In the end, Rohit takes the lead.

In the Champions Trophy 2025, Rohit Sharma had only amassed 104 runs at an average of 26.00 from the first four games. But in the championship match, the Indian captain set the standard by scoring an incredible half-century to lead to a historic victory.

The Asian heavyweights held the Kiwis to 251/7 in their 50 overs on a challenging surface. For the Men in Blue, Varun Chakaravarthy and Kuldeep Yadav each claimed two wickets. For the Blackcaps, Michael Bracewell and Daryl Mitchell each struck a half-century in contrast.

At the top of the order, Rohit hammered a fifty off 41 balls. After hitting three sixes and seven fours in 83 deliveries, he was eventually out for 76. KL Rahul (34*), Shubman Gill (31) and Shreyas Iyer (48) all made significant knocks to help India get home with one over remaining.
