The New Zealand batter continued to have an eventful outing shortly after Shami's over. He was given out caught behind on the bowling of Varun Chakravarthy but he used DRS to get the third umpire to overturn the decision. Just one delivery later, Rachin looked to dispatch Varun for a six before being dropped by Shreyas Iyer near the boundary rope.

India's decisive moments in the ICC Champions Trophy final against New Zealand included Kuldeep Yadav and Varun Chakravarthy's impactful spin, Rohit Sharma’s explosive start with the bat, and the composed middle-overs play of Shreyas Iyer.
