The 2004 ICC Champions Trophy was held in England in September 2004. Twelve teams competed in 15 matches spread over 16 days at three venues: Edgbaston, The Rose Bowl and The Oval. The nations competing included the ten Test nations, Kenya (ODI status), and – making their One Day International debut – the United States who qualified by winning the 2004 ICC Six Nations Challenge by the smallest of margins (coming down to net run rate over Canada, Namibia, and the Netherlands who had all recently played in the 2003 Cricket World Cup).
In the final, West Indies defeated England by 2 wickets to win their maiden Champions Trophy title.[1] This was their first major tournament win since the 1979 Cricket World Cup.[2] Ramnaresh Sarwan was named the Player of the Tournament.[3][4]

Prize money
The total prize money for the tournament was $1.25 million, with $400,000 for the winners of the final which was an increase of $100,000 from the last time the tournament was held in 2002.[6]
Tournament structure
Just like the previous tournament, teams were divided into pools and the first-placed teams of the respective pools at the end of pool stage would qualify to the knockout stage. The 12 teams— 10 Test playing nations (plus Kenya and United States)— were divided into four pools of three teams each, with every team playing two matches.
Australia , New Zealand and United States were placed in Pool A. South Africa, West Indies and Bangladesh were placed in Pool B. Pakistan, India and Kenya were placed in Pool C while Sri Lanka, England and Zimbabwe were placed in Pool D. The semi finals were played between the winners of Pool A, Pool D and winners of Pool B and C.
