Pakistan captain Mohammad Rizwan has acknowledged that his team's hopes of advancing in the Champions Trophy are virtually over following a tough six-wicket defeat to India in Dubai, which followed a 60-run loss to New Zealand in their opening match.

Pakistan captain Mohammad Rizwan admitted his team's campaign is over after their six-wicket defeat to India. Rizwan attributed their loss to poor performance in all departments, especially their failure to set a competitive target and also their lackluster fielding during crucial moments.

Former Pakistan women’s captain Urooj Mumtaz criticised skipper Mohammad Rizwan for playing too many dot balls in the middle overs phase, which ultimately led to their six-wicket defeat to India in the 2025 Champions Trophy clash in Dubai.
