What happens if Champions Trophy 2025 final ends in a draw?
India and New Zealand are set to play the final match of the Champions Trophy 2025 final on Sunday, 9th march, 2025. India enter this matchup with an unbeaten run, and New Zealand aims for a redemption against India for their group stage loss. Let’s take a look at What happens if Champions Trophy 2025 final ends in a draw.
What are we looking at?
Team India enters this matchup with an unbeaten run, they are yet to lose a match in the Dubai International Stadium, Dubai. India managed to overcome their underwhelming Semi-final 1 against Australia, and safeguard their winning streak. New Zealand entered this matchup after beating a strong South African side in the Semi-final 2. Both the teams have been considered as contenders for the title since the start of the tournament.
New Zealand have dominated India in the previous ICC final event, first in the ICC Champions Trophy 2000, and second time in the World Test Championship 2021 final. India will aim to sail past these hardships and win against New Zealand in the final of ICC Champions Trophy 2025.
What happens if the match ends in a draw?
New Zealand lost out on a victory in the 2019 ICC World Cup final, which ended in a tie with England. The match went into a Super Over, which also ended in a tie, and England were declared as winners based on the boundary count rule.
Due to this controversy, the boundary count rule was abolished, and it was decided that in case of a tie, teams would continue playing Super Overs until a winner is determined. This rule will apply in the current ongoing Champions Trophy as well. India and New Zealand will be an exciting tie, which will prove to be beneficial for the game.
