Indian team has already started their preparations in Dubai for the upcoming big tournament, the Champions Trophy. For many, it’s like a mini World Cup as all the top 8 teams are set to compete for the prestigious silverware. The Champions Trophy is making a comeback in the ICC tournament schedule after a long 8-year break.
The last edition was held in 2017, where India, who were the runners-up, lost to their neighbours Pakistan, who won the trophy. This remains a bitter memory for Indian fans and the team. India was doing everything right but ultimately fell short of winning the trophy for the third time, having won it in 2013 by defeating England and co-winning it in 2002 alongside Sri Lanka. Now, with positive memories and a focus on removing the bad ones, they are set for a fresh edition, and everyone will be looking to do well. Take a look at all the details, from their squad to venue, schedule, and live streaming options.
India Squad for Champions Trophy
Rohit Sharma (c), Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, KL Rahul, Rishabh Pant, Hardik Pandya, Axar Patel, Washington Sundar, Kuldeep Yadav, Harshit Rana, Mohd. Shami, Arshdeep Singh, Ravindra Jadeja, Varun Chakaravarthy.
Venue for India’s Champions Trophy 2025 Matches
India is set to play all their matches at Dubai International Stadium. Apart from the group matches, if they qualify for the knockout games, they will play at the same venue. Initially, there was talk about whether India would go to Pakistan to play the Champions Trophy or not, but gradually, things became clearer, and now all of India’s matches are scheduled to be in Dubai. This will also be the first time the ICC Champions Trophy is being held in a hybrid setup.

India’s camp will start their Champions Trophy 2025 campaign with their first match against Bangladesh on 20th February, a team they have a dominant record against. This will be followed by a highly anticipated match against Pakistan on 23rd February. Against the Shaheens, India has enjoyed an impressive record, especially in ODI cricket. Whenever both teams have met in the past, the Men in Blue have come out on top.
India’s final group match will be on 2nd March, where they will take on New Zealand. India will need to make sure things go well against the Black Caps, as they are known to give their best in ICC tournaments. They have done exceptionally well against India in the past, but it’s also worth noting that India broke the jinx in the last ODI World Cup semifinal by defeating them in a high-pressure game in Mumbai. Therefore, we can expect India to do well once again in this Champions Trophy as well.
