    After Rachin Ravindra: Former winner New Zealand set up a meeting with India in the final of the 2025 Champions Trophy in Dubai after beating South Africa by 50 runs in the second semi-final at the Gaddafi Stadium here on Wednesday.

    After Rachin Ravindra smashed his fifth ODI hundred and second ton of the tournament, and Kane Williamson notched up his third century in a row against South Africa to take New Zealand to 362/6, the highest total in the competition’s history, the Proteas ended up at 312/9, with David Miller's unbeaten century coming off 67 balls going in vain.

    For the Blackcaps, who won the title in 2000, captain Mitchell Santner was the pick of bowlers with 3-43, while Glenn Phillips and Matt Henry took two wickets each. Michael Bracewell and Rachin Ravindra bagged a scalp each as New Zealand got a clinical win and set up their meeting with India for the second time in the tournament.
