NEW DELHI: This means that hosts and defending champions Pakistan will play India at a yet-to-be-decided neutral venue.

"India and Pakistan matches hosted by either country at ICC events during the 2024-2027 rights cycle will be played at a neutral venue, the ICC board confirmed," said a statement released by the global body.

The Champions Trophy will feature eight teams - Afghanistan, Australia, Bangladesh, England, India, New Zealand, Pakistan, and South Africa - divided into two groups of four, followed by semi-finals and a final.

India had refused to travel to Pakistan for the event due to security concerns. The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) had earlier declined to play the Champions Trophy under the hybrid model but backed down after settling on neutral venues for both sides in ICC tournaments.
