Indian Cricket Team’s Jersey for ICC Champions Trophy 2025 Goes Viral
Photos from the Indian cricket team’s official photoshoot have taken the internet by storm. Players including Rohit Sharma, Ravindra Jadeja, Hardik Pandya, and Arshdeep Singh can be seen sporting the new jersey. However, what has grabbed everyone’s attention is the Pakistan name on India’s jersey, appearing alongside the tournament’s official logo.
This is the first time in recent years that an Indian cricket jersey features Pakistan’s name, making it a historic moment for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025.
Leading up to this, India attempted to stir controversy over the inclusion of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 logo on their jersey.

However, the ICC made it clear that the Indian team is required to feature Pakistan’s name on their jersey, as Pakistan is the official host of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. Despite initial opposition, the BCCI had to comply with ICC’s regulations, resulting in this unprecedented moment where Pakistan’s name appears on India’s cricket jersey.
