PCB spends 12 Billion PKR for Champions Trophy
The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has reportedly invested 12 billion Pakistani rupees in renovating three stadiums for their first ICC event since the 1996 World Cup. However, delays in completing the renovations have raised concerns about the country’s readiness to host the Champions Trophy 2025. The renovation work was initially expected to be completed by December 31, but with Pakistan missing the deadline at all three venues, there were reports suggesting that the country could lose the hosting rights for the Champions Trophy 2025.
It appears that not much has changed, even after the deadline was extended to January 25. According to a report in Pakistan’s The Dawn, Lahore’s Gaddafi Stadium is still not ready, and the completion deadline has now been pushed to February 2. However, the report also mentioned that “most of the work” at the stadium is complete, and only “final touches” remain.
