There Will Be No Champions Trophy Without India, Says Aakash Chopra
As per reports, the BCCI had informed the ICC that India would not travel to Pakistan for the mega event and the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has sought the guidance of the federal government. Meanwhile, Chopra argues that India’s absence could force the ICC to reconsider the tournament altogether due to the financial implications of missing the sport’s largest market.
Chopra highlighted that India’s participation is fundamental for the success of any ICC tournament, citing its impact on broadcast revenues. "Yes, this is an ICC event. Broadcasters have committed money for the event. But there is always a rider that if ICC cannot ensure India's participation, then the broadcasters will not invest or there will be a financial re-evaluation. If India does not participate, the money falls drastically," Aakash said on his YouTube channel, reflecting on the ongoing saga over the Champions Trophy.
