What is the prize money for the winner of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025?
India will battle New Zealand to be sown in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 final on Sunday, March 9, at the Dubai International Stadium. It will mark the third ICC event final between these two cricketing giants, giving it prospective appeal beyond all limits of intellect. For India, an opportunity presents for further glory, inside the point, maximally to hammer home the establishment of further authority-their dire Champions Trophy title.
However, if New Zealand had captured cricket’s glittering prize, they would have grabbed this trophy for the second time, which was last won in 2000. Hence, with history and rivalry matched onto a plate of record-setting prize money, cricket fandom can be sure to brace itself for a true dream contest!
India vs New Zealand – A Rivalry Reignited
The final of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 will be the second time that India and New Zealand meet each other in the final of this tournament. The first one was in 2000 when the Stephen Fleming-led New Zealand defeated Sourav Ganguly’s India to get their first ICC trophy inside Nairobi’s Gymkhana Ground. It’s a golden opportunity for India to avenge past defeats and secure back-to-back ICC trophies after their T20 World Cup 2024 victory.
An excellent run by the Men in Blue this time, as they have reached four consecutive ICC finals after two losses in the 2023 World Test Championship and the 2023 ODI World Cup finals at the hands of Australia. New Zealand has continued to show themselves as one of the most consistent teams in ICC tournaments. Will the Black Caps grab yet another ICC trophy, or will India finally work its way past that jinx and grab itself another title?
