Pakistan will face India in a blockbuster clash in the group stage of next year's ICC Champions Trophy.
The ODI tournament is returning to the schedule in 2025 after an eight-year absence, with Pakistan winning the last edition in 2017.
Group A sees co-hosts Pakistan drawn against rivals India, as well as New Zealand and Bangladesh.
England, Australia, South Africa and Afghanistan will compete in Group B.
Pakistan will face India on February 23, with Dubai chosen as the neutral venue after India refused to travel to Pakistan due to ongoing political tensions between the two countries.

This means India, who have not played in Pakistan since 2008, will play all three group matches in the United Arab Emirates, plus the first semi-final on March 9, should they advance.
The final, which is set to take place in Lahore, would move to Dubai if India were to reach it.
England, who have never won the event, will face Australia in their first match on February 22.
The Champions Trophy will be the first global event Pakistan has hosted since 1996.
