ICC Champions Trophy 2025: India vs Pakistan fixture is crucial for both teams

Dubai International Cricket Stadium in Dubai in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) is set to host the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 Group A match India vs Pakistan. It is an important encounter for both teams. Hosts and defending champions Pakistan started this tournament with a 60-run defeat against New Zealand in Karachi in the tournament opener. Meanwhile, India faced Bangladesh in their first game of the competition, where the two-time Champions Trophy winners claimed a six-wicket win. 

It is also a very special game, as both teams played in the Final of the previous ICC Champions Trophy edition (2017). In that fixture, Pakistan opener Fakhar Zaman scored a century after getting the life of his early dismissal, which was denied due to a no-ball from the Indian pacer Jasprit Bumrah. Pakistan scored 338/4, thanks to Fakhar Zaman's 114, and the defending champions India were all out for 158 runs, as Pakistan won by 180 runs. 

Coming back to the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, it is a must-win game for Pakistan, while India will almost secure their place in the Semi-finals by winning this match. Just like Pakistan fans, Indian fans are also ready to experience another India vs Pakistan epic clash.
