However, I hope that we will see an improvement.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Sources told <i>Geo News <\/i>that the ICC meeting was postponed due to the lack of response by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) to the demands put forward by the PCB.<\/p>\n<p>Pakistan is fighting its case at the ICC over the\u00a0long-standing dispute regarding the venue of the much-awaited Champions Trophy 2025 after India refused to send its team to Pakistan.<\/p>\n<p>A day earlier, sources claimed that Pakistan and India made a &#8220;breakthrough&#8221; on the matter of the event&#8217;s venue a day ago, agreeing to play their matches at neutral venues for ICC tournaments hosted by either one of them.<\/p>\n<p>The sources added that Pakistan and India were also engaged in ongoing discussions, with the ICC also being part of the talks, aimed at finding a solution and finalising the tournament&#8217;s schedule \u2014 which was being redrawn due to the hybrid model.<\/p>\n<p>The issues discussed by the stakeholders include those pertaining to logistics.<\/p>\n<p>The ICC meeting, noted the sources, would be held once the issues are finalised at the executive level.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, they also underscored the progress in the backdoor dialogue and said that the issues were close to being resolved.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The matters have started moving forward in a positive way [&#8230;.] The ICC is expected to make an announcement soon,&#8221; they added.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script type=\"text\/javascript\">\n            setTimeout(function(){\n                var
