At the same time, the last match of the group stage will be played between the two teams on March 2 on the Dubai ground. In this match, where the attempt of Team India will be on retaining the rhythm of their victory, then to finish the top in the group. The New Zealand team has also seen a unilateral performance in the tournament so far, in which they defeated the first host Pakistan, while defeating Bangladesh in the second match. In such a situation, all the fans are also eyeing this match. At the same time, there is a situation of suspense on the playing of Team India captain Rohit Sharma and Mohammad Shami in this match, about which KL Rahul has now cleared the situation in the press conference.
All players are fully fit
KL Rahul said in response to the question asked about the fitness of Team India’s players in a press conference against New Zealand that as far as I know there is no concern about any player’s fitness. All the players were in the gym and were training. Right now everything is fine from the perspective of fitness. Let me tell you that during the match against Pakistan, captain Rohit Sharma was seen in a little problem due to haemstring, while Mohammed Shami was also in the dressing room for some time. Due to this, there was a situation of doubt on the fitness of both these players.
Rahul gave this answer when Pant, Chakraborty and Sundar do not get a chance in playing 11
The Indian team has played 2 matches in the Champions Trophy 2025 so far in which they did not make any changes in playing 11. On this, when Rahul was asked questions on not getting a chance to Rishabh Pant, Varun Chakraborty and Washington Sundar in the press conference, he said, “I am not a part of the leadership team.” I have been in this situation first when you have a chance to try players. However, I do not have the champions in Tophy or not. We have got a break of one day before the semi -finals, so from this match we want all the players to get a chance but this is my view.
