Champions Trophy: India Unmoved By Pak's Threats, ICC To Back BCCI? | First Sports With Rupha Ramani

Pakistan and India remain at loggerheads over the 2025 Champions Trophy. While India continues to stay reluctant to travel to Pakistan, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has agreed to a hybrid model but with certain conditions. The PCB wants a neutral venue even for the ICC events organised by India up until 2031. Pakistan has also demanded more share of ICC's revenue. India has rejected Pakistan's demand for a hybrid model. Who will ICC side with? Rupha Ramani explores why Pakistan might lose the battle yet again.

Also on the show, the Premier League organised a campaign to spread awareness and more inclusivity of the LBTQ+ community in sports. Despite the initiative, English football is stuck in a controversial state. Two players - Marc Guehi and Sam Morsy have both sparked controversy due to their religious beliefs. Is religion taking precedence over inclusivity? And former Manchester United interim manager Ruud Van Nistelrooy is hurt after being pushed out. The Leicester City manager opens up about the exit from the club. Did Manchester United make a big blunder by letting go of van Nistelrooy?
