The delayed arrival of two teams participating in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 will not be the opening ceremony.
There will be no press conference and pre-tournament photo shoot in Karachi, Indian captain Rohit Sharma will not come to Karachi for the press conference, and Indian media speculations have been dissolved, though the opening ceremony was not officially confirmed. But earlier reports indicated that work was underway.
On the other hand, the Pakistan Cricket Board says that the opening ceremony was discussed with internal and ICC, but details or schedules were not announced. “We have never confirmed the opening ceremony because it was neither formally determined nor the ICC confirmed it,” he said.
