Champions Trophy

India was one of the eight teams that participated in the 2025 Champions Trophy held in Pakistan and United Arab Emirates from 19 February to 9 March 2025. [174] India qualified for the tournament after finishing in the top eight of the 2023 Cricket World Cup. [175] In November 2024, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) informed the International Cricket Council that India wouldn't travel to Pakistan for the tournament, citing security concerns. [176] On 19 December 2024, following an agreement between BCCI and PCB, the ICC in an update issued on India and Pakistan hosted matches at ICC events, established that the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 will be played across Pakistan and a neutral venue. [177]

India became the champions by defeating New Zealand in the final and also became the first team to win three Champions Trophy titles. [178]
