On Sunday, March 9, in Dubai, India won their third Champions Trophy, which they shared with Sri Lanka. The Men in Blue won the 2025 Champions Trophy after defeating the BlackCaps by four wickets.
As they pursued a score of 252 on a difficult surface, Rohit came out firing against the new ball and put pressure on the bowlers from New Zealand. He reached his half-century in just forty-one balls. The Indian captain was dismissed for 76 off 83 deliveries after hitting three sixes and seven fours.
It was Rohit’s maiden half-century in the eighth Champions Trophy.
Jay Shah, the chairman of the Board of Control for Cricket (BCCI), was seen hugging Shreyas Iyer and then winking at the camera in a widely shared video taken after the game, when all of the players were on the field celebrating. Fans have responded to this in a variety of ways on social media, with some referring to him as a “script writer.”

Every time Team India participates in a competition, supporters create memes claiming that Jay Shah, the BCCI Chairman, will work some magic in India’s benefit. Following India’s four-wicket triumph against New Zealand in the 2025 Champions Trophy finals on Sunday, the same incident took place.
The Indian team won the Champions Trophy finals by four wickets thanks to a brilliant half-century from Rohit Sharma, who performed one of the best performances in the history of the competition while chasing a target of 252 runs. Notably, the team captained by Rohit Sharma has won every match in the competition after defeating Australia in the semifinals and defeating Bangladesh, Pakistan, and New Zealand in their group. They won the title after defeating New Zealand once more in the finals.
