The Champions Trophy will be displayed for the public in Cox’s Bazar and Dhaka. As part of its global tour organized by the ICC, the stunning trophy arrived in Dhaka on Monday at 1:30 PM.
The first day of the tour was quiet, with no scheduled activities. On Tuesday, the trophy will kick off its official events, starting with a visit to Youth and Sports Advisor Asif Mahmud Sajib Bhuiyan in the morning.
Later on Tuesday afternoon, the trophy will travel to Cox’s Bazar. It will be on public display for the first time on Wednesday at Laboni Point Beach (in front of the Border Conference Center, Urmi) from 10 AM to 3 PM. The same day, it will return to Dhaka.
On Thursday, the trophy will be showcased at Bashundhara City Shopping Mall from 11 AM to 8 PM.
On Friday, it will head to the Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium in Mirpur. From 11 AM to 3 PM, it will be accessible to the men’s and women’s national cricket teams, current and former players, cricket officials, organizers, and journalists. Later that day, the trophy will leave Dhaka.
From Bangladesh, the trophy will travel to South Africa, followed by Australia, New Zealand, England, and finally to Pakistan, the host nation for the tournament.
The battle to win this trophy is scheduled for February-March next year. However, with India’s objection to touring Pakistan, the tournament’s schedule, venues, and other key decisions are still pending. Under the proposed hybrid model, India’s matches are likely to be played in the UAE or Sri Lanka.
