The BCCI has made clear that the question of Team India going to Pakistan for next year's ICC Champion's Trophy is dependent on the Union government granting permission.

BCCI vice-president Rajeev Shukla told ANI on Monday that the Indian cricket board will follow the Centre's directives on the matter.

“In the case of the Champion Trophy, we will do whatever the government of India will tell us to do. We send our team only when the government of India gives us permission. So, we will go according to the decision of the Indian government,” Shukla said.
