While the final decision rests with the ICC Board meeting in July, the PCB’s vision focuses on Lahore – a strategic choice to simplify logistics, tighten security, and create an unforgettable experience for everyone involved.
“We’re laser-focused on hosting a world-class Champions Trophy. We’re working hand-in-hand with the ICC to address security concerns and ensure top-notch facilities”, declared PCB Chairman Mohsin Naqvi.
