why not do this?

why dont they do this for the champions trophy. Players stay in India but play matches in Lahore Pakistan?

The reason I am saying is the Amristar India is only around 50Km away from Lahore Pakistan.

It's completely unworkable, TBH. The idea would never receive serious consideration.

Because, as Richard said, it's unworkable. There is no way that the idea would be seriously considered, and rightly so. It may seem like a reasonable thought, but there would still be security issues regarding the venues of the games.
