    Champions Trophy: Relive Key Encounters Between India And New Zealand Ahead Of Summit Clash

    By IANS News March 07, 2025 • 16:10 PM View: 812
    ICC World Test Championship: As India prepare to take on New Zealand in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 final in Dubai on Sunday, history looms large over this much-anticipated encounter. While India enter the contest as favourites, having secured seven consecutive ODI wins leading up to the final, their record against New Zealand in ICC tournament finals tells a different story.

    Overall, New Zealand lead India 3-1 when it comes to finals in international cricket. India and New Zealand have already met once in the Champions Trophy 2025, with India securing a 40-run victory in the group stage. Varun Chakravarthy’s five-wicket haul dismantled the Kiwi batting lineup, proving India’s strength in spin-friendly conditions. Let's take a look at how the previous ICC knockout matches have transpired.

    2000 ICC KnockOut Trophy final (now Champions Trophy): The first major ICC final between these two sides took place in the 2000 ICC KnockOut Trophy (now the Champions Trophy). New Zealand claimed their first and only ICC white-ball title by defeating India in a closely contested final. Chris Cairns played a heroic innings, scoring a century to guide the Black Caps to a four-wicket victory, leaving India heartbroken.
