India will win the ICC Champions Trophy in 2025, according to former Australia captain Michael Clarke. According to Michael Clarke, Australia and India will face off in the championship match, with India winning by the slimmest of margins—just one run.
Note that Australia crushed Indian hearts with a decisive victory in the 2023 ODI World Cup final, the last time the two well-known teams faced off in a 50-over ICC tournament. But Clarke is convinced that the Men in Blue will reverse the situation this time.
Australia will likely play India in the Champions Trophy final, in my opinion. In reality, I believe India will win the Champions Trophy, but I still want Australia to win. As of right now, they are the world’s top ODI squad.
In my opinion, India will defeat Australia by one run in the final, Michael Clarke.
The 43-year-old concentrated more on India’s advantages and capabilities, particularly its spinners, who he believes can excel in Dubai’s environment. Clarke also gave Rohit Sharma a lot of respect, saying that if India wins, he might end up being the tournament’s top run scorer. Clarke is confident that the Indian captain would play a significant role in the Champions Trophy after he recently found his form again, hitting a fast-paced century against England in Cuttack.
“There’s no denying that Rohit Sharma is back to his best. He’s hitting the ball so well, as seen by the century he made in Cuttack before to CT 2025. He plays a significant part, particularly under those circumstances. He must maximize the powerplay and play with that aggressive mindset. I simply believe that he is that excellent of a player, but he will take chances. If India were to win the Champions Trophy and Rohit Sharma was the top run scorer, I wouldn’t be shocked,” Michael Clarke continued.
