New Zealand seamer Kyle Jamieson has put down an absolute sitter in the 2025 Champions Trophy final against India, giving Shreyas Iyer a lifeline in the contest. A video of the same surfaced on social media as Glenn Phillips, the bowler looked on in disbelief as the towering seamer had potentially also dropped the match.

The moment occurred in the 37th over of the innings as Shreyas Iyer hacked one to long-on right after hitting a maximum. Jamieson had reached the ball and got both hands to it but could not hold on. With the Men in Blue still needing over 80 runs, the Black Caps had the opportunity to shift the pressure on India.

Although Iyer was handed a lifeline on 44, he was eventually dismissed by Mitchell Santner for 48.

Below is the video of the same:

"This is a gettable score" - Varun Chakravarthy after India restrict New Zealand to 251

Wrist-spinner Varun Chakravarthy, who took two vital wickets, explained his approach in the first innings, claiming that all he did was keeping it simple and wait for the batters to make mistakes. The 33-year-old told the host broadcaster:

"It was a good wicket compared to the last one. It was not turning much. I was just trying to stick it in the wicket and wait for the batter to make a mistake. I like bowling in the death and powerplay. It is challenging and gives me more opportunity to get a wicket. I like talking to Kuldeep. I am pretty new to the setup and looking to build more bonds. The foot is a little sore, need more painkillers. This is a gettable score."

Daryl Mitchell (63) and Michael Bracewell (58) scored half-centuries to propel the Black Caps to a competitive score. Kuldeep Yadav was the pick of the Indian bowlers with figures of 10-0-40-2.
