Champions Trophy 2025: The next edition of the ICC Champions Trophy is slowly but steadily snowballing into crisis. Amidst the growing uncertainty over whether India will send its team to Pakistan, former cricketer Tanveer Ahmed has lashed out at his fellow countrymen for what he sees as a lack of dignity in handling the situation.The ICC Champions Trophy, a prestigious international cricket tournament, is set to be held in 2025, with Pakistan originally awarded the hosting rights. However, a major hurdle has emerged after the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) reportedly informed the International Cricket Council (ICC) that India would not travel to Pakistan for the event due to security concerns. In response, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has warned it could give up the tournament’s hosting rights altogether if India refuses to participate.The BCCI, however, is reportedly open to holding its matches, if not the entire tournament, at a neutral venue. Talks are ongoing, and a final decision is expected in the coming weeks, but the standoff has already ignited intense debate both within the cricketing world and on social media.Also Read: FACT CHECK: Here's The Reality Behind Javed Miandad's Viral Video Of Threatening To Slaughter PeopleTanveer Ahmed asks his people to demand respect for themselvesAmidst this backdrop, former Pakistan cricketer Tanveer Ahmed took to social media to express his displeasure not at India’s stance, but at the behavior of his own countrymen.
