After BCCI's mess over team's participation in Champions Trophy was relayed to PCB, y have put forth matter into hands of PAK Government for guidance. While possibility of a hybrid model has alrey been ruled out by PCB Chief Mohsin Naqvi, ICC may opt to shift tournament out of Pakistan. In such a circumstance, reports from Dawn suggest that government may urge PCB to t participate in ICC Champions Trophy.

“In such a case, one of options government is mul­ling is that of asking PCB to ensure Pakistan don’t participate in Champions Trophy,” a source said,

reports also ded that federal government is looking at issue quite “seriously.” ditionally, it states that until problems between India and Pakistan are resolved at governmental level, authorities may request that PCB should decline to play against India in any ICC or ACC competitions.
