ICC left red-faced as Pakistan's name disappears from Champions Trophy logo during India vs Bangladesh live broadcast

During the live broadcast of the India vs Bangladesh match in the Champions Trophy 2025, there was a visible error in the logo where Pakistan's name was missing. The ICC faced embarrassment when the name of the original host country was not displayed as it was supposed to be. This mistake was noticed during the match at the Dubai International Stadium, despite the logo being correctly displayed during the tournament opener in Karachi. Pakistan's absence from the logo during the match between India and Bangladesh raised concerns and left the ICC red-faced.

This led to widespread speculation and backlash on social media. It all started when the Indian government did not give a green signal for Team India's travel to Pakistan for the Champions Trophy. The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), and the ICC deliberated extensively regarding the venue of the Champions Trophy. After several rounds of meetings, all parties finally agreed on a hybrid model, with Dubai selected as the venue for all of India's matches.

The tussles didn't end there. Just before the start of the tournament, reports of India's Champions Trophy jersey missing Pakistan's name as the original host of the tournament started doing the rounds, which was then rubbished by BCCI.

ICC provides clarification for missing Pakistan name

Things started to take a similar turn after the broadcast of India vs Bangladesh match. This time, however, ICC was swift to react. As a report Geo TV report, an ICC spokesperson clarified that Pakistan's name was missing from the broadcast logo of India vs Bangladesh due to a technical glitch. He also assured that all matches featuring India would feature the official logo with Pakistan's name during the broadcast.

“The omission was due to a graphics-related technical issue, which will be rectified from tomorrow. It was not possible to change the logo during the match.”

The ICC official further clarified that Pakistan’s name on the logo was visible in the social media clips as the glitch was limited to broadcast.

India and Pakistan will square off in the next Group A match in Dubai on Sunday. It has turned out to be a must-win game for Pakistan after they lost their opening match to New Zealand by 60 runs.
