Eoin Morgan, Shane Watson Pick India As Favourite For Champions Trophy 2025

Their respective teams may not have ideal buildup to the Champions Trophy 2025 but Eoin Morgan and Shane Watson are hopeful that England and Australia would do well in the event while picking India as the top favourite. England, under a new coach in Brandon McCullum, were hammered by India in both the T20I and ODI series while Australia have been besieged by injuries losing four top players -- Pat Cummins, Josh Hazlewood, Mitchell Marsh and Mitchell Starc -- to injuries while Marcus Stoinis has announced a sudden retirement from the national team.

Kane Williamson's Incredible 6-Year Streak Ends After Flopping In Champions Trophy Opener vs Pakistan

New Zealand batter Kane Williamson broke his six-year streak of not registering a single-digit score in ODIs on Wednesday. The ace batter broke this record during the ICC Champions Trophy opener against Pakistan on Wednesday. Coming to bat at 39/1, Williamson could not put down the anchor, being caught behind on a Naseem Shah delivery by wicketkeeper Mohammed Rizwan for just one run in two balls. This is Kane's first single-digit score in ODIs since January 5, 2019, against Sri Lanka, where he scored just one run in nine balls.

12,000 Police Officers And Charter Flights: A Sneak-Peak Into Champions Trophy Security Measures

The 29-year-long wait of hosting an ICC event ends for Pakistan as the nation witnesses the opening clash between the hosts and New Zealand on Wednesday. Security has been one of the biggest concerns when it comes to international sporting events in Pakistan, especially after what happened with the Sri Lanka team in 2009. While the Indian team refused to travel to Pakistan for the event, the PCB has put in extra measures to ensure full security for other travelling teams.

"Like A Bad Dream": Terror Attack On Sri Lanka In Pakistan Revisited By Inzamam-Ul-Haq Ahead Of Champions Trophy

Pakistan will take the field on Wednesday, hoping to get their Champions Trophy 2025 campaign off to a winning start. Pakistan, who are hosting the tournament barring India matches (to be played in Dubai), were beaten by the Kiwis last week in the final of a tri-nation series, at the same venue. Pakistan last hosted an ICC event in 1996, the ODI World Cup alongside India and Sri Lanka. However, the event holds big significance for Pakistan. If everything goes as planned, then it will be a big step towards convincing the world that Pakistan is a safe place to play cricket.

"Worst Day Of My Life": Ex-PCB Director Recalls The Horrors Of 2009 Attack On Sri Lankan Team

Former captain Wasim Bari is glad to see the return of a global cricketing event to Pakistan through the ICC Champions Trophy, and hopes that the nightmarish days after the militant attack on Sri Lankan team in 2009 are forgotten forever. Pakistan could not host international cricket for 10 years after that gruesome day, and were forced to play their home matches in the UAE. Bari was serving as the Director in the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) under the Chairmanship of late Ejaz Butt when the attack took place on March 3 near the Liberty roundabout close to the Gaddafi stadium.

Australia SWOT Analysis, Champions Trophy: Battered By injuries, World Champions Can't Be Ignored

Two-time winners Australia will be on a quest to regain the Champions Trophy title after a gap of 15 years. They had won back-to-back titles in 2006 and 2009 but have failed to reach the finals in the 2013 and 2017 editions, after which the event was discontinued. For the 2025 edition, the reigning 50-over World Cup winners are placed in the four-team Group B which also includes England, South Africa, and Afghanistan. Australia will open their campaign with a clash with arch-rivals England at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore on February 22.
