Shane Watson predicts Australia’s standout player at the Champions Trophy

Shane Watson has pipped Glenn Maxwell to be Australia’s most crucial player at the ongoing ICC Champions Trophy 2025.

One of the four Event Ambassadors, Watson believes that the swashbuckling all-rounder’s recent form puts him in position to dominate the tournament.

“The stand-out player for me is Glenn Maxwell,” Watson wrote in his recent ICC column.

“With what I have seen recently, especially in the Big Bash, I believe he has some of his best cricket in front of him across the next two or three years and I would be very surprised if he does not dominate this Champions Trophy.”
