India vs Pakistan WCL 2025: Will Rain Disrupt the Champions' Clash?
By : Sandhya
The much-awaited clash between India Champions and Pakistan Champions in the WCL 2025 might face a rain interruption, as forecasts predict showers at Edgbaston on match day. With the tournament not governed by either the BCCI or PCB, the match moves ahead independently, offering fans a nostalgic showdown featuring cricket legends from both sides.
Fans will witness exciting names like Shahid Afridi, Mohammad Hafeez, Shoaib Malik, Yuvraj Singh, Shikhar Dhawan, and Irfan Pathan return to the field in this veterans’ face-off. However, concerns remain high as weather threatens to dampen the spectacle—just as rain disrupted the West Indies Champions vs South Africa Champions match earlier.
Pakistan Champions kicked off their WCL 2025 campaign with a narrow five-run victory over England Champions. As they prepare for the marquee clash against India Champions, Shahid Afridi is expected to return to the lineup, adding to the intensity of the rivalry.
The two teams last met in the WCL 2024 final, where India Champions emerged victorious. The rematch now carries extra weight as both sides look to assert dominance once again—weather permitting.
India Champions Squad:
Yuvraj Singh (c), Shikhar Dhawan, Harbhajan Singh, Suresh Raina, Irfan Pathan, Yusuf Pathan, Robin Uthappa, Ambati Rayudu, Piyush Chawla, Stuart Binny, Varun Aaron, Vinay Kumar, Abhimanyu Mithun, Siddarth Kaul, Gurkeerat Singh Mann
Pakistan Champions Squad:

Cricket fans around the world are keeping their fingers crossed, hoping the weather stays clear for this iconic face-off.
