Rachin Ravindra scored a second hundred in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. After his three-digit score against Bangladesh, he amassed another ton in the second semi-final against South Africa. After losing Will Young, he added a 130-plus run partnership with former captain Kane Williamson, who scored a fifty.

Rachin faced 93 balls and hit 12 fours and 1 six in his magnificent knock. The southpaw had missed the games against Pakistan and India due to his injury in the tri-series. He was hit in the face after misjudging a catch in a match between Pakistan and New Zealand.

After recovering, he was added to the playing XI for the game against the Tigers, and he punished the bowlers. Rachin didn’t stop against the Proteas and dominated the pacers and spinners.

He amassed three centuries in the 2023 ODI World Cup and has added another two hundreds in the next ICC ODI tournament.
