Watch: Tim Southee chooses his top two batters for ICC Champions Trophy 2025

The Champions Trophy is only days away from beginning and there are already predictions being made on which players will end up being the top performers in the upcoming ICC event which will be happening in the upcoming ICC event in Pakistan and Dubai. There is already a lot of hype and discussion going ahead of the tournaments on who will be the favorites to win this tournament. Though there will still be some legendary players that will feature in the tournament there will be some legends who will be missing out on the event and one of them is New Zealand legendary pacer Tim Southee who has retired from international cricket this season.

The former WTC 2019-2021 winner has also shared his opinion on who will be the two top batters of the tournament and has picked his fellow countryman Kane Williamson and Australian destructive batter Travis Head and gave his reasons on why he picked the two players as the favourites in a video posted by the ICC.

“I think wickets would be pretty good in Pakistan. Kane Williamson would be up there (among the top run-getters). Just think about his ability to adapt to different conditions. We have seen his experience in different conditions, his success in different conditions and he is a guy that’s got a phenomenal one-day record, said Southee.

“Maybe Travis Head as well, I think he is a dangerous player. He has been a standout in the ODI World Cup last edition. I think he will like the wickets in Pakistan. Australia have historically been strong in the world events and I am sure they will be there near the end this time as well,” Southee added.

Watch the video below: 

Speaking of both the performances of Kane Williamson and Travis Head in ODI cricket, Williamson has a great record where he has scored 6810 runs in 165 matches at an average of 48.64 and Head has also given some great performances in the 69 ODIs he has played scoring 2645 runs at an average of 44.08.
