India schedule in Champions Trophy 2025: ICC Champions Trophy 2025 will be played in a hybrid model, with matches hosted across Pakistan and UAE. Scheduled from February 19 to March 9, the marquee ICC tournament will feature 15 matches among eight teams over 19 action-packed days.

The International Cricket Council (ICC) recently announced Champions Trophy 2025 complete schedule.

The eight teams participating in ICC Champions Trophy 2025 have been divided into two groups of four teams each: Group A and Group B.

Under the hybrid hosting arrangement, India, placed in Group A alongside Pakistan, New Zealand, and Bangladesh, will play all its matches at UAE's Dubai International Stadium. India begins its campaign against Bangladesh on February 20, followed by the much-anticipated clash against Pakistan on February 23, and concludes the group stage with a match against New Zealand on March 2.

Group B features Afghanistan, Australia, England, and South Africa, with their matches distributed among Pakistani venues. The first semifinal, along with all India-related games, will take place in Dubai.

In Pakistan, matches will be held across Rawalpindi, Lahore, and Karachi, with each venue hosting three group-stage games. Lahore will stage the second semifinal and the final unless India qualifies. If India advances to the final, the venue will shift to Dubai in line with the hybrid model.

The tournament final is set for March 9, with reserve days in place for both semifinals and the final. ICC Champions Trophy 2025 matches will begin at 2:00 PM Pakistan Standard Time (2:30 PM IST).

The hybrid model for hosting ICC matches will be in effect from 2024 to 2027. During this period, all India-Pakistan encounters in ICC tournaments will be played at neutral venues. This means neither team will travel to the other's country for matches, ensuring their clashes take place only on neutral grounds.
