The International Cricket Council made late changes to their trophy tour ahead of the Champions Trophy. The ICC announced a revised schedule for the trophy tour after the Board of Control for Cricket in India objected to the trophy being paraded in Muzaffarabad, Skardu and the Hunza Valley.

BCCI honourary secretary Jay Shah, who is set to become the new ICC head objected to specific venues of the trophy tour which fall in the Pakistan Occupied Kashmir.

On Saturday, the ICC announced its ‘Global Trophy Tour’ for the ICC Men’s Champions Trophy. The ICC stated that the tour will kick off in Islamabad.

Popular landmarks where the trophy will be displayed on the opening day of its tour in Islamabad are Daman-e-Koh, Faisal Mosque, and the Pakistan Monument where it will be accompanied by Pakistan cricket icon Shoaib Akhtar.
