The 2013 ICC Champions Trophy was the seventh ICC Champions Trophy, a One Day International cricket tournament held in England and Wales between 6 and 23 June 2013.[1][2] India won the tournament for the second time by defeating England in the final by 5 runs.[3]

India received $2 million as prize money for winning the tournament, the largest amount since the tournament's inception.[4] It was due to be the final ICC Champions Trophy, to be replaced by the ICC World Test Championship in 2017,[5] but in January 2014, it was instead confirmed by the ICC that a Champions Trophy tournament would take place in 2017, with the proposed Test Championship being cancelled.[6]
