Champions Trophy aka the ‘mini world cup’ is set to make its return after a gap of nearly eight years. Eight teams have made the cut for the knockout tournament including India, Pakistan, Australia, England, New Zealand, South Africa, Afghanistan and Bangladesh. The tournament schedule announcement was delayed due to a stand-off between BCCI and PCB after the former refused to send the Indian team across the border for the marquee competition citing security concerns. After much debate, PCB agreed to a Hybrid Model which will allow India to play all their matches (including if they qualify for the semis and the final) at a neutral venue (Dubai).
The teams reportedly have to submit their provisional squads to the International Cricket Council (ICC) by January 12. So far, only two teams have confirmed their squads including England and New Zealand. More squads are expected to be revealed today or in the coming days. All teams though will be allowed to make changes to their respective squads till February 12.
The tournament starts from February 19 when hosts and defending champions Pakistan take on New Zealand in Karachi. India begin their campaign against Bangladesh on February 20 in Dubai. The final will be held on March 9.
