The ICC Champions Trophy 2025 recently got a nod ahead to be played in the hybrid model. As per that, all the games of the India National Cricket Team, along with one semi-final and final if they reach, will be played in Dubai, while the rest of the games will be played in Pakistan across three venues.
The ICC Champions Trophy 2025 will be played from 19th February, and the final is scheduled to take place on 9th March. It will be for the first time since 2017 that the tournament will be played and will see 8 teams fighting for the silverware.
