The ICC events are always a spectacle as teams go head-on against each other. In this fierce battle, we often see teams trying to outclass their opponents.
And one way to do this is by scoring huge totals, either batting first or chasing the target. The Champions Trophy has seen batting teams muster as many runs as possible in 50 overs, with a few ending up as the highest.
On that note, here are the top 10 highest team totals recorded in the Champions Trophy.
