According to the spokesperson, all 44 jails in Punjab will provide live coverage of the match, allowing prisoners to enjoy the thrilling contest.

The arrangements are not limited to regular prisons, children’s jails have also been equipped to broadcast the match live.

Secretary Interior Punjab, Noorul Amin Mengal, has directed the Inspector General of Prisons to ensure that necessary arrangements are made to facilitate the live broadcast of the match.

Pakistan and India are set for a high-voltage encounter of Champions Trophy 2025 in Dubai today (Sunday).

Green Shirts need to win today’s match to remain alive in the mini-world cup.

Pakistan’s title defense got off to a dismal start with a 60-run loss to New Zealand in the tournament opener. Another defeat would virtually end their campaign, making this match a “do or die” encounter for the Men in Green.

India, on the other hand, began their campaign on a strong note, securing a comprehensive six-wicket victory over Bangladesh.

With their sights set on the semifinals, Rohit Sharma’s men will look to build on their momentum and consolidate their position in the group.

The India-Pakistan rivalry is one of the most intense and closely watched in international cricket.
