ICC Champions Trophy 2025: No Families Allowed for Team India: In a strict measure to prepare for the 2025 ICC Champions Trophy BCCI has decided against families accompanying the team members for the tournament. This is aimed at the minimization of any distractions. Thus allowing the players to concentrate fully on the tournament and their performance.
The tournament will start on February 19, 2025. India’s matches were shifted to Dubai, UAE, to ensure a neutral venue in the tense political relations between India and Pakistan. The Indian squad will face Bangladesh on February 20 and, in a high-voltage competition with Pakistan, on February 23. Both of which will happen in Dubai.
