Two-time ICC Champions Trophy winners Australia are eyeing another success in the upcoming ICC Champions Trophy 2025 tournament. Pakistan and the United Arab Emirates will host this tournament from 19 February to 9 March. Here, we are going through the details of Australia's fixtures and the complete squad for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 along with their key stats and records in the tournament history.
Australia have played two ICC Champions Trophy Finals and won both those. After winning the trophy in 2006 after beating the defending champions West Indies in the Final, the Aussies defended their title in 2009 after winning the Final against New Zealand. While Australia became the first team to win the ICC Champions Trophy, they are still the only team to successfully defend the title.
