ICC Champions Trophy 2025 India Squad Announcement: Rohit Sharma reaches BCCI office in Mumbai for review meeting
According to the details, the Board of Control for Cricket in India will announce the squad of Team India for both England's tour to India and the ICC Champions Trophy 2025.
With just a day left before the ICC deadline to announce squads for the Champions Trophy 2025 – to be co-hosted by Pakistan and the UAE, Indian skipper Rohit Sharma arrived in Mumbai for the BCCI Review meeting on January 11.
According to the details, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) will announce the squad of Team India for both England's tour to India and the ICC Champions Trophy 2025.
Several reports stated that Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma would not play in the England series. The focus of the Indian team selection will be on the pace attack. With no update on Jasprit Bumrah's back injury and Mohammed Shami yet to play an international game in the last 14 months, it will be interesting to see whom the BCCI selectors pick.
Suryakumar not in squad!
Amid concerns about who BCCI may pick, former India star Aakash Chopra said, while picking his 15-member squad for the Champions Trophy, as NDTV quoted, "Suryakumar Yadav isn't there, but Shreyas Iyer is. Since the start of the World Cup, he has scored 620 runs in 15 innings, with two centuries, at a strike rate of 112 and an average of 52. Iyer is on fire."
KL Rahul in for ODIs vs England!
Initially rumoured to be rested for the white-ball series against England, KL Rahul was asked by the BCCI to play in the ODIs against England, according to TOI. If that happens, Rahul will get match practice ahead of the mega event.
