Australia at ICC Champions Trophy: Full list of past results, overall record, most runs, wickets; squad, schedule for 2025
A depleted Australian team will vie for a third ICC Champions Trophy title when it kicks off its campaign against archrival England in Lahore on February 22.
Australia, the only team to have won consecutive titles (2006 and 2009), will be without skipper Pat Cummins, who led the team to the ODI World Cup crown in 2023. Steve Smith will replace Cummins at the helm for the duration of the tournament.

Though it is the most successful team in the history of the ODI World Cup, Australia has had a rough time in the last two editions of the ICC Champions Trophy. It exited the tournament in 2013 and 2017 in the group stage after a number of its matches were washed out due to inclement weather. As a result, Australia has been winless in the tournament since the final in 2009, when it beat New Zealand at Centurion to clinch its second title.
