Top 8 teams of 2023 World Cup points table will play in Champions Trophy 2025

The International Cricket Council (ICC) has decided that the top eight teams in the final 2023 World Cup points table would earn a direct entry to the Champions Trophy. It is scheduled to take place in Pakistan in 2025.

The eight teams that qualified for that mega event are India, South Africa, Australia, Pakistan, New Zealand, Afghanistan, England, and Bangladesh.

Afghanistan will make their debut at the Champions Trophy in 2025. Meanwhile, Sri Lanka, who have won the tournament before, failed to qualify this time. The Islanders will miss a major ICC event for the first time in a long time.

The Netherlands also failed to capitalize on a promising start and finished outside the top 8, meaning they will miss the ICC event of 2025.

Notably, Sri Lanka and Netherlands did not qualify for the 2023 World Cup directly as well. They made it to the mega event by finishing in the Top 2 of the Qualifiers.
