After winning the ICC T20 World Cup, Rohit Sharma intends to capture another trophy. Hitman, who has won the Champions Trophy as a player, now wants to do this feat as a captain. In 2013, Rohit Sharma played an important role in the victory of the Indian team. Team India dominated the 2023 ODI World Cup with a brilliant game, although they lost in the final. Immediately after this, Rohit led the team to victory in the T20 World Cup. Just before the Champions Trophy, India cleanseed England by defeating them 3-0 in the ODI series at home.

26-year-old left-handed batsman Nazmul Hussain Shanto will take over the captaincy of Bangladesh in the Champions Trophy 2025. This player got the team's captaincy at a time when the team was going through a phase of change. The political atmosphere in the country is bad and senior players had to be out. It will be interesting to see whether Shanto will be able to do wonders by winning the first ICC trophy for the team.

Mitchell Santner, one of New Zealand's most trusted all-rounders, will lead the team to victory as captain in his first ICC event. Before the start of the tournament, the team played an amazing game and defeated the host team in the tri-series held in Pakistan and captured the trophy. New Zealand has consistently performed well in ICC tournaments. This team is considered a dark horse.

Pakistan captain Mohammad Rizwan would like to repeat the same feat for the Champions Trophy on home ground as Sarfaraz Ahmed did last time. The host team will intend to win this trophy for the second consecutive time. Rizwan has led his team to historic series wins in Australia and South Africa. This team is entering the tournament with great form. The experience of playing on home ground makes Pakistan even more dangerous.

In the last few years, the Afghanistan team has made big teams sweat. The team that defeated Pakistan and England in the 2023 ODI World Cup was close to defeating Australia. 30-year-old left-handed batsman Hasmatullah Shahidi will be seen captaining Afghanistan in the Afghanistan Champions Trophy. The team full of enthusiastic players has a lot of experience of playing international matches. A star spinner like Rashid Khan is with the team. It is difficult to say whether the team will win the trophy or not, but the team is staking a claim for the semi-finals.

The injury-hit Australia team had to change the captain of the Champions Trophy at the last moment. Steve Smith has been made the captain of the team for this tournament after Pat Cummins was ruled out due to injury. This player also captained the team in the 2017 Champions Trophy.

Wicketkeeper-batsman Jos Buttler, who is in explosive form, will be seen captaining England in the Champions Trophy. The team's performance has been very poor in the last few years. In the 2023 ODI World Cup, this team had to be eliminated in the first round after losing to Afghanistan. The 2019 ODI World Cup champion team won the T20 World Cup in 2022. England is waiting for their first Champions Trophy win.
