Pakistan seeks neutral venue for 2026 Asian Champions Trophy

Pakistan has requested the Asian Hockey Federation (AHF) to relocate the 2026 Asian Champions Trophy from India or conduct its matches at a neutral venue, according to reports. The request comes despite Pakistan's stated willingness to compete against India in the tournament.
The move reflects ongoing geopolitical tensions between the two nations, which often influence sports scheduling and hosting arrangements. Pakistan's appeal to the AHF seeks an alternative arrangement to hosting matches on Indian soil.
