Champions Trophy Squad: The BCCI has announced its team for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. The team has a mix of young and experienced players. However, the Indian team looks balanced in all ways. But the defeat in the last edition is still bothering the Indian team and cricket fans. By correcting some of the mistakes made in 2017, the Indian team can make up for it by winning the championship in 2025.
Excellent all-rounder players should be included on the team.
All-rounder players like Ravindra Jadeja, Axar Patel, Hardik Pandya, and Washington Sundar have been included in the team. These are such players who can contribute to the team with both ball and bat. In 2017, only Hardik Pandya and Jadeja were part of the team as all-rounders. Apart from them, When comparing both tournaments, the all-rounder lineup of the Indian team is much stronger this time.

Strong Bowling Unit:
Compared to 2017, the bowling unit of the Indian team also looks very strong. Jasprit Bumrah is in good form. His back injury before the tournament is a matter of concern for cricket fans. Apart from him, Mohammed Shami also returned to the team. He is capable of giving a tough time to the batsmen. Both the bowlers have a lot of experience. Apart from these, spinners like Kuldeep Yadav, Axar Patel, Ravindra Jadeja and Washington Sundar are also very accurate. Indian bowling can prove to be crucial in the Champions Trophy 2025.
Strong middle order:
If we talk about the middle order of the Indian team, it looks quite organized. The presence of excellent players like Shreyas Iyer, Rishabh Pant, KL Rahul, Virat Kohli and Hardik Pandya in the middle order is making the team very strong. Compared to 2017, the middle order of the Indian team is currently very strong. At that time, excellent players like Yuvraj Singh, and MS Dhoni were in the team but they were not in their best rhythm. Hardik Pandya was also in the team as a new player at that time. Therefore, the best performance was not expected from him. At this time all the players are looking very strong. Therefore, the Indian team is much stronger than before in this tournament. Additionally, the team has enough experience to handle pressure during important games in the tournament.
