India’s preparations for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 have encountered significant changes due to recent developments. The tournament, scheduled to be hosted in Pakistan from February 19 to March 9, 2025, will see India competing in Group A alongside Bangladesh, Pakistan, and New Zealand.

India’s Squad for the Champions Trophy 2025

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has announced the 15-member squad for the upcoming tournament. Notably, fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah has been ruled out due to a lower back injury sustained during the final Test against Australia in Sydney last month. His absence is a significant setback, given his pivotal role in India’s bowling attack.

Harshit Rana has been named as Bumrah’s replacement. Rana has shown promise in his recent outings, taking four wickets in his two ODIs against England this month.

Additionally, spinner Varun Chakaravarthy has been included in the squad, replacing batter Yashasvi Jaiswal, who was initially named in the provisional squad.

The updated 15-member squad is as follows:

  • Rohit Sharma (Captain)
  • Shubman Gill (Vice-Captain)
  • Virat Kohli
  • KL Rahul
  • Shreyas Iyer
  • Hardik Pandya
  • Rishabh Pant (Wicketkeeper)
  • Ravindra Jadeja
  • Axar Patel
  • Mohammed Shami
  • Mohammed Siraj
  • Harshit Rana
  • Kuldeep Yadav
  • Varun Chakaravarthy
  • Suryakumar Yadav

Key Players to Watch

  • Rohit Sharma: As captain and a prolific opener, Rohit’s leadership and batting prowess will be crucial for India’s success.
  • Virat Kohli: Renowned for his consistency and ability to chase targets, Kohli’s experience will be invaluable in high-pressure situations.
  • Harshit Rana: Stepping in for Bumrah, Rana’s recent performances have been promising, and he will aim to make a significant impact in the tournament.
  • Varun Chakaravarthy: Known for his mystery spin, Chakaravarthy can be a game-changer, especially on subcontinental pitches.
  • Hardik Pandya: As a dynamic all-rounder, Pandya’s contributions with both bat and ball will be vital for India’s campaign.

India’s Strengths and Challenges

India boasts a formidable batting lineup, with a blend of experienced players and emerging talents. The inclusion of versatile all-rounders and a diverse bowling attack adds depth to the squad.

However, the absence of Jasprit Bumrah is a significant challenge. His ability to deliver in crucial moments will be missed, and the onus will be on the remaining bowlers to step up.

Competing in Pakistan presents its own set of challenges, including adapting to local conditions and managing the pressures of playing in a high-stakes environment. India’s familiarity with subcontinental pitches may provide some advantage, but the team will need to be at their best to overcome formidable opponents in the tournament.
