England have never won the Champions Trophy despite playing two finals in the years 2004 and 2013. The 2019 ODI World Cup champions will look to get their hands on the Champions Trophy this time. However, they recently suffered an embarrassing clean sweep against India in the three-match ODI series.
However, there was one good thing for England during the series which was Joe Root’s form. The right-handed batter looked in decent touch during the series scoring 19, 69 and 24 runs in the three-match series. Root will be a key player for England in the upcoming Champions Trophy 2025.
The 3 reasons why Joe Root could be England’s best performer in Champions Trophy 2025:
1. Provides stability in batting order
Joe Root’s batting technique is phenomenal against both pacers and spinners. He has been phenomenal in the Test format and will try to use that form in the ODI format as well. Root has been in great touch and will be a key batter for England in the upcoming major tournament.
2. All-round contribution
Apart from Adil Rashid, England don’t have a mainstream spinner in their squad for the Champions Trophy. Liam Livingstone is the other option but he hasn’t proved himself enough when it comes to the bowling department. However, Root will be another option as a part-time spinner. He is currently the no. seven ranked all-rounder in Test format which speaks volume about his bowling abilities.
3. Wealth of Experience
The right-handed batter has featured in multiple ICC events, including the 2019 ODI World Cup, where England emerged victorious. His ability to adapt to different batting conditions and his experience in high-pressure situations will be invaluable for the English team.
