Champions Trophy: Shreyas Iyer Finishes As Second-highest Run-scorer In Tournament

By IANS News March 09, 2025 • 21:38 PM View: 847

ICC Champions Trophy: India batter Shreyas Iyer finished the 2025 ICC Champions Trophy as the second-highest run-getter after playing a knock of 48 runs in the final against New Zealand at Dubai International Stadium on Sunday.

Iyer might have missed out on the much-deserved half-century but he was involved in a crucial 61-run fourth-wicket partnership with Axar Patel in the chase of 252.

India had an electrifying start with captain Rohit Sharma firing on all cylinders in the powerplay. He completed his 58th ODI half-century off 41 balls to set the tone of India's chase.
