Watch: ICC Champions Trophy 2025 official anthem song "Jeeto Baazi Khel Ke" by Atif Aslam

As the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 comes closer, starting on 19th February in a hybrid model between Pakistan and the UAE, the excitement is growing day by day, especially with the tournament returning after 8 years.

To add more excitement for the Champions Trophy 2025, ICC has released the official anthem song, sung by famous superstar singer Atif Aslam.

In this, Pakistan, as the hosting side, is showcasing its street markets and unique culture to the world. Hosting a global event is a moment of celebration for them, and they bring excitement through this anthem video.

The last edition of this tournament was played in 2017 in the UK, where Pakistan emerged as the champion. In this edition, the defending champions and hosting side are all set to perform well in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025.

For the Champions Trophy 2025, the hybrid model is chosen specifically for India, with all their matches played in the UAE due to political tensions between India and Pakistan.

If India qualifies, they will play in Semi-final 1, while Pakistan will play in Semi-final 2 if they qualify. The final’s location will depend on the teams, and if India reaches the final, it will be held in the UAE. To prepare for different match possibilities, two venues—one in Pakistan and one in the UAE—are being set up at the same time.

The tournament begins with eight teams divided into two groups, each playing three group-stage matches. The top two teams from each group will advance to the semifinals.

The ICC Champions Trophy will start in two weeks, on 19th February, with the opening match between Pakistan and New Zealand in Karachi. And the final of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 will be played on 9th March.
