However, this scenario is considered highly unlikely due to India\u2019s significant commercial value. While rare, there are precedents in sports where teams or contingents have been replaced due to an inability to participate in events hosted by specific countries. For instance, the 1980 Moscow Olympics proceeded without several nations. However, the ICC&#8217;s decision-making may differ significantly from the International Olympic Committee. One proposal under consideration involves a hybrid model, with Pakistan hosting most matches while games involving India are held in a neutral venue, likely the UAE.\u00a0 Sources within the Pakistan Cricket Board stated that the PCB has already rejected the hybrid model but a source in ICC insisted on the possibility of it still being an option. If such a model is proposed, the PCB \u2014 it is expected \u2014 will insist that no Pakistan matches, including the group match against India, are scheduled outside Pakistan. The source in ICC emphasised that a tournament without a Pakistan-India match is unlikely to gain traction. Other options include relocating the entire event to a neutral venue or postponing it to a later date. Additionally, there is speculation that, to pressurise Pakistan to soften its stance, the ICC might propose stripping Pakistan of hosting rights altogether, a move that the PCB is expected to strongly oppose. The PCB has formally asked the ICC to provide detailed and workable proposals ahead of Friday\u2019s meeting. It has also reiterated its request for the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) to submit its position in writing, along with reasons and supporting evidence for India\u2019s refusal to tour. Another source confirmed that the PCB has informed the ICC it cannot accept the hybrid model. Late Wednesday, PCB Chairman Mohsin Naqvi visited Lahore\u2019s Gaddafi Stadium, where he assured stakeholders that he would advocate for what is in Pakistan cricket\u2019s best interests. He also dismissed the notion of abandoning Pakistan\u2019s longstanding stance against financial compensation over hosting rights.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pakistan(National Times)- Reliable sources told\u00a0Geo News\u00a0that several options are on the table, including holding the tournament in Pakistan without India.
