Champions Trophy 2025: Team of the tournament picked by Test Match Special
Commentator Henry Moeran
Duckett (Eng), Ibrahim (AFG), Ravindra (NZ), Kohli (Ind), Axar (Ind), Latham (NZ, WK), Hardik (Ind), Azmatullah (AFG), Santner (NZ, Capt), Henry (NZ), Chakravarthy (Ind).
This depends heavily on the game of this fictional team – but given that the game has been distributed between the flat track in Pakistan and the turning surface in Dubai, I have played for teams for all seasons.
The rotations of the Axar Patel and Santner may be similar, but Varun Chakravarthy provides enough variations to be five rotators. Matt Henry is a brilliant guy at the seam, here is backed by Azmatullah Omarzai and Hardik Pandya, who have the ability to play 10 in each.
Kohli is a must-have for chasing masters, and Duckett accumulates the side of the highest stage. Ibrahim Zadran should be one of the ODI knocks on the 177 people in England.
