IND vs NZ: What is India’s record in ICC finals?

India vs New Zealand will be second straight final for both teams in T20 World Cup 2026.

The Indian Cricket Team and the New Zealand Cricket Team are all set to clash with each other in the final of the T20 World Cup 2026. The two teams will be up against each other at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Sunday, 8 March.

India and New Zealand have been in red-hot form in the tournament and it promises to be an exciting encounter. Both teams displayed a magical performance in the semi-final and would want to outplay each other in the final. 

India registered a 7-run win over England in the semi-final. They posted a massive total of 253 runs on the board, and then England gave them a tough fight but thankfully they sealed the game by a margin of 7 runs.

New Zealand, on the other hand, completed a dominating win in the semi-final. They thumped South Africa by 9 wickets and would be keen to carry on that same confidence and head into the final on a high. 

What is India’s record in ICC finals?

India has featured in the final of ICC events on 14 occasions. They have a decent record in the final as they have registered six wins while seven games have ended in defeat as well. One encounter also ended in no result.   

The first-ever ICC title for India came in 1983 when they won the ODI World Cup. After that, they won the T20 World Cup 2007. They also won the ICC Champions Trophy 2013 and then won the T20 World Cup in 2024.
