Dubai [UAE], March 4 : The Indian and Australian Cricket Teams arrived at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium on Tuesday for their semi-final clash in the ongoing ICC Champions Trophy 2025.
The ICC Champions Trophy 2025 enters its final week. India and Australia are set to meet in the first semi-final in Dubai.
The two powerhouses will meet for the first time in the ODI format since their epic meeting in the 2023 Men's Cricket World Cup Final.
Ahead of an all-important clash in the ongoing marquee event, both teams were seen getting out of their respective buses outside the stadium.

Since India won its quarter-final game at the 2011 World Cup, the two sides have faced each other four times in the ICC ODI tournaments. India and Australia have won two games each.
India's victories came in the round-robin matches at the 2019 and 2023 World Cups. On the other hand, their heartbreaking defeats unfolded in the 2015 semi-finals and the 2023 final.
