India will face off against archrival Pakistan in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium on Sunday.
The Men in Blue enter the contest on the back of a convincing six-wicket win against Bangladesh in their campaign opener, while Pakistan heads into the match after losing to the Kiwis by 60 runs in the first match of the tournament.
Come Sunday, India will hope to banish the memories of the ICC Champions Trophy 2017 final, which it lost to Pakistan by 180 runs. Since that defeat, India has beaten Pakistan five consecutive times in the format.
However, Pakistan holds the edge against India in ODIs overall, and also has a favourable record in Champions Trophy history, with three wins in five matches.
