"Out And Out...": India Given Heavy 'Favourites' Tag For Champions Trophy By Ex-World Cup Winners

India will be the “favourites” to win the Champions Trophy despite the absence of ace fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah, believe former players Eoin Morgan and Shane Watson. A vital cog in India's title winning campaign in last year's T20 World Cup, Bumrah will miss the eight-team Champions Trophy which got underway on Thursday, but both Morgan and Watson believe Rohit Sharma's team has the necessary firepower to win the title. “To do the runners and riders, the side that's the front-runner, best positioned across the squads, I would say India… out and out favourites,” Morgan said during the International Masters League's Captain's Day event here on Wednesday.

Watch: Mohammad Rizwan's Gesture After Pakistan Star Concedes 16 In 1 Over vs New Zealand Goes Viral

Pakistan's start in the Champions Trophy 2025 was not at all worth remembering. Their famed bowling line-up came under pressure. Fluent hundreds by opener Will Young and skipper Tom Latham powered New Zealand to a competitive 320 for five against hosts and defending champions Pakistan in the Champions Trophy opener on Wednesday. Young compiled an important innings of 107 off 113 balls, while Latham remained unbeaten on 118. Glenn Phillips then blazed away to a 39-ball 61 to prop up the Kiwi innings at the National Stadium. Young struck 12 fours and one six, while Latham batted through the innings to strike 10 boundaries and three maximums. Young played anchor after Pakistan elected to field first and had New Zealand reeling at 40 for two and then 73 for three in the 17th over.

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.

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.

The Champions Trophy 2025 is a landmark tournament for Pakistan cricket with the nation hosting a major ICC tournament for the first time in nearly three decades. However, the first impression may not be up to the mark, with one noticeable thing during the opening game between Pakistan and New Zealand.
