The much-awaited match will take place at Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore, where all of India's matches will be held

Lahore: The highly anticipated match between Pakistan and India in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 is slated for March 1 in Lahore, as per Indian media reports citing an ICC Board member.
The much-awaited match will take place at Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore, where all of India's matches will be held. The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has already submitted the Champions Trophy schedule to the International Cricket Council (ICC), but it awaits approval from the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI).
An ICC Board member disclosed, "The PCB has submitted the draft of the 15-match ICC Champions Trophy. Seven games will be held in Lahore, three in Karachi, and five in Rawalpindi."
As per the proposed schedule, Group A consists of Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, and New Zealand, while Group B includes England, South Africa, Australia, and Afghanistan. All participating nations have expressed their support for the Champions Trophy to the ICC.
The BCCI will finalize its decision on the tournament after discussions with the Indian government.
The proposed dates for the Champions Trophy are from February 19 to March 9, with March 10 set as a reserve day.
Last month, the PCB sent the schedule for next year's Champions Trophy to the ICC for final approval, detailing that the tournament will be held in Karachi, Lahore, and Rawalpindi.
Lahore is set to host seven matches, including the final. Karachi's National Stadium will host the opening match and one of the semi-finals, totaling three matches.
Rawalpindi will host five games, including the other semi-final.
