IND vs PAK Champions Trophy 2025: The India-Pakistan cricket rivalry never ceases to stir intense emotions among fans, and ICC Champions Trophy 2025 is set to reignite the excitement.

The tournament kicks off on February 19, with the much-anticipated India vs Pakistan showdown scheduled for February 23, 2025.

IND vs PAK Champions Trophy 2025 match on February 23 will be the first meeting between the two teams since their face-off in T20 World Cup 2024, adding another chapter to their storied rivalry. As fans eagerly await IND vs PAK Champions Trophy 2025 high-stakes clash, both teams will aim to etch their mark in history.

According to the recently announced Champions Trophy 2025 schedule by ICC, India and Pakistan are grouped together in Group A, alongside New Zealand and Bangladesh

While Pakistan was initially set to host the tournament all alone, Board of Control for Cricket in India's (BCCI) firm stance against traveling to Pakistan has led to a hybrid model being adopted, with Team India's matches played at neutral venues.

Under this arrangement, the highly anticipated India vs Pakistan group-stage clash will take place in Dubai on February 23. However, this may not be the only showdown between the two arch-rivals in the tournament, as both teams have the potential to meet again in the knockout stages.

Should both India and Pakistan progress beyond the group stage and then win in their respective semifinal matches, fans could be treated to a thrilling India-Pakistan final in ICC Champions Trophy 2025, set for March 9.

Under the hybrid model for ICC Champions Trophy 2025, Rohit Sharma-led India will play all their matches in Dubai. India's campaign begins with a match against Bangladesh on February 20, followed by the much-anticipated clash against Pakistan on February 23. They will wrap up their group stage with a game against New Zealand on March 2.
