Two points will be awarded to each team for a victory, one for a tie or “no result,” and none for a loss. The semifinalists will be chosen based on net run rate if the points are tied.

What Are The Champions Trophy Venues?

Since the Indian government has refused to send its team to Pakistan, all of India’s matches will be held in Dubai International Cricket Stadium in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), while Pakistan will host nine of the 15 games at home.

India will compete in the first semifinal, which will take place in Dubai, considering they make it to the knockout stages. Additionally, the crucial game would be transferred from Lahore to Dubai if India advances to the final.

The National Stadium in Karachi, Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium, and Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore are the three Pakistani locations that will host the competition.
