New Zealand's 'Top Performer' Injured, Doubtful For Champions Trophy Final Against India

New Zealand are "hopeful" pace bowler Matt Henry will recover from a shoulder injury in time for their Champions Trophy final against India on Sunday, coach Gary Stead said. Henry is racing to be fit for the title clash in Dubai after injuring his right shoulder while taking a catch in the semi-final win over South Africa on Wednesday. Henry has been key to New Zealand's hopes in the 50-over tournament and returned figures of 5-42 against India in a dead-rubber group match that the Black Caps lost.

Kane Williamson vs Indian Spinners, Watch Out For The Battle Within Battle In Champions Trophy Final

The showdown between Indian spinners and Kane Williamson will be intense on a gripping DICS pitch, but beyond the personal realm, it also has the potential to decide the outcome of the Champions Trophy final in Dubai on Sunday. New Zealand is eager to end their 25-year-long wait for an ICC 50-over title after bagging the ICC Knockouts Trophy in Kenya, beating India by four wickets in 2000. On the other hand, India are gunning for their second Champions Trophy since 2013 and they could be fielding four spinners and two pacers for the ICC showpiece final here on Sunday.

India Face Huge Challenge, Aim To Break 37-Year-Old Curse In Champions Trophy 2025 Final

India are attempting to break a 37-year-old curse as they take on New Zealand in the Champions Trophy 2025 final in Dubai on Sunday, March 9. Team India enter the game as favourites, having won seven ODIs in a row en route to the final. However, India do not enjoy a great record against New Zealand when it comes to tournament finals. In fact, the men in blue have not beaten the Kiwis in an international cricket final since 1988. India and New Zealand have faced off twice in the final of a major senior ICC event, and the Black Caps have won on both occasions. Overall, New Zealand lead India 3-1 when it comes to finals in international cricket.

"There's No Doubt That...": New Zealand Coach's Blunt Take On 'Unfair Advantage' Row

New Zealand coach Gary Stead conceded that Varun Chakravarthy will be a “big threat” in the Champions Trophy final, and the Kiwis will put on their “thinking caps” to work on the ways to negate India's mystery spinner. India will face New Zealand in the final of the ICC showpiece here on Sunday. “We certainly expect him to play after getting 5/42 against us in the last game. He's a class bowler, and showed his skills against us last time and he's a big threat in the game,” Stead told reporters on Friday. “So we'll be putting our thinking caps on around how we nullify that and how we can still score runs against him,” he added.

He said that India have not produced a lot of wickets in the middle overs despite keeping the runs in check and also pointed out the lack of successful partnerships for the opening wicket. He also demanded more wickets with the new ball from the pacers in the first 10 overs.

"India've Played All Their Games Here": New Zealand Star's Big Dubai Pitch Verdict Ahead Of Champions Trophy Final

New Zealand skipper Mitchell Santner on Thursday acknowledged India's familiarity with the slow pitch here at the DICS, but said his side is ready for a "scrap" in the Champions Trophy final. The Kiwis arrived here on Thursday evening ahead of the ICC showpiece's title clash against India on March 9. "They've played all their games here in Dubai and know that surface. Obviously, the surface will dictate a little bit of how we want to operate. It might be a little bit slower than what we got in Lahore. It might be more of a scrap, but we're down to scrap," Santner said after touching base in the city.

Suryakumar Yadav Wishes India Luck Ahead Of Champions Trophy Final, Praises Rohit Sharma's Fitness

India T20I captain Suryakumar Yadav wished Men in Blue luck ahead of their ICC Champions Trophy final against New Zealand and also lauded skipper Rohit Sharma's fitness and contributions as captain in recent years, which include taking India to the final of all ICC tournaments during his tenure. India will be playing New Zealand in the final of the ICC Champions Trophy on March 9 at Dubai International Stadium. With India being undefeated in the tournament so far and the Kiwis having looked rock solid with bat and ball under the captaincy of Mitchell Santner, the clash promises to be an epic sequel to their 2000 ICC Champions Trophy final, when NZ won. Men in Blue would like to avenge losses to the Blackcaps in the 2019 ICC Cricket World Cup semifinal and 2021 ICC World Test Championship final.
