Rohit Sharma: Indian team will not go to Pakistan for this Champions Trophy. But captain Rohit Sharma can go to Pakistan before the Champions Trophy.

New Delhi. Champions Trophy 2025 is to start from 19th February. The Indian team will play all its matches outside Pakistan. Because BCCI had already said that it will not allow the Indian team to go to Pakistan for this trophy. But captain Rohit Sharma can go to Pakistan before the Champions Trophy. Let us know what is the reason behind this.

All the captains get photographed together with the trophy so that people can be told more about the tournament. If such a photoshoot happens then Rohit Sharma may have to go to Pakistan. However, till now PCB, ICC and BCCI have not given any statement on Rohit going to Pakistan.
