The Champions Trophy 2025 is heating up as England and Afghanistan prepare for a must-win encounter in the eighth match of the tournament. The crucial Group B fixture will take place at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore, Pakistan, on Wednesday, February 26.
Both teams enter this match desperate for a victory after suffering defeats in their opening encounters. England, coming off a loss against Australia, currently sits third in the Group B standings, while Afghanistan, who were outplayed by South Africa, find themselves at the bottom of the table.
With only the top two teams from each group advancing to the semifinals, a second consecutive loss would effectively eliminate either side from the tournament. The stakes couldn’t be higher, making this a true do-or-die clash for both teams.
So ahead of the much-awaited match, in this article, let's take a look at the weather update for this encounter.
