The win follows India&#8217;s <!-- -->T20 World Cup<!-- --> victory in 2024, underlining their resurgence in global cricket.<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 \/>India also avenged their defeat to New Zealand in the 2000 Champions Trophy final, which remains the Kiwis\u2019 only ICC limited-overs title. <br \/>The latest triumph adds another feather to India\u2019s ICC trophy cabinet, which now boasts two ODI World Cups, two T20 World Cups, and three Champions Trophy titles, reaffirming their status as one of the world&#8217;s most successful cricketing nations.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/topic\/rohit-sharma\" styleobj=\"[object Object]\" class=\"strong \" commonstate=\"[object Object]\" frmappuse=\"1\">Rohit Sharma<\/a><span class=\"strong \" data-ua-type=\"1\" onclick=\"stpPgtnAndPrvntDefault(event)\"> leads from the front<\/span><br \/>Chasing 252, India reached the target with an over to spare, as all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja hit the winning boundary off William O&#8217;Rourke in the penultimate over. Captain Rohit Sharma led the chase with a composed 76 off 83 balls, forging a 105-run opening stand with Shubman Gill (31 off 50).<br \/>New Zealand fought back with their spinners, as Mitchell Santner (2\/46), Michael Bracewell (2\/28), and Rachin Ravindra (1\/47) applied pressure with timely wickets. However, Shreyas Iyer (48 off 62) and Axar Patel (29 off 40) steadied India&#8217;s innings after a brief collapse. KL Rahul (34 not out) and Hardik Pandya (18) then played vital cameos to guide India over the line.<br \/><span class=\"strong\" data-ua-type=\"1\" onclick=\"stpPgtnAndPrvntDefault(event)\">New Zealand\u2019s fight with the bat<\/span><br \/>Earlier, Daryl Mitchell and Michael Bracewell struck crucial half-centuries to propel New Zealand to a competitive total of 251\/7. <br \/>Opting to bat first, the Kiwis started well, with Rachin Ravindra (37 off 29) and Will Young (15 off 23) adding 57 runs for the first wicket. However, India&#8217;s spinners wrested control, as Varun Chakaravarthy (2\/45) and Kuldeep Yadav (2\/40) dismantled the middle order.<br \/>Kuldeep struck immediately, dismissing Ravindra and later removing Kane Williamson (11). Varun provided the early breakthrough by trapping Young LBW before sending back Glenn Phillips (34). At 165\/5 in the 38th over, New Zealand was in trouble. Mitchell\u2019s patient 63 off 101 balls and Bracewell\u2019s counter-attacking 53 not out off 40 helped their team recover. Their 46-run stand for the sixth wicket added stability, with Bracewell\u2019s late blitz of two sixes and three fours pushing the total past 250.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"strong\" data-ua-type=\"1\" onclick=\"stpPgtnAndPrvntDefault(event)\">A long wait ends for India, another begins for New Zealand<\/span><br \/>While India celebrated an end to their 12-year wait for an ODI trophy, New Zealand\u2019s search for an elusive ODI title continues. Their last ICC final triumph came in the 2021 World Test Championship.<br \/>With this latest triumph, India\u2019s dominance in world cricket is firmly re-established. Having won two ICC titles in under a year, they now set their sights on defending their T20 World Cup crown in 2026 and adding to their rich legacy.<\/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 ?
