Team India players engaged themselves in an intense practice session ahead of their final group game of Champions Trophy against New Zealand set to take place on March 2, Sunday at the Dubai International Stadium. The striking moment of the session was Mohammed Shami knocking over Virat Kohli's middle stump as the ICC uploaded a video of the same.

Shami, who made his long-standing comeback at the highest level during the limited-overs series against England, looked scratchy. However, the right-arm pacer found his rhythm from the outset in the Champions Trophy, picking up a fifer against Bangladesh. He knocked over Kohli during the practice session even as the latter scored a pristine hundred against Pakistan.

Below is the video of India's practice session:

KL Rahul brushes aside fitness concerns around Rohit Sharma ahead of their final group-stage match

Meanwhile, keeper-batter KL Rahul has issued a significant update on Rohit Sharma's fitness ahead of their final group-stage game against New Zealand on Sunday. With Rohit struggling with hamstring issues during the Pakistan game, he wasn't quite 100% on the field. However, Rahul said the below during the presser on Friday:

"Fitness wise, there are no concerns about anyone missing a game as far as I know."

Should Rohit miss the game against the Black Caps as a precautionary measure, especially ahead of the semi-finals, Shubman Gill will lead the Men in Blue. India's semi-final opponents could be South Africa or Australia, depending upon if they beat the Kiwis on Sunday or not.
