IND vs NZ Dream11: Top 3 captaincy picks, Final, ODI Champions Cup 2025

The final of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, IND vs NZ, is scheduled to be played on Sunday in Dubai.
We are just a few hours away from witnessing the two best teams coming up against each other in the final showdown of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. India and New Zealand, who were part of Group A, have made it to the final.
The final contest will be played on Sunday at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium (DICS), Dubai. This match will be the center event on all fantasy cricket platforms, and everyone will be waiting for this clash.
You need a good team to do well on fantasy cricket platforms. Especially the right captain for the Dream11 teams to win big. In this article, we will talk about three potential captaincy picks for the IND vs NZ game on Sunday.
Top three Dream11 captaincy picks for IND v NZ, Final, ICC Champions Trophy 2025
1. Rachin Ravindra
The Kiwi opener has been in great form with the bat. He now has five centuries in 13 matches at ICC ODI events, which is the most for a Kiwi batter. Ravindra has scored two centuries in three innings and is the second-highest scorer in the ongoing tournament.
He has earned the most fantasy cricket points among the players in two teams. Rachin is also a good player of spin, which makes him a key batter for New Zealand. He is a good choice for captaincy for the IND vs NZ final.
2. Virat Kohli
Virat Kohli has earned the most fantasy cricket points (377) in this tournament from India. That is because of the two MOTM performances in four games. He likes doing well in big games, and the Indian middle order relies heavily on him.
With his experience and form, he can be a great pick as captain of Dream11 teams. Virat won the MOTM award in the final of the ICC T20 World Cup 2024, which India won. He has shown great application and technique to score runs in Dubai, which makes him an ideal captain pick for Dream11 teams.
3. Axar Patel
Axar Patel is earning an average of 90.25 fantasy cricket points every game in the ongoing tournament. He has earned 80, 74, 117, and 90 fantasy cricket points in four games played so far. This will be a pressure game, and he has shown great maturity on the big stage.
India are using his batting more, and his bowling in Dubai is always a key for the Men in Blue. That makes him a perfect option to make captain of IND vs NZ Dream11 teams.
