India’s Historic Win

With this victory, India became the first team to win the Champions Trophy three times, surpassing Australia, who have won it twice. Rohit Sharma also became the second Indian captain after MS Dhoni to lift multiple ICC white-ball trophies.

India remained unbeaten throughout the tournament. In the final, New Zealand scored 251/7, with Daryl Mitchell (63) and Michael Bracewell (53) leading their batting. However, India’s spinners Kuldeep Yadav and Varun Chakravarthy played a key role in restricting their score.

India’s chase started with a 105-run opening stand between Rohit Sharma (76) and Shubman Gill (31). Despite losing wickets at crucial times, India’s strong batting lineup ensured victory with an over to spare.
