India had beaten England by 5 runs in the rain-curtailed final at Edgbaston last night to win the ICC Champions Trophy. For India, Shikhar Dhawan received the Golden Bat with a total of 363 runs from five matches. Ravindra Jadeja was declared the ‘Man of The Match’ and received the Golden Ball too for taking 12 wickets in the tournament.
This is the second time India won this tournament. Earlier in 2002, they had to share the trophy with Sri Lanka after rains washed out the final.
