Divya Delhi:  Team India head coach Gautam Gambhir labeled Ravindra Jadeja a “top arounder” before the ICC Champions Trophy final 2025 against New Zealand in Dubai. India will meet New Zealand in the ICC Champions Trophy final on March 9 at Dubai International Stadium. Under Mitchell Santner's leadership, the Kiwis have played well with bat and ball and India has gone undefeated. New Zealand won the 2000 ICC Champions Trophy final, thus the match will be epic. Men in Blue want to avenge 2019 ICC Cricket World Cup semifinal and 2021 ICC World Test Championship final losses against the Blackcaps. “I always thought he was under the radar. I guess we don't endorse him. See what he's done to Indian cricket in test, T20, and 50-over formats. He has contributed to Indian cricket both with a bat and ball and in the field. I consider him a top cricket all-rounder. Ravindra Jadeja is valued in the locker room. “It’s not what happens outside the dressing room,” Gautam Gambhir remarked in an ICC Instagram video. Jadeja has taken four wickets in four matches at 38.25 in the Champions Trophy 2025, including 2/40 in the semi-final against Australia. Southpaw batters scored 16 runs in two innings.
