PCB shifts Venues for Tri-nation ODI series with ongoing preparations for the Champions Trophy 2025

The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has decided to change the venues for the upcoming tri-nation ODI series, which will feature Pakistan, New Zealand, and South Africa, set to begin February 8. The original venue for the series was to be in Multan, but now the board shifted it to Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore and the National Stadium in Karachi.

The board stated that the reason for this change in venues was because of their confidence in the readiness of these upgraded venues, and shared a release in order to announce the updated venue for the tri-nation ODI series.

“Given the advanced stage of preparations at the Gaddafi Stadium and the National Bank Stadium, the PCB has decided to relocate the upcoming tri-nation ODI series to these two venues. The series, featuring New Zealand and South Africa alongside Pakistan, was originally scheduled to be held in Multan,” said PCB in release. 

Both the stadiums are currently under renovations for the upcoming Champions Trophy 2025. PCB will be the host of the marquee event, which is set to take pace with all the matches to be played in Pakistan, along with the exception of India’s matches, which will be held in Dubai.

The venues for the semi-final and final of the Champions Trophy will either be within Pakistan, or it will change to Dubai. If India qualifies for the semi-final and final, the matches will be held in Dubai, otherwise Lahore will host the clashes.
