Stunning Visuals From Afghanistan, as Champions Trophy reaches Afghanistan, See Photos and Pictures
The upcoming champion Trophy next year is just around the corner, and ICC is presenting a prestigious Trophy to cricket fans in Asia and Pakistan. The trophies have now reached Afghanistan, and some magnificent tour photos have emerged.
Fans in Afghanistan welcomed the Trophy after it arrived from an Airline Plane at Kabul Airport. It was a historic movement for Afghanistan fans since it was the first time the South Asian team would appear in the Champions Trophy. The tournament is proposed to be hosted in Pakistan, and its schedule has yet to be released. There are just a few months left.
Issues still need to be solved between India and Pakistan. A meeting about the tournament fixture was proposed on November 29, but results have yet to come. The Indian team told the ICC that it will not travel to Pakistan for security reasons. Pakistan maintains its stance that it will host the whole tournament in Pakistan itself. They also threaten that if India doesn't come to Pakistan, it will not travel to India in future ICC tournaments.
Broadcasters and stakeholders have been mounting pressure on the ICC to release the schedule as quickly as possible, and it is expected to be released in the upcoming weeks. There is also chatter about some stakeholders putting pressure on the ICC to change the tournament format to T20.
