The 2025 Champions Trophy, hosted by Pakistan in February-March, will reportedly feature the highly anticipated India-Pakistan match on March 1 and the England-Australia clash on February 22.

The schedule for the Champions Trophy 2025, set to be hosted by Pakistan in February-March, has reportedly been confirmed. The highly anticipated India-Pakistan match is scheduled for March 1 at Lahore’s Gaddafi Stadium, which will also host the England-Australia clash on February 22. Rawalpindi and Karachi will host multiple matches during the tournament.

According to reports from The Telegraph, the tournament opener will feature hosts Pakistan against New Zealand on February 19. The last group stage match between England and South Africa will take place in Rawalpindi on March 2. The final will be held in Lahore, with India playing all their matches at this venue.

The eight teams are divided into two groups: Group A includes Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, and New Zealand, while Group B features Afghanistan, Australia, England, and South Africa. This event marks Pakistan’s first ICC hosting since the 1996 World Cup.

India’s participation in Pakistan remains uncertain due to the rivalry between the two nations. BCCI Secretary, Jay Shah, indicated that the Indian government makes such travel decisions. India’s matches were moved to Sri Lanka in the previous Asia Cup. If India opts out, alternative venues like the UAE may be considered.

Pakistan has strategically scheduled India’s group-stage matches against Bangladesh, New Zealand, and Pakistan in Lahore to simplify logistics and encourage Indian fans to attend. Among all the teams, India is the only one not required to switch venues between group-stage games, which could facilitate easier travel and support from Indian fans.
