan for the 2025 Champions Trophy, On the other hand Pakistan will not travel to India for the 2025 Women's ODI world Cup, and the 2026 Men's T20 World Cup.

Miandad has said that PCB have given a loud message that if India do not come to Pakistan, then they too would not travel to India to play any matches.

"Still Pakistan is hosting a big event after a very long time and we have sent a clear message that if you don't come and play in our country, we will also not play in India,"
