In the final Group B match of the Champions Trophy 2025, England faces South Africa in Karachi. While England is already eliminated after defeats to Australia and Afghanistan, this match is significant for Afghanistan's semi-final aspirations. A substantial England victory could potentially edge out South Africa, paving the way for Afghanistan's progression. This game also marks the end of Jos Buttler's tenure as England's ODI captain, following a series of disappointing performances. Buttler's resignation comes amid England's struggles, having lost 15 of their last 21 ODIs. South Africa, on the other hand, has shown strong form, notably defeating Afghanistan earlier in the tournament. The outcome of this match will determine the final semi-finalist from Group B.
