India will feature host Pakistan's name in Champions Trophy jersey: Report

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has officially put to rest the controversy regarding the logo for the 2025 Champions Trophy, particularly the question of whether the jersey worn by Rohit Sharma's team will display Pakistan's name.

Recent reports from Indian media had indicated that the team winning the 2024 T20 World Cup would not have the host nation's name on their jersey. However, BCCI Secretary Devajit Saikia has confirmed that Pakistan's name will indeed appear on India's jersey, as the Indian cricket team is dedicated to following all regulations set forth by the International Cricket Council (ICC).

"BCCI's stand loud and clear that whatever guidelines of the ICC's Champions 2025 if they are regarding the Jersey logo, we will follow it. There was no such thing as we will violate any such guidelines. So whatever was going on in the media, I have seen it. I don't know where they have got that information. However, the BCCI has no reason to violate or not follow any of the guidelines. BCCI will follow the dress code and the logo of the champions of 2025 formulated by ICC," BCCI secretary told Sports Tak.
