Champions Trophy 2025 flop playing XI: England and Pakistan cricketers dominate

Delhi: The group round in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 is over and the semi -finals have also been completed. 2 teams have reached the finals and 6 teams have returned home, but will include the players of 4 teams of the Group Charan recently returned home in the flop XI, as all the players of the teams who reached the semi -finals were in the form of Shandar form, so in the tournament, where some performed the top, there were some heartbreaking stories.

There are many superstars, in which it was expected that they would perform well for their team, but they were seen licking dust. So the team of 11 players make flops at the end of the group round in the tournament:

Babar Azam (Pakistan)

The top batsman’s fashion again failed under pressure on the big stage. There was a lot of expectations from Babar Azam but the performance was poor and a lot of fault of Pakistan’s group round is coming to his name. Record: Strike rate for 87 runs in 2 matches is just 75. Did not play a single match innings.

Phil Salt (England)

Record: 30 runs in 3 matches and the same pattern of being dismissed in each innings was a failed attempt to attack in powerplay. England are expected to be out of the ODI set up.

Jamie Smith (England)

The one who had never batted at number 3 in ODIs before the tournament gave him such a big responsibility. When promoted at number 3, he played in the powerplay in every innings but failed. Against Australia, when the catch was missed on the mid-on, then one ball again put the shot there. Record: 24 runs in 3 matches.

Liam Livingstone (England)

The one who chose for the power of putting big shots in the last over and good spin could not live up to the expectations at all. Record: Not only 33 runs in 3 matches and strike rate 85 and 3 wickets at an average of 33. The better record of this tournament helps him become the captain of England.

Jose Butler (wicketkeeper/captain)

Not 82 runs at an average of 27 and the strike rate 78 in 3 matches and defeat in all three matches as captain. In this way, this tournament proved to be the last nail in the coffin for his captaincy, in the lack of run, career became the worst phase. In the middle of the tournament, he announced to leave the captaincy.

Rashid Khan (Afghanistan)

Due to this top ODI cricketer being ‘off color’, Afghanistan did not even take advantage of the sensational victory against England and did not reach the knock out round. Record: 38 runs in 3 innings of 3 matches and 1 wicket at an average of 125.

Shaheen Shah Afridi (Pakistan)

The one who once made a captain also played like an ordinary bowler and took just 2 wickets at an average of 71 in 2 matches. He calls himself an all -rounder and match winner but also scored 14 runs in 2 innings. This record does not even make a place in the team.

Adil Rashid (England)

Perhaps Pakistan’s pitch Adil did not like it and at an expensive average of 48 for just 3 wickets in 3 matches. England took full loss due to the failure of their bowlers and if they were at the bottom of the net run rate in the group even if they scored 847 runs in 3 matches, then the failure of Adil was contributed to the failure of Adil.

Haris Rauf (Pakistan)

He was one of the heroes of Pakistan’s failure in the tournament. In the tournament, 2 wickets in 2 matches at an average of 67+ and the economy rate is close to 8. Other teams took full advantage of their pace and lack of diversity in the ball, which proved to be one of the reasons for Pakistan’s group-stage.

Mark Wood (England)

The record was 1 wicket at 7.14 economy at 125 average in 2 matches. He returned from injury and was in a hurry to take him in the team. Even now in his future, questions are being raised on playing international plays and red balls. England counted him with a strike bowler with Jofra Archer.

Mustafizur Rahman (Bangladesh)

We were not in rhythm at all and not in the top form at all. It was a small achievement of a top Khabu Pesar to take 2 wickets at 50+ average in 2 matches. Bangladesh team could not impress in the tournament and Mustafizur was very responsible for this.
