Champions Trophy 2025 will be organized in Pakistan this time. Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) is already busy preparing for this ICC event. Let us tell you that ICC is likely to release its schedule soon. But the discussion regarding its schedule has already become very intense.
Will the Indian team go to Pakistan?
BCCI has already made it clear that the decision regarding Team India’s visit to Pakistan will be taken in consultation with the Government of India. India last played the Asia Cup final in Pakistan in 2008 and lost to Sri Lanka by 100 runs in Karachi. However, Pakistan had toured India for the ODI World Cup at the end of 2023. But it is unlikely that India will do the same for the 2025 Champions Trophy.
When and with whom will India clash?
As of now, it is expected that India will play all its group matches in Lahore, and if the Indian team visits Pakistan, then India’s match could be against arch-rivals Pakistan on March 1. According to reports, the round-robin phase will end on March 2, the two semi-finals will be held on March 5 and 6 in Karachi and Rawalpindi respectively, while the final will be held on March 9 in Lahore.
Here is the predicted squad for India in the 2025 Champions Trophy:
Rohit Sharma (Captain), Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, Rinku Singh, KL Rahul, Rishabh Pant, Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Shami, Prasidh Krishna, Arshdeep Singh
