Team India middle-order batter Shreyas Iyer has allegedly denied the BCCI president Roger Binny’s gesture to put white winners coat on him during the Champions Trophy 2025 presentation ceremony after the thrilling final at the Dubai International Stadium on Sunday,

Rohit Sharma finally produced an innings of note after a series of starts, posting 76 with Shreyas Iyer rescuing India from a wobble with a fine 48 as India defeated New Zealand by four wickets after being set a competitive 252 to win at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium on Sunday.

New Zealand beat India 3-0 in a test series in its own backyard, a feat never registered before. India went on to lose in Australia. Both series defeats cost India a spot in the World Test Championship final. It has only gained little redemption in reaching the Champions Trophy final here.
