Amidst India's participation debates in the Pakistan-hosted Champions Trophy 2025, India's traveling T20I captain Suryakumar Yadav gave a witty reply to a Pakistani fan on being asked about India's reluctance to travel to Pakistan. Presently, India is playing a 4-match T20I away series against South Africa. The team led by Suryakumar Yadav, even though won the first match, failed to replicate similar results in the second. A video went viral on social media Where Suryakumar was seen posing with his teammate Rinku Singh, giving selfies to the fans. The viral video shows the fan answering Surya that he will return soon after he watches the match. Later, he asked Surya. "Pakistan kiun nehi arahy aap? (Why aren't you coming to Pakistan?)" In reply, Suryakumar gave a pale smile, answering, "Arey bhaiya! Humare haath me thodi hai (Hey brother, it’s not in our hands).” Pakistan Fans asking India's T20I Captain @surya_14kumar - Why won't he come to Pakistan ?Answer--He won't be selected.How will he go to Pakistan ?#ChampionsTrophy2025 pic.twitter.com/BgPlCcbROy — alekhaNikun (@nikun28) November 11, 2024 Read: South Africa May Host 2025 Champions Trophy Amidst Uncertainty The 2025 Champions Trophy dilemma Even though the players and fans share a comparatively better sporting relationship, the cricketing boards don't. As a result, confusions are prevailing with the scheduling of the Champions Trophy 2025 after India backed out of it, citing security issues in Pakistan. Earlier, reports claimed that Pakistan may have agreed to the hybrid model as they did in the 2023 Asia Cup. This time PCB chief Mohsin Naqvi clearly stated that the tournament is going nowhere. Initially, a cold war between the two boards followed by an official mail from BCCI to ICC cleared the air that India is not travelling to Pakistan. Pakistan agreed to travel to India in the 2023 ICC ODI World Cup, but India visited Pakistan back in the 2012-13 bilateral series.
