The International Cricket Council (ICC) has unveiled its official promo for the 2025 Champions Trophy, featuring a star-studded lineup of cricketing superstars.
The video showcases Shaheen Afridi and Shadab Khan alongside England’s Phil Salt in a wrestling-inspired, action-packed sequence.
Drawing heavily from the aesthetics of the ‘Mission: Impossible’ film series, the promo portrays teams attempting to secure the coveted Champions Trophy in a thrilling heist scenario.
The video opens with Shaheen and Shadab embarking on a covert mission to claim the prestigious trophy, with India’s Hardik Pandya also making appearance.
The high-energy clip captures the excitement and intensity leading up to the tournament, scheduled to take place from February 19 to March 9, 2025.
Meanwhile, an issue arose when reports surfaced suggesting that India would not feature Pakistan’s name on their jerseys for the tournament. However, this matter was swiftly resolved.
BCCI Secretary Devajit Saikia confirmed to the Press Trust of India (PTI) that India would comply with ICC regulations and feature Pakistan’s name on their Champions Trophy jerseys.
