From February 19 to March 9, 2025, the top eight rated men’s national teams will compete in the Champions Trophy. Bangladesh, India, Pakistan, and New Zealand are all in Group A. Australia, England, Afghanistan, and South Africa are all part of Group B at the same time.

Virat Kohli, who scored 84 runs, was the game’s MVP.
But in the second semifinal, which took place in Lahore, New Zealand defeated South Africa by 50 runs. Rachin Ravindra scored his fifth century in ICC competitions by assisting his team in reaching 362, which the bowlers then readily defended. The game’s best player was Ravindra. India defeated New Zealand by 44 runs while defending a score of 249 in their previous group stage encounter. There are many outstanding players on both teams, and the conclusion should be exciting.
