The cricketing world is abuzz with excitement as India prepares to clash with New Zealand in the final of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. Scheduled for the Dubai International Stadium, this high-stakes game promises to be a spectacle, with India looking to secure another title and New Zealand hoping to break their final hoodoo.
In the stands for this exhilarating match is Anushka Sharma, who has consistently cheered on her husband, Virat Kohli, throughout the tournament. On this occasion, she attended in a stylish denim ensemble, highlighting her fashion sense while showing unwavering support. Photographers captured her enthusiastic waving from the audience as the match unfolded.
Earlier in the tournament, during the first semi-final on March 4, Anushka was spotted at the Dubai International Stadium, where India faced Australia. From her VIP seat, she exuberantly supported the Men in Blue, who emerged victorious, setting the stage for the final. Kohli’s performance was pivotal, earning him the Player of the Match title for his impressive 84 runs.
India’s journey to the final has been marked by various thrilling matches, including a memorable encounter against their long-standing rivals, Pakistan. During the Group A match on February 23, India triumphed with a six-wicket victory, spearheaded by Kohli’s remarkable century, securing India crucial points in the tournament.
In that match, Pakistan batted first, managing to put up a total of 241 runs, bolstered by contributions from Saud Shakeel and Mohammad Rizwan. However, India’s batting depth proved too strong, with Kohli leading the chase seamlessly alongside Shreyas Iyer, who added a solid 56 runs. This reaffirmed India’s status as a strong contender for the trophy.
