ICC Champions Trophy 2025 is starting from 19 February 2025. The first match of this tournament will be between the hosting team of Pakistan and New Zealand. At the same time, the Indian team (Team India) will start this tournament with a match against Bangladesh. This time the hosting of the tournament is in the hands of Pakistan (Pakistan Cricket Team), but Team India has refused to go to Pakistan, due to which the Indian team (Team India) is going to play this tournament in Dubai in a hybrid model.
Before the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, Team India has re-announced its team and made 2 changes in the team. Jasprit Bumrah and Yashasvi Jaiswal have been discharged from the Indian team. At the same time, Varun Chakraborty and Harshit Rana have entered Team India.
After the exit of veteran Indian team player Jasprit Bumrah, Team India's bowling has become a bit weak. It was on the strength of Jasprit Bumrah that India won the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 title. However, now that Jasprit Bumrah is out, let's know what will be the playing 11 of the Indian team.
The command of the Indian team will once again be in the hands of Rohit Sharma. At the same time, Shubman Gill has been made the captain of Team India for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. At the same time, both of them have been given the responsibility of opening for Team India. Apart from this, Virat Kohli at number 3 and Shreyas Iyer at number 4 will be seen playing for India.
These players can get a place as an all-rounder and bowler
KL Rahul is sure to get a chance in the Indian team as a wicketkeeper. Indian captain Rohit Sharma has given him a chance against England in 3 consecutive matches. At the same time, Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja can be seen playing in the team as an all-rounder. Kuldeep Yadav can be given a chance in the Indian team as the second spinner, because he has more experience than Washington Sundar and Varun Chakraborty.
Apart from this, Mohammed Shami, Harshit Rana and Arshdeep Singh can be given a chance as 3 fast bowlers in Team India, while if the pitch is helpful for spinners, then Axar Patel can be seen playing in place of Harshit Rana.
