ICC Champions Trophy Winners List: 1998 to 2025

India has won the ICC Champions Trophy three times, more than any other team. Its first was shared with Sri Lanka in 2002; it then beat England in 2013 and New Zealand in 2025. Australia is the only other multiple champion, winning back-to-back editions in 2006 and 2009.

How we compiled the Champions Trophy winners

This chronology covers every completed men’s ICC Champions Trophy and its earlier ICC KnockOut name. Winner, runner-up, host and final result are checked edition by edition, with the 2002 shared title recorded exactly as awarded after rain prevented a result on both scheduled days.

Qualifying events and other ICC tournaments are excluded. There were no Champions Trophy editions between 2017 and 2025, so those calendar years are gaps in the competition, not missing rows.

Current Champions Trophy record through 2025

India’s 2025 title is the latest completed result in this chronology. A future edition will not enter the table until its final is complete and the ICC result is official.

Champions Trophy winners and runners-up by year

Nine editions have been completed. The first two were called the ICC KnockOut Trophy, but the ICC counts them in the same tournament history.

Year	Winner	Runner-up	Final result	Host / final venue	Winning captain
1998	South Africa	West Indies	Won by 4 wickets	Bangladesh / Dhaka	Hansie Cronje
2000	New Zealand	India	Won by 4 wickets	Kenya / Nairobi	Stephen Fleming
2002	India and Sri Lanka	Shared title	No result after rain	Sri Lanka / Colombo	Sourav Ganguly and Sanath Jayasuriya
2004	West Indies	England	Won by 2 wickets	England / The Oval	Brian Lara
2006	Australia	West Indies	Won by 8 wickets (DLS)	India / Mumbai	Ricky Ponting
2009	Australia	New Zealand	Won by 6 wickets	South Africa / Centurion	Ricky Ponting
2013	India	England	Won by 5 runs	England and Wales / Birmingham	MS Dhoni
2017	Pakistan	India	Won by 180 runs	England and Wales / The Oval	Sarfaraz Ahmed
2025	India	New Zealand	Won by 4 wickets	Pakistan and UAE / Dubai	Rohit Sharma

“Shared title” is not the same as a tied final. The 2002 match never reached a result because rain prevented a completed chase on both available days.

Titles by team

Seven teams have held the trophy. India leads because the ICC includes its joint 2002 win in the title count.

Team	Titles	Winning years	Final appearances
India	3	2002 shared, 2013, 2025	5
Australia	2	2006, 2009	2
South Africa	1	1998	1
New Zealand	1	2000	3
Sri Lanka	1	2002 shared	1
West Indies	1	2004	3
Pakistan	1	2017	1
England	0	—	2

India lost the 2000 final to New Zealand and the 2017 final to Pakistan in addition to its three titles. New Zealand lost in 2009 and 2025 after winning in 2000. England reached two home finals but remains the only team in this table without a win.

1998: South Africa wins the first edition

The inaugural tournament was staged in Bangladesh as the ICC KnockOut Trophy. South Africa beat West Indies by four wickets in Dhaka, chasing 246 with three overs remaining.

Jacques Kallis shaped the tournament. He took five wickets in the final, scored an unbeaten 37 in the chase and finished as both the leading run-scorer and Player of the Series. It remains South Africa’s first senior men’s ICC limited-overs title.

2000: New Zealand beats India

New Zealand won its first senior men’s ICC trophy in Nairobi. India made 264 for 6 behind Sourav Ganguly’s 117, then reduced New Zealand to 132 for 5.

Chris Cairns changed the final with an unbeaten 102. He and Chris Harris rebuilt the chase, and New Zealand reached the target with two balls remaining. The four-wicket win remains one of the country’s defining ODI results.

2002: India and Sri Lanka share the trophy

The Colombo final was abandoned twice. On the scheduled day, Sri Lanka made 244 for 5 before rain stopped India at 14 without loss. Tournament rules required a fresh match rather than a continuation.

Sri Lanka then made 222 for 7 on the reserve day, only for rain to return with India 38 for 1. With no third day available and no completed second innings, India and Sri Lanka were declared joint champions.

The unusual format means India legitimately owns three titles, while Sri Lanka owns one. Calling 2002 merely “no result” without recording the shared trophy understates the official outcome.

2004-09: West Indies, then Australia twice

West Indies produced a lower-order escape against England at The Oval in 2004. Chasing 218, it fell to 147 for 8 before Courtney Browne and Ian Bradshaw added an unbeaten 71. Bradshaw hit the winning boundary with seven balls left.

Pakistan and West Indies have each won the tournament once, but not by beating one another in a final. The Pakistan vs West Indies hub keeps their ICC meetings inside the wider ODI record without treating a Champions Trophy result as a bilateral series.

Australia then became the first team to retain the trophy. It beat West Indies by eight wickets under the DLS method in Mumbai in 2006, then defeated New Zealand by six wickets at Centurion in 2009. New Zealand had reached that final by beating Pakistan by five wickets; the Pakistan vs New Zealand hub keeps the semi-final inside their wider ODI record. Shane Watson made unbeaten scores in both finals, while Ricky Ponting captained both victories.

2013: India wins a 20-over final

Rain reduced the Birmingham final between India and England to 20 overs a side. India recovered from 66 for 5 to post 129 for 7, led by Virat Kohli’s 43 and Ravindra Jadeja’s unbeaten 33.

England needed 20 from the last 16 balls with six wickets left but lost four wickets in eight deliveries. India won by five runs. MS Dhoni thereby became the first captain to win the ODI World Cup, the men’s T20 World Cup and the Champions Trophy.

The match retained ODI status despite its shortened length. The minimum-overs and rain rules behind that are explained in our ODI full-form and 50-over guide.

2017: Pakistan’s 180-run final win

Pakistan entered the 2017 tournament as its lowest-ranked team and lost the teams’ opening group match to India. The rematch at The Oval went the other way emphatically.

Pakistan’s recovery also included a 19-run DLS win over South Africa at Birmingham. The Pakistan vs South Africa hub keeps that tournament match inside their wider ODI record without confusing it with South Africa’s 1998 title.

Fakhar Zaman made 114 after surviving an early caught-behind because Jasprit Bumrah had overstepped. Pakistan reached 338 for 4, Mohammad Amir removed India’s top three, and India was dismissed for 158. The 180-run margin remains the largest in a Champions Trophy final.

2025: India wins a record third title

The tournament returned after an eight-year absence, hosted by Pakistan with India’s matches played in Dubai. India completed an unbeaten campaign by beating New Zealand by four wickets in the final on 9 March.

New Zealand made 251 for 7. Rohit Sharma’s 76 gave India the chase’s foundation, and Ravindra Jadeja hit the winning runs at 254 for 6 with six balls left. Rohit was Player of the Match; New Zealand’s Rachin Ravindra was Player of the Tournament.

The result moved India ahead of Australia in the title table. It also made 2025 the ninth edition, despite the tournament beginning 27 years earlier, because scheduling gaps interrupted its original two-year rhythm.

The Women’s Champions Trophy starts in 2027

The inaugural ICC Women’s Champions Trophy will run from 14 to 28 February 2027 in Sri Lanka. It shares the Champions Trophy name but not the men’s format: the women’s event has six teams, 16 matches and T20 cricket.

That event will have its own competition history. Its winner will not be added to this men’s ODI table, just as Women’s T20 World Cup champions remain separate from the men’s record.

Champions Trophy versus the Cricket World Cup

Both are ICC ODI tournaments, but they are not interchangeable. The Champions Trophy uses a smaller eight-team field and a short group-and-knockout schedule. The World Cup has more teams, lasts longer and remains the format’s primary global championship. The 2027 Cricket World Cup hub tracks the next edition’s confirmed 14-team format, while the complete Cricket World Cup winners list covers the finished tournaments and Australia’s record six titles.

Feature	Champions Trophy	ODI World Cup
Format	50-over ODI	50-over ODI
Field	8 teams in 2025	Larger field
Length	About two and a half weeks	Roughly six weeks
First edition	1998	1975
Next scheduled edition	2029	2027

The trophy belongs alongside our T20 World Cup winners list, Asia Cup winners history and IPL winners list rather than being folded into any of them.
