India will not play any practice matches ahead of the ICC Champions Trophy even as Pakistan on Wednesday named three Shaheens squads (Pakistan A teams) which will feature in warm-up games against Bangladesh, South Africa and Afghanistan respectively. The warm-up matches will take place between February 14 to 17 in the lead-up to the main tournament, which is scheduled to be held from February 19 to March 9 in Pakistan and Dubai. India will play all their matches in Dubai.

The BCCI decided against playing practice games as India are already playing a three-match ODI series against England which ends on Wednesday. The Indian team is scheduled to reach Dubai on February 15.

Afghanistan, South Africa and Bangladesh will feature in these three warm-up games on February 14 and 17 respectively. Afghanistan will also play a warm-up game against New Zealand on February 16.

These will be the final round of preparations for the sides ahead of the Champions Trophy.

South Africa and New Zealand are already in Pakistan featuring in a tri-series with the home team.
