Australia will be facing England In the fourth match of the ICC trophy in the current ICC 2025. The game should take place at the Gaddafi stadium in Lahore on Sunday, February 22.
Australia seeks to become the very first team to win the Champions Trophy twice. They won their second and last title of Champions Trophy in 2009 and will be desperate to end their long wait this year.
In the latest edition of the Champions Trophy played in 2017, Australia only underwent one defeat, but it was enough to throw them out of the competition. The defending world champions will be well aware of this and will seek to start their campaign on a winning note.
On the other hand, England looks at its very first title of Champions Trophy. The three lions have struggled to do well in ICC competitions lately. They had a bad outing in the 2023 World Cup where they finished seventh and barely managed to qualify for the Champions Trophy.
During the T20 2024 World Cup, England qualified for the semi-final before undergoing an overwhelming defeat against the possible winners of India. The team led by Jos Buttler will be eager to start their campaign on a good note. While the two teams are preparing for the match, we take a look at the weather report and pitch for the game.
