The International Cricket Council (ICC) has extended satisfaction over the arrangements made by Pakistan for the upcoming Champions Trophy, sources told Geo News on Monday.
The development came during an ICC meeting wherein detailed briefing of the arrangements was laid out with PCB Chairman Mohsin Naqvi also present.
The ICC board members were assured by PCB officials regarding the upgradation of stadiums, saying that the work was on track and all the remaining work will be completed within the stipulated time, the sources added.
Naqvi also invited the ICC board members to Pakistan to review the preparations for the mega event to be hosted next year and also extended an invitation once the tournament commences.
The event is set to kick start from February 19 to March 9, 2025, in Pakistan, though the cricketing nation has faced obstacles in hosting including uncertainty of the Indian cricket team participating in the tournament.
The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) seeks the Indian government's approval to visit the country for the mega tournament.
Earlier, the PCB proposed that the Indian team may return to their country after each match to minimise their stay in Pakistan during the Champions Trophy 2025, The News reported.
It should be noted that India and Pakistan have not played against each other in a bilateral series since 2012-13.
Furthermore, the neighbours last travelled to Pakistan in 2008.
