3. Jasprit Bumrah

Jasprit Bumrah is currently in top form, making him India's best hope for success in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. Following his exploits in the ICC T20 World Cup, when his match-winning stints earned India's victory, Bumrah has maintained his success in red ball cricket. This competition also provides an opportunity for atonement, as he hopes to erase memories of India's defeat in the 2017 ICC Champions Trophy final.

With his devastating yorkers, unplayable bouncers, and unrivalled poise, Bumrah will be India's talisman in the UAE conditions. Bumrah has taken 149 wickets in 89 ODIs, demonstrating his ability to perform under duress, while in the UAE, he has eight wickets in just four matches at an economy of just 3.67.
