As per the ICC rule, the top 7 teams based on the standings of the ICC World Cup 2023 along with hosts Pakistan will form the 8 teams that will take part in the tournament. With England placed at the bottom of the table, the Three Lions have a tough job on their hands to make it to the Champions Trophy.
England has just 1 match remaining in the World Cup and will have to win the game at cost. They face a tricky fixture against the Netherlands who have already caused a couple of upsets in the World Cup.

“Some top players and we are a long way short of our best. Excellent start in the powerplay, the guys found some movement, there was a bit of indifferent bounce as well, the ground fielding was good. It felt like today was the day where it was all turning around, but the way we batted, didn’t back that up. (On Champions Trophy 2025 qualification) We are aware of that, we’ve still got lots to play for,” said Jos Buttler after the match.
