The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) is making significant progress in preparations for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, with major upgrades at the Lahore and Karachi stadiums nearing completion.
Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore and National Bank Stadium in Karachi are both on track to host ICC tournament matches.
The PCB has assured spectators and media that all upgradation work will be completed on schedule and before the set deadlines. At Gaddafi Stadium, new seating arrangements have been installed, and 480 modern LED lights have been added to enhance the matchday experience.
Additionally, a new hotel enclosure for players and officials is set to be operational by January 25.
Similar improvements are underway at National Bank Stadium, where a new hotel enclosure for players and officials has been built at the University End. Minor works are also being carried out at Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium, including the installation of 10,000 new seats, upgrading hotel boxes, and adding two digital replay screens.
Over 250 workers are working around the clock to ensure that all stadiums are ready in time for the ICC Champions Trophy and other international events.
The PCB remains fully committed to providing world-class facilities for both players and spectators.
