India (254/6) thump New Zealand (251/7) by 4 wickets to win the ICC Champions Trophy 2025

[kron]

Remember shami dropped rachin on 23

 

[FearlessRoar]

Keshav Maharaj dominates drift stats with 2.37° in ICC Men’s CT 2025, leading Axar (2.24°) and Santner (2.13°)!

 

[RizwanT20Champ]

NZ look good for 250+. Rohit and Kohli are chokers in ODI finals. Glad that NZ finally can win an ICC trophy in LOI. Congrats to @sweep_shot @Bhaag Viru Bhaag and sorry to @Dr_Bassim @Devadwal @Rajdeep

 

[Bhaijaan]

Indian LOI spinners are collectively the best in the world. Anyone disagree?

ROW spin attack :-

Maharaj
Zampa
Santner
Abrar

 

[gani999]

Kuldeep will go down as one of the greatest LOI spinners of all time

He is one terrific bowler. Hate how clueless people underrate him all the time.

 

[batandballbattle]

pillow soft dismissal, really don't expect it from KW
but it might actually be a blessing since he eats up a lot of deliveries, let's see

 

[kron]

Why does Tom Latham run like a duck????
Wth was that running

 

[hoshiarpurexpress]

Latham and Phillips are the key men!!

[kron]

Evidence says otherwise
He has always choked in pressure games until today

Always

And his record vs nz is poor

Facts don’t agree with your opinion

Could not read Kuldeep and just trying to smother spin..

 

[globetrotter]

Mitchell played mata ka shot

 

[Sachin fan]

I cannot believe on this pitch Pakistan had played 3 out of form pacers against India when they have spinners like Sajid and Nauman in their country.

As much as people talk about lack of talent, strategy failed them big time too.

 

[kron]

To me apart from rachin
Daryl Mitchell is nz best player

Very complete player

Kane not so much

 

[Mas-LFC]

NZ cannot do what Australia did lose wickets back to back. Take some time its not a 350 wicket. Ease up the pressure, tick it along. You got a good start but lost 2 too many but now is the time to rebuild playing risk free

NZ need a big big partnership to come back into this one. Run rate not an issue

Would make no difference
India would still have beaten them 9/10

ROW run rate down to 5.79

Mat kar NZ ko itna kinx bhai.

 

[Mas-LFC]

now its time to go 4-5runs an over for next 4-5 overs.

 

[kron]

Latham can’t play pace but he is their best player of spin

Mitchell is their best batsman

Along with rachin
Kane is a consolidator

 

[Bhaijaan]

Rohit bhai kisi ki gai de rahe hae.

 

[jamie smith]

nz 81/3 after 14 overs.

Ho gaya tera KW is key???????

Wicket coming

 

[Aang_The_last_airbender]

ROW run rate down to 5.79

Rachin has created a buffer of about 25-30 runs.

 

[Bhaijaan]

Kuldeep bowling average 23.2 in ODIs since 2022

 

[kron]

Is everyone forgetting the rajput warrior king?
Maharana Ravindra Jadeja yet to bowl still

 

[Bhaijaan]

ROW 83/3 after 15

Run rate 5.53

They were cruising above 7 at some point. Nice come back from Bharat.

 

[kron]

Kuldeep bowling average 23.2 in ODIs since 2022

Would never have guessed that. I always felt he chokes under pressyre

First time he has delivered

 

[RidiculousMan]

Kuldeep bowling average 23.2 in ODIs since 2022

Best LO spinner in the World since 2023 in my opinion.

 

[RizwanT20Champ]

Respect to Ravindra. Proper attacker and good batter unlike glorified sloggers like Head.

 

[globetrotter]

NZ 83/3 in 15 overs

Jadeja yet to bowl

 

[jamie smith]

Match not over yet btw : Daryl Mitchell has 2 centuries in ICC tournaments against India. Indians don’t really think of it as a nightmare because both times he ended up on the losing side. It could or could not be different today, so he holds the key as of now.

Need Mitchell and then yea should be good

Rest are gettable

Bracewell can slog
Santner is alright

 

[Rana]

Sab kuch samjaunga mast naha dhoke ready rehna . Now enjoy the match

I should wash up and prepare for you to tell me how Imam is a proper batsman and Fakhar is a Tulla?

India will definitely bottle this. I hope NZ can win this. I don't want India to win another ICC trophy. I am with my brothers sweeper and BVB on this one.

 

[jamie smith]

NZ 83/3 after 15 overs.

Bro it’s been ages since he was gone lmao where were you

 

[BDfanforever]

Pathetic pitch for a final with 40 overs of spin.

Where is the support for Asian block bro.
That’s disappointing to hear

 

[Human786]

I step out for 15 minutes & Kuldeep turns the game around ... is 250 a decent total ?

 

[Rana]

William ka beta ...gone ...

Bro your stream is one hour behind

 

[hoshiarpurexpress]

lol it is right up BD's alley. But they would still bottle it.

Who is hosting CT25?

 

[Bhaijaan]

Daryl Mitchell is the big wicket here.

If ROW wants to score 300+ it has got to be on the basis of a big one from Daryl bhai

 

[globetrotter]

Very very soon NZ will be 100/4

 

[Bhaijaan]

Would never have guessed that. I always felt he chokes under pressyre

First time he has delivered

Guess he’s matured. He’s an experienced part of this team.

 

[Mas-LFC]

Boring cricket so many spinners. Never liked it. Even when Bd used to have 3 left arm spinners. LOI is better looks more pleasing with least 3 seam options.

 

[jamie smith]

Latham and Mitchell about to stitch 200+ partnership from here

 

[Aang_The_last_airbender]

India will definitely bottle this. I hope NZ can win this. I don't want India to win another ICC trophy. I am with my brothers sweeper and BVB on this one.

Good luck.. My black magic >>> Sweepy's jhaado tona
BVB has no standing anyways !

 

[jamie smith]

nz 85/3 after 16 overs.

 

[batandballbattle]

Have to be careful to not get trapped in the spin web like they did in the group stage

Agreed I am pace
Bowling advocate so I hate this type of spin fest

But I don’t mind wrsties

They are classy I guess

Preference will always be pace and bounce though

 

[Aang_The_last_airbender]

Need wickets :

 

[jamie smith]

nz 90/3 after 17 overs.

 

[jamie smith]

need to build a big partnership.

 

[Aang_The_last_airbender]

Why giving such easy singles

 

[Hitman]

Need wickets.

 

[rhony]

Just woke up to a pleasant surprise. Not the wickets. Matt Henry out

 

[jamie smith]

 

[Bhaijaan]

Daryl bhai keeping the ROW proud by doing a RizBar

 

[Rana]

Why giving such easy singles

This is proper batting not tullebazi

 

[jamie smith]

With ball getting old. It will become difficult for batters on this pitch ig especially when facing spinners.

 

[Aang_The_last_airbender]

Daryl bhai keeping the ROW proud by doing a RizBar

This is typical Rizbar innings and it can determine the match

[globetrotter]

Varun back….. wicket loading

 

[FearlessRoar]

Kuldeep Yadav’s improved alignment in 2025, with a closer landing position, better body control and an upright posture

 

[castortroy]

As expected, Indian spinners were going to suck the life out of the new zeland innings

 

[FearlessRoar]

In his last four ODI knockout matches, Kuldeep had taken just one wicket. Now, he has already struck twice in his first two overs.

 

[hoshiarpurexpress]

Kuldeep Yadav’s improved alignment in 2025, with a closer landing position, better body control and an upright posture

Why Pakistan team does not work on there players e.g. Work on Shadab's action?

 

[RizwanT20Champ]

Good luck.. My black magic >>> Sweepy's jhaado tona
BVB has no standing anyways !

Nothing personal, I just don't like the Indian team. I have a soft spot for BVB after learning about his condition.

 

[rhony]

NZ is batting like India did in WC final last year. Too conservative with no boundaries

 

[sweep_shot]

Game is on balance.

NZ - 99/3 (19 overs).

 

[Aang_The_last_airbender]

Kiwis running like crazy .. they know the craft of handling such pitches
