Win Projections to be updated soon
In the Champions Trophy 2025 finals against India at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium, New Zealand batted brilliantly on a slow wicket. By working together, the New Zealand batting team amassed a score of 251-7 after 50 overs. The Kiwis’ top performances in the ongoing match on Sunday were Michael Bracewell (53 off 40) and Daryl Mitchell (63 off 101).
In the meantime, India, who last won the prized trophy in 2013 when they defeated MS Dhoni‘s England under Alastair Cook, must chase down 252 runs in the 50 overs given to them in order to win it again. In terms of the most successful run-chases in the history of the Champions Trophy finals, since the tournament’s establishment in 1998, this chase would rank second if the Men in Blue succeed.
In the Champions Trophy final, the most successful chase
Let us now examine the greatest run-chases in the history of the Champions Trophy finals. New Zealand presently holds this record, which was set against India in 2000. Consequently, India has the ideal chance to exact their 2.5-decade-long retribution on the BlackCaps in today’s final.
