The Pakistan Cricket Board: Pakistan opener Fakhar Zaman expressed his disappointment after being ruled out of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 due to an oblique injury.

Fakhar suffered the injury while fielding during Pakistan’s tournament opener against New Zealand in Karachi. Though he later returned to bat, his discomfort was evident as he struggled during his 24 off 41 balls. The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) initially stated that Fakhar was being monitored for a muscular sprain, but further assessments confirmed the severity of the injury.
