In a display of resilience and skill, India secured their third Champions Trophy title, outplaying New Zealand in a nail-biting final match. The game, held on Sunday, saw India's Rohit Sharma lead his team to a four-wicket win, underlining their dominance throughout the tournament.

The Indian bowlers laid the groundwork for success, with Kuldeep Yadav and Varun Chakravarthy playing crucial roles in limiting New Zealand to 251. Despite a solid start and key performances by Daryl Mitchell and Michael Bracewell, New Zealand's inability to capitalize mid-innings cost them dearly.

Chasing 252, India encountered challenges but Rohit's determined 83-ball 76 set the tone. KL Rahul's steady 34 not out ensured there were no last-minute surprises as India comfortably reached the target, reaffirming their status as champions.
