The three cities selected to host the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 starting on February 19 are Lahore, Karachi, and Rawalpindi. The project is due to be finished by January 25, 2025.
The three stadiums for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 in Lahore, Rawalpindi, and Karachi are experiencing construction delays, raising serious concerns about their readiness before the deadline. The original deadline for Pakistan, which is hosting a major ICC event for the first time in 30 years, was December 31, 2024.The deadline was moved to January 25 because there was still a lot of work to be done. However, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) is certain that all of the work will be completed by the deadline in time for the 2025 Champions Trophy. From the outside, however, things appear different. A Times of India story claims that although adequate building is already ongoing, all three stadiums are still far from being completed.
The report also noted that the delay was caused by unfavorable weather conditions for building. The report also stated that the plastering at Lahore's Gaddafi Stadium is still unfinished.
A new players' and officials' hospitality enclosure will be operational in January last week, and two enormous digital replay screens will be erected at Gaddafi Stadium next week, among other incomplete projects. For the first time, the PCB has set aside 17 billion Pakistani rupees to upgrade the stadiums for the 2025 Champions Trophy.
A viral video demonstrates the development of Gaddafi Stadium.
Construction work is underway, virtually from scratch, according to a video that has gone popular on social media. The video shows cars, bricks, ladders, cement, and construction equipment. Additionally, it said that about 250 personnel are being sent to the Gaddafi Stadium in order to prepare it before the deadline of January 25.
For the unknown, all of India's Champions Trophy matches will take place in Dubai. India will play in Dubai again if they make it to the semifinals and final.
