  • The Champions Trophy is being revived after eight years with holders and hosts Pakistan playing New Zealand in the opening game of the ninth edition on Wednesday.

The article from Reuters outlines the details for the 2025 ICC Champions Trophy, which will be hosted by Pakistan. The tournament is scheduled to take place from February 19 to March 9, 2025, featuring eight teams divided into two groups. Group A includes Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, and New Zealand, while Group B comprises England, Australia, South Africa, and Afghanistan. The format includes a round-robin stage within each group, followed by semi-finals where the top two teams from each group will compete. The semi-finals are set for March 5 and 6, with the final on March 9. The article also mentions that the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has proposed a 'hybrid model' for hosting, allowing some matches to be played in neutral venues due to political tensions, particularly concerning India's participation. However, the final decision on this model is still pending.
