ICC Champions Trophy 2025: Former Pakistan cricketer predicted, which team will reach the semi-finals?

Champions Trophy 2025 Semifinals Prediction: The Champions Trophy is going to return after eight years, and it will start from 19th February. A total of 8 countries are participating in this tournament, which are divided into two groups. Group A includes India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and New Zealand, while Group B includes Australia, Afghanistan, South Africa and England. Former Pakistan cricketer Mohammad Asif has predicted the four semi-finalist teams of this tournament.

Pakistan is the host of the Champions Trophy, but the Indian team's matches will be played in Dubai because the hybrid model has been adopted. Mohammad Asif has been a bowler who had special expertise in swinging the ball both ways. He took goodbye from cricket in 2010.

These four teams will reach the semi-finals:

Asif said with confidence that Pakistan will definitely reach the semi-finals. According to him, India, Australia and England will be the remaining three teams to reach the semi-finals. Asif believes that these four teams have always performed well in ICC events and their performance comes to the fore when needed.

The last edition of the Champions Trophy was held in 2017, where India, Pakistan, England and Bangladesh made it to the semi-finals. In the final, Pakistan had registered a historic victory by defeating India by 180 runs. In that tournament, Australia was eliminated in the group stage itself. Sri Lanka is the only team that was in the 2017 Champions Trophy, but will not play in the upcoming ICC event.
