India and New Zealand to clash in 2025 Champions Trophy final
India and New Zealand are set to clash in the ICC Champions Trophy final today, with India seeking their third Champions Trophy title and New Zealand aiming for their second. This encounter marks the third time these two teams will meet in an ICC final, with New Zealand claiming victory in their previous meeting in the 2000 Champions Trophy final.
Men in Blue, unbeaten so far, have cleverly utilized Dubai's conditions with their spin-heavy lineup. New Zealand, meanwhile, has its own spinners to challenge India, led by Mitchell Santner.
India won their previous encounter in the tournament, thanks to Varun Chakravarthy's impressive 5-wicket haul. However, the Men in Blue won't underestimate the Kiwis, as their head-to-head records are evenly poised, with a 1-1 tie in the Champions Trophy and a 5-5 deadlock in World Cups.
