Australia and India clashed in the Champions Trophy 2025 semi-final, with strategic plays and historical honors shaping the match.

The Champions Trophy 2025 semi-final unfolded on March 4, 2025, at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium, where Australia faced India in a high-stakes clash. Winning the toss, Australian captain Steve Smith opted to bat first, citing the dry pitch as a strategic advantage. The Australian lineup saw two changes, with Cooper Connolly stepping in for the injured Matt Short and Tanveer Sangha, an India-origin spinner, replacing Spencer Johnson.

India, donning black armbands to honor the late Padmakar Shivalkar, a revered left-arm spinner in Indian domestic cricket, maintained their previous lineup. The Indian batting order, featuring stalwarts like Rohit Sharma, Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, and Shreyas Iyer, was poised to tackle the challenges posed by Australia`s spin-friendly conditions. The weather was hazy, with daytime temperatures around 30 degrees Celsius, cooling to 22 degrees in the evening, setting the stage for an intense contest.

Fans eagerly tuned in to watch the match live on Star Sports and Sports18, with streaming available on JioHotstar. The stakes were high as both teams aimed for a place in the finals, making this semi-final a must-watch event for cricket enthusiasts.
