2025 after India’s victory in the ICC Champions Trophy FinalThe decision of the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) is speculated not to send representatives to the awards ceremony.
Former Pakistani cricket players Shoaib Akhtar and Wasim Akram have expressed concern, which is surprising why, despite the host of the Pakistan competition, no PCB official appeared on the stage.
With a decisive victory in the final, India, organized by Rohit Sharma, won its first ICC One Day Championship in twelve years. However, when Akhtar brought the shortage of PCB officials at the award ceremony, the after -match conversation took a different tone.
“The Champions Trophy has been won by India. However, I saw a strange personality: There was not a single member of the Pakistan Cricket Board in the attendance. The champion trophy is being held in Pakistan. Akhd remarked, “I do not see the argument.”
Akram also expressed similar concerns that while PCB Chairman Mohan Naqvi was not allegedly ill, other officials including Sameer Ahmed and Usman Wahela were present in the venue but did not participate in the event.
“Now the question is, we were host, were we not? Even the CEO of the CEO or Chairman of the Pakistan Cricket Board was not on the stage? Was it not invited? I don’t know what the story is, but it was definitely weird, “Akram said in the Sports Central’s ‘dressing room’ show.
Although there has been no official statement from the PCB about the matter, speculations have given rise to the debate over the absence of representation of the host nation at the last ceremony of the ICC event.
