This was only the third century opening stand in a Champions Trophy final, putting India firmly in the driver\u2019s seat. <br \/><span class=\"strong\" data-ua-type=\"1\" onclick=\"stpPgtnAndPrvntDefault(event)\">Go Beyond The Boundary with our YouTube channel. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@toisports\" rel=\"noopener nofollow noreferrer\" styleobj=\"[object Object]\" class=\"\" commonstate=\"[object Object]\" frmappuse=\"1\">SUBSCRIBE NOW!<\/a><br \/><span class=\"strong\" data-ua-type=\"1\" onclick=\"stpPgtnAndPrvntDefault(event)\">Century opening stands in Champions Trophy finals<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"cdatainfo   id-r-component \" data-pos=\"24\">\n<ul>\n<li>141 &#8211; Sourav Ganguly, Sachin Tendulkar (IND) vs NZ, Nairobi, 2000<\/li>\n<li>128 &#8211; Azhar Ali, Fakhar Zaman (PAK) vs IND, The Oval, 2017<\/li>\n<li>105 &#8211; Rohit Sharma, Shubman Gill (IND) vs NZ, Dubai, 2025<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<p>However, New Zealand\u2019s captain <a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/topic\/mitchell-santner\" styleobj=\"[object Object]\" class=\"\" commonstate=\"[object Object]\" frmappuse=\"1\">Mitchell Santner<\/a> provided the breakthrough in the 19th over, dismissing Gill with the help of a breathtaking catch by Glenn Phillips at cover. Phillips pulled off an acrobatic one-handed stunner, leaping high to pluck the ball out of the air just as it seemed destined for the boundary. <br \/>The very next over saw <!-- -->Michael Bracewell<!-- --> strike a decisive blow, trapping Virat Kohli LBW for two-ball 1. Kohli reviewed the decision, but the ball-tracking confirmed it was plumb in front, stunning the Dubai crowd into silence.<br \/>After squeezing the run flow, Rachin Ravindra then ended India skipper&#8217;s innings in the 27th over as Rohit was out stumped while trying to break the shackles. From 105\/0 in 18.3 overs, India were reduced to 122\/3 in 26.1 overs, giving New Zealand a chance to make a comeback in the contest. <br \/>Earlier, New Zealand posted 251\/7, thanks to crucial half-centuries from <a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/topic\/daryl-mitchell\" styleobj=\"[object Object]\" class=\"\" commonstate=\"[object Object]\" frmappuse=\"1\">Daryl Mitchell<\/a> (63 off 101) and Bracewell (53 off 40). India\u2019s spinners, Varun Chakaravarthy (2\/45) and Kuldeep Yadav (2\/40), controlled the middle overs, but Bracewell\u2019s late surge ensured the Kiwis set a competitive target. <br \/>With three quick wickets, New Zealand have clawed back into the contest. India though have a good batting depth, so the Kiwis will need more wickets soon to go on top.<\/div>\n<p><script>\nvar _mfq = window._mfq || [];\n_mfq.push([\"setVariable\", \"toi_titan\", window.location.href]);\n!(function(f, b, e, v, n, t, s) {\n    function loadFBEvents(isFBCampaignActive) {\n      if (!isFBCampaignActive) {\n        return;\n      }\n      (function(f, b, e, v, n, t, s) {\n        if (f.fbq) return;\n        n = f.fbq = function() {\n          n.callMethod ? n.callMethod(...arguments) : n.queue.push(arguments);\n        };\n        if (!f._fbq) f._fbq = n;\n        n.push = n;\n        n.loaded = !0;\n        n.version = '2.0';\n        n.queue = [];\n        t = b.createElement(e);\n        t.async = !0;\n        t.defer = !0;\n        t.src = v;\n        s = b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n        s.parentNode.insertBefore(t, s);\n      })(f, b, e, 'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js', n, t, s);\n      fbq('init', '593671331875494');\n      fbq('track', 'PageView');\n    };\n    function loadGtagEvents(isGoogleCampaignActive) {\n      if (!isGoogleCampaignActive) {\n        return;\n      }\n      var id = document.getElementById('toi-plus-google-campaign');\n      if (id) {\n        return;\n      }\n      (function(f, b, e, v, n, t, s) {\n        t = b.createElement(e);\n        t.async = !0;\n        t.defer = !0;\n        t.src = v;\n        t.id = 'toi-plus-google-campaign';\n        s = b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n        s.parentNode.insertBefore(t, s);\n      })(f, b, e, 'https:\/\/www.googletagmanager.com\/gtag\/js?id=AW-877820074', n, t, s);\n    };\n    function loadSurvicateJs(allowedSurvicateSections = []){\n      const section =  window.location.pathname.split('\/')[1]\n      const isHomePageAllowed = window.location.pathname === '\/' && allowedSurvicateSections.includes('homepage')\n      if(allowedSurvicateSections.includes(section) || isHomePageAllowed){\n        (function(w) {\n         function setAttributes() {\n                    var prime_user_status = window.isPrime ?
