Champions Trophy 2025: The Indian team for Champions Trophy 2025 has been announced. A total of 8 teams are participating in this tournament. The squads of seven of these teams have been revealed. However, the team of host country Pakistan has not been announced yet. Meanwhile, even though 7 teams have been announced, there will still be an opportunity for anyone to make some changes in their team if they want to. Its date has also already been fixed by ICC. This means that the players who have not been selected in the Indian team for the Champions Trophy will have a chance, but it is not going to be that easy.
The team for the Champions Trophy was to be announced by January 12.
ICC had already announced regarding the Champions Trophy that all the participating teams will have to announce their squads by January 12. The England team came forward first. After this, the remaining teams were also announced one by one. However, the teams of India and Pakistan were not announced till January 12. BCCI had made it clear that the team will be declared by January 19. Same thing happened. On January 18, Chief Selector Ajit Agarkar presented the team in front of the media in Mumbai and in the presence of captain Rohit Sharma. A total of 15 players have been selected for this big ICC tournament this time.
If you want to make changes till February 12, it will be possible.
Meanwhile, the first match of the Champions Trophy will be played on 19 February. Now only one month is left in this. ICC had also said that whatever squads come, they will be preliminary. If teams want, they can make changes later. The last date for this has been fixed as 12th February i.e. a week before the start of the tournament. However, it is rare that teams make changes later on. The only situation where this happens is when a selected player gets injured. Otherwise, the team is selected after a lot of thinking, so this situation rarely occurs.
Definitely questions regarding Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Shami
Although BCCI has selected a very strong team. But there are definitely questions about Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Shami. While Jasprit Bumrah is not completely fit at the moment, Mohammed Shami is now returning after recovering from a long injury. Jasprit Bumrah has not even been selected for the series against England. Shami will test his fitness by playing in this series. There is no question about the rest of the team. That means, if Bumrah and Shami are fit then perhaps there will be no need for any changes in the team. But Mohammed Siraj, Sanju Samson and other players will also have the opportunity to get a chance if any player gets injured.
Indian team for Champions Trophy 2025: Rohit Sharma (captain), Shubman Gill (vice-captain), Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, KL Rahul, Hardik Pandya, Axar Patel, Washington Sundar, Kuldeep Yadav, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Shami, Arshdeep Singh, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Rishabh Pant and Ravindra Jadeja. .
