There is still a lot of time left for the start of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 and Team India has already been announced for this. A total of 13 players involved in the T20 World Cup have got a place in this team and only two players have managed to make a place from outside.

Let us tell you that this time India won the ICC T20 World Cup title under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma. After the team became the champion, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) is looking very happy and that is why they have not decided to change the team.

Champions Trophy is to be played in Pakistan

Pakistan has the hosting rights of Champions Trophy 2025 and it will be interesting to see whether Team India will visit the neighbouring country for this mega event or not.

India last visited Pakistan in 2008 during the Asia Cup and since then Team India has never visited Pakistan.

Pakistan was to host Asia Cup 2023 but Team India refused to go there and this tournament was played on a hybrid model. India played all its matches in Sri Lanka.

Jai Shah made a big announcement

Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) secretary Jay Shah looked very happy after winning the T20 World Cup and has confirmed that Team India's squad for the Champions Trophy is going to be almost the same as the T20 World Cup. In such a situation, it can now be guessed that only a few changes are possible in the team for next year's tournament.

If we look at the T20 World Cup 2024 team, Shivam Dubey is one such name who can be dropped from the team and in his place opener Shubman Gill can get a chance. Apart from this, KL Rahul can be included in the team in place of Sanju Samson. In such a situation, only two changes can be seen in the team at present.

Probable Indian Team for Champions Trophy 2025:

Rohit Sharma (captain), Shubman Gill, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Virat Kohli, Suryakumar Yadav, Rishabh Pant (wicketkeeper), KL Rahul (wicketkeeper), Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Yuzvendra Chahal, Arshdeep Singh, Mohammed Siraj, Jaspreet Bumrah.
