First of all, let us tell you which players are almost certain to be selected for the Champions Trophy 2025. These include Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, Jaspreet Bumrah, Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja, Mohammad Siraj, KL Rahul, Rishabh Pant, Mohammad Shami (if he is fit), Yashasvi Jaiswal, Kuldeep Yadav and Washington Sundar.
These players are almost decided, who will be seen in blue jersey in any case. Also, the place of these players is decided. Where they will play. The remaining three vacancies are for the middle order, lower middle order and the fourth is for the bowler. There is competition between 7 players for these three positions.
3 vs 7-player match
It is known that Shreyas Iyer performed very well in the last ODI World Cup. He has shown good performance with his bat in the middle order. This is the reason why he has made a place as a reliable batsman. But he has been out of Team India for a long time, so his selection is not yet decided.
This is the reason why we can see a competition between Iyer and Tilak Verma as a middle-order batsman (Champions Trophy 2025). Apart from these, there is a competition between about 4 players for the lower middle order batsman who can also play the role of finisher.
From Nitish Reddy, Arshdeep to these players are included in the race
There is a battle between Nitish Kumar Reddy, Rinku Singh, Riyan Parag, and Shivam Dubey. These four players have impressed everyone with their performance. In such a situation, it will be interesting to see which of these players is given a chance as a finisher for the Champions Trophy 2025. Also, there is going to be a competition between Arshdeep Singh and Prasidh Krishna as the fourth bowler. Because three bowlers are already fixed in the Indian team. But as the fourth bowler, there is a competition between Krishna and Arshdeep. In this way, there is a competition between 7 players for a total of 3 posts.
