Team India has landed in Dubai for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. The first group of players took off from Mumbai’s Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport on Saturday, with many fans gathering to cheer them on.
After a three-hour flight, the team arrived in Dubai and received a warm welcome. In a video shared by BCCI, Indian stars were seen all smiles as they were greeted warmly.
India will play all their matches at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium since their government did not grant permission for them to travel to Pakistan, the tournament's host nation.
The ICC Champions Trophy 2025 will kick off on February 19, with Pakistan taking on New Zealand in Karachi. India have been placed in Group A alongside Pakistan, New Zealand, and Bangladesh. Their first match is scheduled for February 20 against Bangladesh.
The much-awaited India vs Pakistan match will take place on Sunday, February 23, while their final group-stage game will be against New Zealand on March 2. India has a strong history in this tournament, having won the title in 2013 and finishing as runners-up in 2017 after losing to Pakistan in the final.
India’s Goal For Champions Trophy
India are coming into the tournament with strong momentum, having recently secured a 3-0 ODI series win against England. With Rohit Sharma leading the team, India are aiming for their third consecutive Champions Trophy final and will be looking to bring the trophy home this time.
