India stormed into the Champions Trophy 2025 final after defeating Australia by 4 wickets in Dubai. Chasing 265, chess master Virat Kohli anchored the innings with a brilliant 84, guiding India to a record chase in an ICC knockout match. Despite early setbacks, Kohli and Shreyas Iyer (45) steadied the innings before KL Rahul sealed the victory with a six. Mohammed Shami and Ravindra Jadeja shone with the ball, restricting Australia to 264. This marks India's third consecutive ICC white-ball final after the 2023 ODI World Cup and 2024 T20 World Cup. The Men in Blue now aim for their second Champions Trophy title.
