    Champions Trophy Final: India Favourite, But Can’t Underestimate NZ, Says Manoj Tiwary

    ICC Champions Trophy: Former India cricketer Manoj Tiwary believes that the Rohit Sharma-led Indian team is the outright favourite to lift the ICC Champions Trophy but warned that New Zealand can't be underestimated in the grand finale at the Dubai International Stadium on Sunday.

    Expressing his confidence in Team India, Tiwary added, “India is the top contender. The way they have played in this Champions Trophy shows their dominance. But being the favourite also brings added pressure. On the other hand, New Zealand has nothing to lose, so the pressure will be on India. Since it's an ICC trophy, the real challenge for India can come from either Australia or New Zealand. The Blackcaps should not be taken lightly," Tiwary told IANS.

    Tiwary also emphasized the importance of playing cautiously against New Zealand’s star spinner, Mitchell Santner. “India should continue playing the way they have been. Santner is a key bowler for them. The Indian batsmen should play him wisely rather than aggressively, as he is a quality spinner who traps batsmen with his skills.”
