The ICC Champions Trophy 2025 recently got the green signal for the hybrid model from the ICC

The ICC Champions Trophy 2025 recently got the green signal for the hybrid model. The tournament will be played in two nations, with most of the games set to be played in Pakistan, while the India games will be played in either UAE or Colombo, along with one semi-final and final.

This will be the first time India and Pakistan will be locking horns with each other after the T20 World Cup 2024. The two teams played each other at the Nassau County Cricket Ground in New York, which was won by the India National Cricket Team.

The ICC Champions Trophy 2025 schedule is all set to be announced soon by the Pakistan Cricket Board

The ICC Champions Trophy 2025 schedule is all set to be announced soon. The ICC recently confirmed that the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) will be announcing the schedule soon. The PCB recently announced the draft schedule for the same, but it had the India vs Pakistan game slated to be played on 3rd March.

Therefore, it is expected that the schedule of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 will be completely different from the draft schedule. The India vs Pakistan game in the tournament no doubt will be a big ticket clash as it has happened in the past and over the years.

India and Pakistan played in the final of the ICC Champions Trophy when the tournament was previously held in 2017. The tournament was played in England, and it saw Men in Green winning by dominating the Virat Kohli-led Indian team.

The ICC Champions Trophy was discontinued by the ICC after 2017

The ICC Champions Trophy was discontinued by the ICC after that and it will be comeback for the tournament this time around. The Pakistan National Cricket Team would be keen to defend their title. Last time they won under Sarfaraz Ahmed and the team will be captained by Mohammad Rizwan.

India, on the other hand, won the title last in 2013 under the leadership of MS Dhoni. They would be hoping Rohit Sharma to emulate what India did in the T20 World Cup 2024 and lift the title which will be played in February-March next year. It remains to be seen where will the India games be played in CT 2025.
