India last lifted the ICC Champions Trophy in 2013, and they will aim to reclaim the title in 2025. The team recently ended their ICC title drought by winning the T20 World Cup in 2024, hosted across the Caribbean and the USA. Their next target is the Champions Trophy 2025, a tournament they last won in a thrilling rain-curtailed final against England.
Of the 2013 Champions Trophy-winning squad, only Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, and Ravindra Jadeja remain active players. These seasoned cricketers are expected to play pivotal roles in 2025. However, Jasprit Bumrah’s fitness status remains uncertain, shifting the burden onto senior pacers Mohammed Shami and Mohammed Siraj.
India will open their campaign on February 20 against Bangladesh. The highly anticipated clash with Pakistan is set for February 23 in Dubai, followed by a match against New Zealand on March 2.
