ICC Championship Trophy 2025 Schedule: The ICC Champions Trophy 2025 is going to be held next year under the hosting of Pakistan. Cricket fans are eagerly waiting for this prestigious tournament. It is also known as the "Mini World Cup", in which the top 8 teams of the world will participate and the excitement of every match will be at its peak. This will be the ninth edition of the Champions Trophy, which will be played in February-March 2025. After almost a decade, Pakistan will host a major international tournament.
