- India vs Pakistan Live Score, ICC Champions Trophy 2025: Hardik Pandya removed Babar Azam to deny him his bright start after India were given an early setback as Mohammed Shami walked off the field reporting pain in his leg.
India vs Pakistan Live Score, ICC Champions Trophy 2025:
Pakistan, having made a promising beginning, lost 2 early wickets, with Hardik Pandya getting rid of Babar Azam and Axar Patel’s miraculous direct hit getting Imam-ul-Haq out. Babar was playing in scintillating touch, scoring 23 off mere 25 deliveries, hitting five boundaries at a brisk pace. However, before he could cause more harm to India, Hardik Pandya got the Pakistan batter caught behind. Hardik was annoyed with himself for conceding a four on the last ball, but what a redemption. One got two as Imam requested a bad run and paid the price for it.
The two wickets are timely for India, particularly after Mohammed Shami bowled only 2 overs before the India pacer reported pain in his leg. After the physio examined him well, Shami finished the over but went off the field to receive some treatment. This was after he started India’s proceedings with an 11-ball over, conceding 5 wides. Not good news for India, with Babar Azam setting the tone early with two sharp boundaries.
As Ravi Shastri built up the India vs Pakistan match the way only he can, making the Indian and Pakistan captains split their sides while being in the company of legendary David Boon. Mohammad Rizwan lost the toss and decided to bat. Rohit Sharma, who’s proceeded with an unchanged Playing XI, maintained that he was comfortable bowling first. Not as if he had a say in the matter to begin with. But the fact that Rohit did not seem too downhearted when losing the toss meant he is not too fussed about it.
It’s the big one. It’s the one that everyone looks out for. The one everyone whips out a big red sketch pen for and marks the date when the fixtures for any tournament are released. The greatest rivalry match in the world of cricket, maybe in the world of sport, and one that two whole countries will watch without fail. It’s the game we were waiting for, and a game that requires no introduction: India and Pakistan, on the global stage, in the biggest grudge match on the calendar.

Pakistan will have made the journey over to Dubai, which is another aspect that cannot be overlooked. On paper, even though Pakistan are the hosts of this tournament, this isn’t a home game for them, and that is what means that everything appears to be in India’s favor. Even though this is a rivalry, it definitely appears to be highly weighted in favor of one team heading into it.
India have won the last five ODI games between these two countries, with Pakistan’s previous victory being way back in the final of the 2017 version of this competition. Furthermore, India have dominated in the 50-over format. Their previous game was the thrashing they received at the hands of India in Ahmedabad during the 2023 World Cup, when Pakistan were given a runaround and bowled out for 191, India finishing the chase with 20 overs remaining.
