The ICC Champions Trophy, also called the "Mini World Cup" or simply "Champions Trophy" is a cricket tournament organised by the International Cricket Council every four years. Inaugurated in 1998, The ICC conceived the idea of the Champions Trophy – a short cricket tournament to raise funds for the development of the game in non-test playing countries. It remains as one of those ICC events that had the same format as that of another big cricketing event, like the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup, with the format being One Day Internationals. The tournament is one of the world's most viewed sporting events.
