India's spinners delivered a dominant performance in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 final, limiting New Zealand to 251/7 at Dubai International Cricket Stadium. Kuldeep Yadav (2/40) and Varun Chakravarthy (2/45) led the bowling attack, while Ravindra Jadeja and Mohammed Shami took one wicket each. Daryl Mitchell (63) and Michael Bracewell (53) played crucial knocks as New Zealand fought back after early setbacks. Captain Mitchell Santner had opted to bat first after winning the toss. India now looks to chase 252 to claim the Champions Trophy title.
