According to the News-18 report, BCCI Secretary Jay Shah is almost certain to become the ICC Chairman. The report quoted a source associated with the ICC as saying, now the only question is when will he become the chairman. He has one year left as BCCI secretary. After this he will have a break. According to BCCI rules, he will have a cooling off period. If he takes office in 2025, then the current chairman Barclay will not be able to complete his third term in December.
At the same time, according to sources in the Dainik Bhaskar report, it has been told that the 2025 Champions Trophy can now be played in Sri Lanka or Dubai. However, earlier it was reported that the 2025 Champions Trophy will be played in a hybrid model. Under the hybrid model, Team India would play its matches in some other country instead of Pakistan. It was also being said that Team India can play its matches in the Champions Trophy in Sri Lanka or Dubai. However, now the entire tournament can be held in Dubai or Sri Lanka.
Asia Cup was played in hybrid model
Earlier, the hosting of the 2023 Asia Cup was also in the hands of Pakistan. However, Team India had clearly refused to go to Pakistan for the Asia Cup. Then this tournament was played in a hybrid model. In the 2023 Asia Cup, India played its matches in Sri Lanka. The match between India and Pakistan was also played in Sri Lanka.
