India has a strong history in the Champions Trophy, sharing the 2002 title with Sri Lanka and clinching the 2013 trophy under MS Dhoni. However, the team will look to overcome the heartbreak of their 2017 final loss to Pakistan.
The Champions Trophy 2025, featuring eight teams and 15 matches, will run from February 19 to March 9. The tournament will take place in Pakistan and the UAE under a hybrid model, with the India-Pakistan clash scheduled for February 23 in Dubai.
