HISTORY OF THE ICC Champions Trophy
The ICC Champions Trophy has undergone numerous changes in its short 8-year history. First known as the ICC Knockout, it has often been referred to as the mini-world cup. Since its inception in 1998, this tournament has generated much excitement because of its intense play among the world's best sides in a relatively short period. The ICC Knockout name continued in 1998, but was changed for the first time in 2002 to its current name, ICC Champions Trophy.
