As per the same report, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) raised sharp objections against the trophy tour which led ICC to ask the PCB to cancel the tour in three PoK cities. The Pakistan Cricket Board planned the trophy tour for the much-anticipated eight-team competition, which is scheduled to start next year in Pakistan from February to March.
