Champions Trophy 2025 / Indian bowling is unmatched even without Bumrah, getting applause in PAK too

Champions Trophy 2025: The Indian cricket team has secured its place in the final of the Champions Trophy 2025. In the semi-final match, India defeated Australia by 4 wickets to enter the final of the fourth consecutive ICC tournament. The bowlers have played an important role in this success of the Indian team, who have performed brilliantly throughout the tournament.

Strong performance of Indian bowlers

The Indian team has all-outed the opposition team in all the four matches played so far. Even the big batsmen were seen struggling in front of the sharp bowling of the Indian bowlers. Indian bowling also performed brilliantly in the last two ICC tournaments—2023 ODI World Cup and 2024 T20 World Cup. This brilliant bowling is also being appreciated in Pakistan.

Veterans praised Indian bowlers

Former Pakistani cricketers Wasim Akram and Waqar Younus praised the Indian bowlers. Wasim Akram said in a sports show, "When Mohammad Shami was included in the team for the Champions Trophy, many experts questioned him. But he made the best use of his experience and performed brilliantly. He took 5 wickets in the first match and also took 3 wickets in the semi-finals." Apart from this, he also praised Varun Chakraborty, who played an important role in Team India's victory by bowling brilliantly against Australia.

Mohammad Shami - India's key bowler

Mohammad Shami is proving to be the backbone of the Indian bowling attack in this tournament. He has taken 8 wickets in 4 matches so far. In the semi-final match, he took 3 important wickets for 48 runs in 10 overs. He dismissed Cooper Connolly, Steve Smith and Nathan Ellis. Especially Steve Smith's wicket proved to be the turning point of the match, as he was playing dangerously after scoring 73 runs. Varun Chakravarthy's impressive performance

Varun Chakravarthy has played only 2 matches so far in the Champions Trophy 2025, but he has taken 7 wickets to his name. He also took 2 wickets against Australia, including the important wickets of Travis Head and Ben Dwarshuis. Travis Head's wicket was very important for the Indian team, as he could emerge as the biggest threat.

Preparation for the final

The Indian team would now like to maintain its excellent form in the final. The performance of the bowlers has become the biggest strength for the Indian team, and if they continue to perform like this, then India's winning another ICC title can be considered almost certain.

Conclusion

The Indian cricket team has maintained its tremendous form by reaching the final of the Champions Trophy 2025. The excellent performance of the bowlers has played an important role in taking the team to this point. Now it will be interesting to see whether Team India is able to maintain the same rhythm in the final and win the trophy or not.
