Amidst the debate regarding the readiness of the stadiums ahead of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, Pakistan will host South Africa and New Zealand in a Tri-Nation series, starting on February 8, as a preparation before the big ticket event. The ICC Champions Trophy 2025 starts on February 19 with Lahore, Karachi and Rawalpindi as three venues.
The four-match Tri-Nation series will be played in the newly-renovated Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore and the National Stadium in Karachi. All the three teams will play one match against each other in a round-robin format with the top two sides meeting in the final on February 14.
This is an ideal preparation for all the three teams for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. While the series will give Pakistan momentum going into the mega event, for South Africa and New Zealand it will provide them with the fair knowledge about the wickets and conditions.
