Watch: Glenn Phillips turns into a bird to take a blinder and dismiss Shubman Gill

New Zealand National Cricket Team player Glenn Phillips came up with another stunner but this time at the biggest stage in the final of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 against India National Cricket Team. The match between the teams is taking place at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium in Dubai

The ICC Champions Trophy 2025 final is keeping everyone engaged with both the teams giving their best. After restricting New Zealand to a total of 251 runs, India were off to a flying start with the bat, with Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill playing a magnificent brand of cricket.

Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill added 105 runs for the opening wicket and with the way they were batting, it needed a moment of brilliance to break the partnership. However, Glenn Phillips came exactly with them as he produced a stunner to send India's vice-captain packing.

On the fourth ball of the 19th over, Mitchell Santner bowled a flighted delivery on off, to which Shubman Gill drilled the drive towards cover. Not many expected that it would be a catch but Glenn Phillips came up with the magical effort to pick the stunner.

Glenn Phillips dived to his right, but even after that, the ball was still clearing him. He, then, leapt across, went one-handed and plucked a blinder. The New Zealand player was at his acrobatic best as he stunned Shubman Gill, along with India fans.

Shubman Gill played a decent hand for India, ends with the innings of 31 runs off 50 balls

Shubman Gill played a decent hand for India in the final as he ended with an innings of 31 runs off 50 balls. The vice-captain of the team also slammed one six in his innings, providing great support to skipper Rohit Sharma, who played a match-winning knock of 76 runs.

After the wicket of Shubman Gill, India came under pressure as Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma also fell early. But Shreyas Iyer steadied the ship with his brilliant innings of 48 runs as he continued his golden form with the bat in the tournament and became the leading run-getter for India in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025.

Axar Patel (29) supported him well as the duo added 61 runs for the fourth wicket. In the end, KL Rahul (33*) and Hardik Pandya (18) finished the innings on high as India won the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 by the margin of four wickets and 6 balls to spare.

This was the second consecutive ICC event victory for India, having won the ICC T20 World 2024 last year. Skipper Rohit Sharma also joined MS Dhoni as an India captain with multiple ICC events under his belt.
