Nearly three decades later, the ICC tournament was organized in Pakistan, but it proved to be a worse dream for the Pakistan team and their fans. In the first match of the Champions Trophy 2025, which started on Wednesday, February 19, hosts Pakistan suffered a host to New Zealand. New Zealand scored a huge score of 320 runs thanks to the magnificent centuries of Tom Latham and Will Young. In response, Pakistan’s team could score only 260 runs due to their slow and weak batting and lost by 60 runs.
