Former all-rounder Irfan Pathan believes India's white-ball team is "settled" and backed the Rohit Sharma-led side to lift the upcoming Champions Trophy. The Champions Trophy is returning after more than seven years, and India will see it as an opportunity to add another ICC title to its title cabinet, especially after the T20 World Cup success in Barbados. In the last edition, India made its way to the final but fell short against its arch-rival Pakistan and succumbed to a 180-run defeat. This time around, India will look to go all the way and take centerstage with the trophy in India's grasp.

Former Indian cricket team captain MS Dhoni coming out to bat at No. 9 for Chennai Super Kings during the IPL 2025 match against Royal Challengers Bengaluru resulted in some criticism.
