The 2025 ICC Champions Trophy will feature a total of 8 teams only. The tournament will be played in the ODI format. Bangladesh has not yet qualified for the Champions Trophy, as a win over India would push the Netherlands above them. The Netherlands will face India in their last group game of the ICC ODI World Cup 2023. They have to win that game on Sunday to knock Bangladesh out of eighth place.
Full-member nations like West Indies and Zimbabwe are automatically out of the race as they failed to qualify for the 2023 World Cup. Sri Lanka are out of the Champions Trophy 2025 too as ICC has suspended Sri Lankan cricket board and additionally they have failed to perform in the ongoing World Cup. They finished on the 9th spot with only 2 victories out of their nine group games.
