The second semifinal of the 2025 Champions Trophy will be an interesting clash, with both teams eyeing their first victory in a limited-overs ICC tournament.

With quality spinners like Keshav Maharaj and Tabraiz Shamsi awaiting the Kiwi batters, Santner addressed the challenge that awaits his side.
