Champions Trophy 2025: The ICC Champions Trophy 2025 has reached an exciting turn. A total of eight teams have been divided into two groups, from where the top two teams will make it to the semi-finals. India and New Zealand have already reached the last four from Group A, but the situation in Group B is not clear yet. It will be decided only after the last league match who India will face in the semi-finals.

Group A: India and New Zealand dominated

India and New Zealand have confirmed their semi-final tickets with their excellent performance in Group A. Both the teams won their two matches and occupied the top position. However, the final match of the league stage will be between India and New Zealand, which will decide which team will top Group A. Meanwhile, Pakistan and Bangladesh teams have been eliminated from the tournament, making the equation of this group almost clear.

Group B: Excitement at its peak

The situation in Group B is quite complicated. England is already out, but there is a tough fight between Australia, South Africa and Afghanistan to make it to the semi-finals. Australia and South Africa have three points each, while Afghanistan has two points.

Possible equation:

If Australia beats Afghanistan, it will reach the semi-finals with five points.

If Afghanistan wins, it will have four points, which can help it reach the semi-finals.

If South Africa wins the match between South Africa and England, it will also make it to the semi-finals.

If England beats South Africa, the decision will be based on net run rate.

India's probable opponent in the semi-finals

India will face the second best team of Group B in the semi-finals. This match will be played in Dubai on March 2. India can face anyone from Australia, South Africa or Afghanistan. Who will reach the semi-finals will be decided after the last league matches.

Waiting for the result

This phase of the Champions Trophy 2025 is going to be very exciting. Group A is almost decided, but the equation of Group B is still complicated. Cricket fans will have to wait for the last league matches to see who will clash in the semi-finals.
