Video: Kane Williamson's Comical Reaction Viral While Fielding In IND vs NZ Champions Trophy 2025 Clash

Veteran New Zealand batter Kane Williamson's comical reaction went viral as he reacted hilariously after being hit while fielding during India's innings in the Champions Trophy 2025 clash on Sunday in Dubai. A video of the same surfaced on social media as Glenn Phillips was also in splits looking at Williamson's reaction.

With Will O'Rourke bowling a length delivery outside off-stump, Hardik Pandya cut it hard. Although Williamson stopped the ball and prevented Pandya from taking any run, the fielding had an effect on his hand, given how hard the seam-bowling all-rounder had hit it.

Below is the video of the same:

Kane Williamson to have an important role as New Zealand chase a stiff target in Dubai

Meanwhile, the 34-year-old will have a critical role to play if New Zealand are to beat India on Sunday in Dubai. The toss went in favour of the Kiwis as Mitchell Santner opted to bowl first. The first 6.4 overs saw India getting reduced to a precarious 30/3 and Virat Kohli's dismissal was the striking point as Glenn Phillips took a spectacular catch to dismiss him.

Shreyas Iyer counterattacked with 79 and found vital contributions from Axar Patel (42) and Hardik Pandya (45) but Matt Henry equally stood out by taking five wickets, restricting the Men in Blue to 249/9. The winner of Sunday's match in Dubai will face Australia, while the loser will face South Africa.

South Africa had sealed the last semi-final spot on Saturday by defeating England in Karachi, eliminating Afghanistan.
