A win for India would make them the first team to clinch three Champions Trophy titles, surpassing Australia’s two.
New Zealand made 265 runs in 2000. Both teams have shown explosive batting performances, making 300+ a real possibility.
Kyle Mills and Jerome Taylor took 4 wickets each in 2009 and 2006 finals. Mohammad Shami or Varun Chakravarthy could break this record if the pitch offers early movement.
The Champions Trophy final offers India a golden opportunity to secure their first-ever ICC tournament final victory against the Black Caps.
