The '''2006 ICC Champions Trophy''' was a [[One Day International]] [[cricket]] tournament held in India from 7 October to 5 November 2006. It was the fifth edition of the [[ICC Champions Trophy]] (previously known as the ICC Knock-out). The tournament venue was not confirmed until mid-2005 when the Indian government agreed that tournament revenues would be free from tax (the 2002 tournament had been due to be held in India, but was switched to [[Sri Lanka]] when an exemption from tax in India was not granted).<ref>[http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/cricket/other_international/india/4582215.stm India to keep Champions Trophy] [[BBC News]], 26 May 2005</ref> [[Australia national cricket team|Australia]] won the tournament, their first Champions Trophy victory. They were the only team to only get one loss in the tournament, as all other teams lost at least two matches. [[West Indies cricket team|West Indies]], their final opponents, beat Australia in the group stage, but were bowled out for 138 in the final and lost by eight wickets on the [[Duckworth–Lewis method]]. West Indies opening batsman [[Chris Gayle]] was named Player of the Tournament.

English writer [[Tim de Lisle]] said the tournament "had been fun", because "it had been unpredictable."<ref>[http://content-uk.cricinfo.com/ci/content/story/266329.html Why it has been fun this time], Tim de Lisle, from Cricinfo. Retrieved 5 November 2006</ref> The unpredictability was in part shown by the fact that no Asian side qualified for the semi-final, for the first time in a major ICC tournament since the [[1975 Cricket World Cup|1975 World Cup]]. De Lisle also claimed that "the pitches" had been the "tournament's secret", saying that they were "sporting and [[Quixotism|quixotic]]" and "quite untypical of both one-day cricket and the subcontinent." His viewed were echoed by panelists in a roundtable discussion organised by Cricinfo, "who hoped that the tournament would not be a one-off in a batsman-dominated game" according to news site rediff.com.<ref>[http://www.rediff.com/cricket/2006/nov/05cric.htm Indian batsmen's bad habits exposed], by Deepti Patwardhan, from Rediff. Retrieved 5 November 2006</ref> The tournament recorded five of the 10 lowest team totals in the tournament's history, and totals of 80 (for West Indies v Sri Lanka) and 89 (for Pakistan v South Africa) were the lowest recorded in matches involving the top eight ranked One-day International sides of the world.<ref>[http://uk.cricinfo.com/db/STATS/ICCCT/TEAM/ICCCT_LOWEST_TEAM_TOTALS.html Champions Trophy – Lowest Team Totals]{{Dead link|date=August 2019 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}, from Cricinfo.

==Qualifying==
The Ten full member teams competed in the tournament, and were seeded according to the [[ICC ODI Championship]] standings on 1 April 2006. [[Bangladesh national cricket team|Bangladesh]] became the last team to qualify, claiming tenth place ahead of [[Kenya national cricket team|Kenya]] on 23 March 2006. The first six teams on the ICC ODI table ([[Australia national cricket team|Australia]], [[South Africa national cricket team|South Africa]], [[Pakistan national cricket team|Pakistan]], [[New Zealand national cricket team|New Zealand]], [[India national cricket team|India]], and [[England cricket team|England]]) qualified automatically; the next four teams ([[Sri Lanka national cricket team|Sri Lanka]], the defending champions [[West Indies cricket team|West Indies]], [[Zimbabwe national cricket team|Zimbabwe]] and [[Bangladesh national cricket team|Bangladesh]]) played a pre-tournament [[Round-robin tournament|round-robin]] qualifying round from 7 to 14 October to determine which two will proceed to play in the tournament proper.<ref>[http://www.sportsfeatures.com/index.php?section=pp&action=show&id=30369 Bangladesh confirm final ICC Champions Trophy 2006 place] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070927074509/http://www.sportsfeatures.com/index.php?section=pp&action=show&id=30369 |date=27 September 2007 }} ICC media release, 23 March 2006</ref>

Two teams from the qualifying round, plus the other six teams, played in a group stage, split into two groups of four in a [[Round-robin tournament|round-robin]] competition, played from 15 to 29 October. Matches in the preliminary round and the group round were played in the [[Punjab Cricket Association Stadium]] in [[Mohali]], [[Sardar Patel Stadium]] in [[Ahmedabad]], the [[Sawai Mansingh Stadium|Sawai Man Singh Stadium]] in [[Jaipur]], and the [[Brabourne Stadium]] in [[Mumbai]]. The matches in Mumbai were the first [[One Day International|ODI]]s at Brabourne Stadium for 11 years.

The top two teams from each group qualified for the semi-finals, played in Mohali on 1 November and in Jaipur on 2 November. The final was played in Mumbai on 5 November.

== Off the field issues==
The [[Board of Control for Cricket in India|BCCI]], Indian cricket's governing body, were making efforts to ensure that this is the last ICC Champions Trophy. They stated that it was a "financial burden" for host nations, and that the ICC should host only one international tournament, the World Cup.<ref>[http://content-usa.cricinfo.com/ci/content/story/231644.html India to call for scrapping of Champions Trophy] Cricinfo, 4 January 2006</ref> However, in April, BCCI president [[Sharad Pawar]] said that he would "respect the decision" if the ICC unanimously agreed to keep the Champions Trophy on the calendar.<ref>[http://content-usa.cricinfo.com/ci/content/story/245532.html BCCI not against Champions Trophy – Pawar] Cricinfo 27 April 2006</ref>

After the [[11 July 2006 Mumbai train bombings|bombings in Mumbai in July 2006]], there were concerns raised about the security of players, but no team decided to withdraw on these grounds.<ref>[http://content-usa.cricinfo.com/ci/content/story/253216.html Concern over Champions Trophy] Cricinfo, 12 July 2006</ref>

[[Herschelle Gibbs]] returned to India for the first time in six years; he had refused to tour the country following the match-fixing scandal on the tour of India in 2000, over fears he might be arrested. He eventually agreed to a questioning session with the Delhi police, incriminating several more people in the scandal.<ref>[http://content-usa.cricinfo.com/ci/content/story/262454.html Gibbs reveals more names to Indian police] Cricinfo, 12 October 2006</ref>

Pakistan's team composition frequently changed; the original captain [[Inzamam-ul-Haq]] was suspended following his decision to forfeit the fourth Test of Pakistan's match against England over an umpiring decision. [[Younis Khan]] was instated as captain, withdrew himself, then was appointed for the job again. On 16 October, the day before their first match, Pakistan fast bowlers [[Mohammad Asif (cricketer)|Mohammad Asif]] and [[Shoaib Akhtar]] were sent home following a positive A sample of a drugs test.

===Award ceremony controversy===
During the Award ceremony after the finals, [[Ricky Ponting]] tapped the shoulders of BCCI President [[Sharad Pawar]] and gestured him to handover the trophy. Soon after the trophy was handed over, [[Damien Martyn]] nudged Sharad Pawar off the stage eager to relish the moment and to pose for the waiting photographers. Former Indian batsman [[Sunil Gavaskar]] who was also present in the stage, later disclosed that one of the [[Australia national cricket team|Australian team members]] referred to Pawar as "Hiya Buddy".<ref>[http://www.cricketnext.com/news/pawar-was-addressed-as-hiya-buddy-gavaskar/21579-13.html 'Hiya buddy', said Aussies to Pawar]</ref>

Although Pawar tried to play down the incident by stating that "it wasn't intentional", some cricketers including the usually diplomatic [[Sachin Tendulkar]] and [[Nikhil Chopra]] reacted strongly to this. In [[Mumbai]], a section of [[Nationalist Congress Party|NCP]] workers took to the streets demanding an apology from the [[Australian cricket team]]. [[Chaggan Bhujbal]], a [[Nationalist Congress Party|NCP]] leader said "This is an insult to a senior leader. We will make a formal complaint to the Australian embassy." 

The [[Board of Control for Cricket in India|BCCI]], however, decided not to officially complain to [[Cricket Australia]].<ref>[http://www.cricketnext.com/news/bcci-wont-officially-complain-to-ca/21587-13.html BCCI won't officially complain to Cricket Australia]</ref> However, the issue soon got resolved when Ricky Ponting tended his apology to Pawar.

==Umpires and match referees==
Three match referees and eight [[umpire (cricket)|umpires]] were named for the tournament. Of the ten umpires on the ICC elite panel, neither [[Darrell Hair]], who was not nominated due to security concerns, nor [[Billy Doctrove]] were employed for the tournament. Those were two umpires calling Pakistan for [[Pakistani cricket team in England in 2006|ball tampering]] in August. An ICC spokesman said, "this didn't mean Billy Doctrove is a bad umpire", and that there was "nothing sinister" about the decision.<ref>[http://www.cricketweb.net/article.php?CategoryIDAuto=1&NewsIDAuto=2572 Doctrove will not stand]</ref>
