The Champions Trophy 2025 has been under a lot of threat as India and Pakistan have not been able to come to an agreement for the tournament to take place.
The much-awaited ICC Champions Trophy 2025 will be hosted by Pakistan, the defending champions, and will mark the 9th edition of the tournament. Cricket enthusiasts across the globe are eager as Pakistan gets ready to host this prestigious event. Over the years, multiple teams have claimed the sought-after trophy, with India winning it twice, including a shared victory with Sri Lanka. However, there is still one major cricketing nation that has never won the Champions Trophy.
Which country has never won ICC Champions Trophy?
England is the only team among the top-playing nations who have never won the ICC Champions Trophy. They reached the finals twice in 2002 and 2013 but failed to lift the trophy. Apart from England, Bangladesh has also not won the Champions Trophy title. Afghanistan, on the other hand, qualified for the first time in the ICC Champions Trophy tournament.
