Rishabh Pant Or KL Rahul? Who'll Be In India XI For Champions Trophy - Report Reveals 'Intriguing Clues'

Rishabh Pant's game-changing audacity or KL Rahul's quiet dependability? It is a tough call that head coach Gautam Gambhir and skipper Rohit Sharma will have to take when they zero-in on the batter-keeper's slot for the Champions Trophy during the ODI series against England starting Thursday.

India suffered a 1-3 defeat in the five-match series in Australia, bringing to an end their decade-long dominance in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. Gill also spoke on being made vice-captain, and how he could influence the leadership group of the team. Key players such as Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, KL Rahul, Rishabh Pant, and Gill himself are now set to return for the three-match ODI series against England before heading to Dubai for the all-important ICC Champions Trophy.

With the ICC Men's Champions Trophy 2025 just around the corner, India's chances of clinching the title have come under scrutiny, as uncertainty looms over the fitness of pace spearhead, and ICC 2024 Men's Cricketer of the Year, Jasprit Bumrah.

In-form mystery spinner Varun Chakravarthy has been included in the Indian ODI squad after his heroics in the just-concluded T20I series against England as the team management wants the KKR mystery spinner to "keep up the momentum". There is a fair chance that Chakravarthy might just replace one of the four specialist spinners in the Champions Trophy squad. It could be one among Kuldeep Yadav or Washington Sundar, who may be axed to accommodate Chakravarthy before the final squad is announced. A lot will depend on how he fares in the ODIs.
