The final of the Champions Trophy to be played between India and New Zealand will be played on the pitch used in Dubai. Team India has clashed with Pakistan here. In such a situation, Indian spinners will be seen showing their prowess once again.
The final of the Champions Trophy will be played between India and New Zealand on March 9 at the Dubai International Stadium. There is still time for the match, but before that it has been decided on which pitch the match will be played.
After the pitch report came out, it has also become clear whether it will be helpful for the spinners or the batsmen will dominate. The special thing is that the pitch on which the final match will be played is not new. Earlier, a league match has been played on this pitch, which Team India won. Team India must have breathed a sigh of relief after the pitch came out. But defeating New Zealand is not going to be easy.
The final of the Champions Trophy will be played on the same pitch used during the India vs Pakistan match
The news is coming that the final match between India and New Zealand will be played on the same pitch, which was used during the match between India and Pakistan. This match was held on 23 February and India won this match easily. It is expected that this pitch will be helpful for spinners and a very big score will not be made here. The pitch will be slow, this is a good thing for India, but New Zealand also has many good spinners, who can trouble the batsmen of Team India.
Team India defeated Pakistan badly
In the India vs Pakistan match, Pakistani captain Mohammad Rizwan won the toss and decided to bat first. Except Saud Shakeel, no other batsman could even complete the figure of 50. Indian spinners showed amazing performance on this pitch.
While Kuldeep Yadav took three wickets, Axar Patel and Ravindra Jadeja also got one wicket each. That is, a total of five wickets came in the account of spinners. Then Team India came into the field with three pacers and three spinners, but Varun Chakraborty has also come in the playing eleven of the Indian team. Who can prove to be a trump card. If New Zealand batsmen are seen dancing on the signal of Varun Chakraborty, then it will not be a big deal.
Virat Kohli had scored a century on this pitch, Shreyas also scored a half-century
In response to the 241 runs scored by Pakistan in this match, Team India scored 244 runs in 42.2 overs and won the match by six wickets. Virat Kohli scored an unbeaten 100 and Shreyas Iyer scored 56 runs in this match. Even though Team India won this match, but Pakistan’s spinners also batted well. Abrar Ahmed took one wicket for only 28 runs in 10 overs. Therefore, India will have to play carefully.
A score of 250 will be safe to a great extent on this pitch
So far, in all the matches of Champions Trophy held in Dubai, the magic of spinners has been seen and not a very big score has been made. The average score on this Dubai pitch has been 246 runs, which is very low for ODIs. After the pitch has been decided, it has now been confirmed that Team India will once again enter the field with four spinners. In such a situation, the chances of India’s victory seem high. Now it remains to be seen what strategy the two captains adopt during the match.
