Delhi: The Champions Trophy 2025 is going to be held soon, and in the meantime South African captain Tamba Bavuma has given a big statement about this tournament. He said that this tournament can be more difficult than the ODI World Cup. He believes that the Champions Trophy has only three group stage matches, which can make it difficult for the team. At the same time, there are 9 group stage matches in the ODI World Cup, which gives the teams a chance to mold themselves and regroup.
South African captain’s statement
During a press conference in Pakistan, Tamba Bavuma said, “In the World Cup, the teams have time to correct themselves and make Momentum. But in the Champions Trophy, if you do not do well in the beginning, then you are at risk of getting out quickly. This time we are ready to move a step ahead with our team. This tournament will be high pressure, but we are fully prepared to face this challenge. “
