India Script Unwanted Champions Trophy Record In Final vs New Zealand
With India and New Zealand battling it out in the final of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 at Dubai International Stadium on Sunday, the Rohit Sharma-led side may be left to rue their fielding efforts after putting down four catches in the first innings as half-centuries from Daryl Mitchell (63) and Michael Bracewell (53 not out) powered Blackcaps to 251/7 in 50 overs. The Rohit-led side dropped four chances during the summit clash, taking their tally to nine dropped catches in the campaign, the most by any team. They also have the third lowest catch efficiency rate in eight-team competition with 70 per cent ahead of only Bangladesh and Pakistan.
