Former Pakistan cricketer Wasim Akram discussed whether Team India would travel to his country for the upcoming ICC Champions Trophy next year.

The Champions Trophy will feature two groups of four teams each, with participants including Afghanistan, Australia, Bangladesh, England, India, New Zealand, Pakistan, and South Africa. "I think from what I'm reading, there are positive vibes from the Indian government and the BCCI.

I'm all for it, as long as India is comfortable," Akram said, as quoted by ESPNcricinfo. The cricketer-turned-commentator mentioned that players like Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, and Hardik Pandya have many fans in Pakistan. "I can promise you, they're going to be looked after incredibly well.
