Here’s how England can still qualify for the 2025 ICC Champions Trophy

[ad_1]

According to a new ICC rule, the top eight teams in the points table of the ongoing Men’s Cricket World Cup 2023 will progress to the 2025 Champions Trophy.

As the dust settles for the coveted World Cup, six teams have already booked their place for the Champions Trophy. The triumphant trio of India, Australia, South Africa, New Zealand along with the host nation Pakistan and the sixth-placed Afghanistan, have secured their spots. So now, only only two positions are up for grabs, intensifying the competition among the 2019 ODI World Cup champions England, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and Netherlands.

  3. If England loses to Pakistan, and both Bangladesh and Netherlands emerge victorious in their respective last games, England will fail to qualify.
