Pakistan’s cricket season heats up with a packed home schedule leading to the 2025 Champions Trophy. Bangladesh kicks things off with a 2-Test series in August. England, West Indies, South Africa, and New Zealand join the party later, with a historic ODI tri-series adding spice in February. Karachi, Multan, and Rawalpindi will host most matches, with Lahore’s Gaddafi Stadium undergoing renovations for the Champions Trophy.
Beyond home soil, Pakistan will tour Australia, Zimbabwe and South Africa for Tests, ODI and T20I series. The nine Tests at home contribute to the World Test Championship, with Pakistan aiming to climb the table for a potential shot at the final at Lord’s in June 2025.
