The highly anticipated match is considered one of the greatest rivalries, and the contest is expected to get much hotter in Dubai.

Champions Trophy favourites India have eased to a six-wicket win over Bangladesh in their opening match in Dubai, thanks to an unbeaten ton from Shubman Gill.

Pakistan will kick off their ICC Champions Trophy 2025 journey with a high-stakes clash against New Zealand on February 19 at the National Stadium in Karachi. However, the two teams enter the tournament riding vastly different waves of momentum.

Fakhar Zaman seems almost unable to run between the wickets while Babar Azam has started to look good but New Zealand's sensational fielders have made sure that he doesn't find the boundary very often.
