The Group B clash of ICC Champions Trophy 2025 between Australia and South Africa was abandoned without a ball being bowled.

The seventh match of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, a Group B clash between Australia and South Africa in Rawalpindi, ended without toss as rain played spoilsport.

The persistent rain prevented the toss from taking place, meaning both South Africa and Australia shared a point each

Both teams came into the contest on the back of a win in their opening match of the tournament. Australia had defeated arch-rivals England by five wickets in Lahore, while South Africa outplayed Afghanistan in Karachi to secure a 107-run victory.
