The Pakistani scribe also added “They had gone to the same committee in 2018 and this time PCB and Pakistan’s foreign office feel they have a strong case.

Boria Majumdar later also revealed that PCB could pull out of the tournament as well.
Rashid Latif slams ICC over Champions Trophy tussle
Former Pakistan player Rashid Latif during his chat with Geo News said “CC exists only because there is Pakistan and India. If the government of Pakistan also says like India that we won't play, then the ICC will be of no use as no one will watch the match,”
The former star also added “We can say that India does not want to play bilateral matches, but you can't deny the ICC events as you already have signed it. India has to make solid ground. If India doesn't come this time, Pakistan will take a big step by not participating in the tournament”
“If it is a bilateral series or Asia Cup, then the teams are asked, whether India wants to play or not. This is an ICC event. The cycle has been signed from 2024-2031. All the broadcasters and sponsors have signed about the teams that will participate in the Champions Trophy or the World Cup” Rashid Latif ended by saying.
