The countdown to the ICC Champions Trophy is on, with just a month to go before the tournament kicks off on February 19. 

This year’s event will follow a hybrid model, and Pakistan will be the host country. 

The tournament will feature eight teams, and excitement is building as the first match approaches.

The competition will begin on February 19 and run through March 10. 

Bangladesh will be part of Group A, along with India, Pakistan, and New Zealand. In Group B, you’ll find Australia, South Africa, England, and Afghanistan.

Bangladesh will face tough opponents, including India and Pakistan, in their group stage matches. 

The first match will be against India on February 20.

Because of India’s refusal to play in Pakistan, the tournament will be held in two locations: Pakistan and Dubai, UAE.

Bangladesh’s game against India will be played in Dubai, making it an exciting neutral venue for the clash.

The much-anticipated match between India and Pakistan is set for February 23, and this high-stakes rivalry will also take place in Dubai. 

The group stage will wrap up on March 2, and then the semi-finals will be held on March 4 and 5, with the grand finale scheduled for March 9.
