Background
India vs Pakistan Champions Trophy LIVE: India and Pakistan will play each other in the Champions Trophy 2025, an ICC tournament, on Sunday, February 23. The Dubai International Cricket Stadium is expected to be completely packed, and television broadcast records will probably be broken. India's campaign got off to a smooth start on Wednesday as Rohit Sharma's team defeated Bangladesh by six wickets. However, earlier this week, Pakistan, the hosts, lost to New Zealand by 60 runs in the tournament's opening match in Karachi. In order to advance to the semi-final of Group A, defending champions Pakistan will need to win this match, while India would virtually guarantee a spot in the eight-team tournament's final four with a victory.
Out of 135 matches, Pakistan has a 73-57 head-to-head record against India in ODIs. Five games ended without a result. India is behind Pakistan 3-2 in the Champions Trophy. India will also try to forget the humiliating 180-run loss they suffered at the hands of Pakistan in the 2017 Champions Trophy final. India has, however, dominated this rivalry in ODI tournaments since that defeat, winning five straight meetings.
The India-Pakistan match is anticipated to surpass the previous record of 173 million TV viewers in 2023, with peak concurrent viewing exceeding 76 million on TV and 35 million on digital platforms. This Champions Trophy match will mark the first India-Pakistan meeting since 2017. Players like Babar Azam and Virat Kohli will be crucial in the high-stress game. With millions of cricket fans expected to watch, this India-Pakistan match is sure to be a memorable cricketing event.
