India`s exclusive matches in Dubai spark controversy as they advance to the Champions Trophy semi-finals alongside New Zealand.

Team India has clinched a semi-final spot in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, alongside New Zealand, amidst ongoing controversy regarding their exclusive matches in Dubai. This arrangement has drawn criticism from former England cricketers Michael Atherton and Nasser Hussain, who highlighted India`s "undeniable home advantage" in adapting to Dubai`s conditions while other teams face varied venues across Pakistan.

India currently leads Group A with 4 points, having secured two wins, while Bangladesh and Pakistan sit at the bottom with 0 points. England, facing a must-win scenario against Afghanistan, is striving to keep their semi-final hopes alive. The tournament has also been marred by weather disruptions, notably the washed-out match between Australia and South Africa in Rawalpindi, prompting criticism from former India cricketer Mohammad Kaif towards the Pakistan Cricket Board.

KL Rahul has emerged as a standout performer, leading the fielding stats with 4 dismissals in just 2 matches. The ongoing discussions about India`s venue advantage have sparked debates, with Aakash Chopra acknowledging a slight edge for India but asserting that it’s not a point of shame. As the tournament progresses, the excitement and discussions surrounding the Champions Trophy continue to intensify, with teams vying for crucial semi-final spots.
