Indian cricket team lands in Dubai for Champions Trophy. ICC Champions Trophy’s first match in Dubai is still some days away. India play their opening match vs Bangladesh in Dubai on February 20. The tournament gets underway on February 19 with India vs Bangladesh. Pakistan, the defending champions, will put their credentials to the test in the opener against New Zealand in Karachi on February 14. The teams allotted fixtures vs India will travel to Dubai and then head back as per the hybrid arrangement okayed by the International Cricket Council (ICC) The only question on their lips is \”when will the Bangladesh team land?\” and they certainly sound confident of taking a Jasprit Bumrah-less India down in their tournament opener. \”Pakistan is 50-50. They can do anything on their day but when it’s not their day, they are a difficult team to even watch on TV (laughs),\” said a cab driver who makes multiple trips to the airport in a day. \”I support Bangladesh and want them to win. It will be difficult but easier than before,\” said a taxi driver.
