Pitch Report
The pitch in Dubai have helped the spinners more than the pacers. The grounds have been dry and not that simple for batting. The plus point with India is that they have played all their matches at the same ground, even though the grounds were different.
It is the same pitch played between India and Pakistan, with the latter easily chasing down just over 240 with six wickets in hand. As expected, it helped the spinners; the wrist spinners got more out of the surface.
Teams and Squad
Here below is the possible XI for both teams:
| India Squad | New Zealand Squad |

Match Preview
India and New Zealand have been the two top teams of the Champions Trophy 2025 and are worthy of reaching the tournament finals. For the second time in the tournament, Dubai International Cricket Stadium will be the venue for these two teams.
Meanwhile, New Zealand are sweating over the fitness of Matt Henry. The right-arm pacer injured his right shoulder while attempting Heinrich Klaasen’s catch during the second semi-final in Lahore. He is the tournament’s leading wicket-taker with ten wickets, including a five-wicket haul against India in the group stages.
Rohit Sharma has not been fortunate with the coin tosses, while the New Zealand captain Santner would also wish not to find himself in a decision-making dilemma. In the event that the Indian captain loses yet another toss, he will join Brian Lara in the record for losing the most consecutive tosses in the format.
India won all four of their matches and are the lone unbeaten side in the competition. They lost all the tosses, although Mitchell Santner was the lone captain to ask the Rohit Sharma-led side to bat.
