Indian team has had a great outing in the 2025 edition of ICC Champions Trophy 2025, winning both their clashes against Bangladesh and Pakistan. The Men in Blue have secured their place in the semifinal, and the clash against New Zealand on 2nd March will decide the table-topping team from Group A. Here are the players to look out for in the clash.
Rachin Ravindra
New Zealand’s left-handed star allrounder Rachin Ravindra is in decent form for the ongoing tournament. He has a great experience in the One-Day format, with an impressive average. It will be interesting to see him perform against the Indian bowling lineup.
Virat Kohli
India’s batting sensation Virat Kohli was seen in high form during the last clash against Pakistan. He smashed an unbeaten century, and will now aim to keep his form and momentum against New Zealand as well.
Mohammed Shami
India’s veteran pacer Mohammed Shami is the player to bring out impressive outcomes. He came strong in India’s champions Trophy campaign, and took a fifer against Pakistan. It would be expected that he brings out some impressive numbers during the clash against New Zealand.
Shubman Gill
India’s vice captain Shubman Gill is in his peak performance as of now. He scored a century in India’s Champions Trophy opening clash against Bangladesh, followed by a score of 46 runs in clash against Pakistan. For the final group-stage match against New Zealand, there will be hopes for him to cause significant impact.
KL Rahul
KL Rahul is going to open the innings for India, as he is the only backup opener in the squad. This comes as there are rumours of Rohit Sharma missing the New Zealand clash due to an injury in his hamstring. If this happens, it would be interesting to watch hoe Rahul performs along with Shubman Gill.
