India beat New Zealand by four wickets to win the Champions Trophy at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium in a nervy final on Sunday.

Captain Rohit Sharma (76) top-scored for India, who chased down their 252-run target with one over to spare.

Winners of the upcoming Champions Trophy will walk away with a whopping $2.24 million cash reward after the International Cricket Council (ICC) announced a 53 per cent hike in its prize money pool for the eight-team tournament starting February 19. The winners' purse would be close to 20 crore in Indian currency.


The runners-up, New Zealand, will receive half the amount, $1.12 million (INR 9.72 crore), while each losing semi-finalist will take home USD 560,000 (INR 4.86 crore).

"The substantial prize pot underscores the ICC's ongoing commitment to investing in the sport and maintaining the global prestige of our events," ICC chairman Jay Shah said in a statement ahead of the tournament which will be held in Pakistan and the UAE.

Each group stage win would be worth over USD 34,000 (INR 30 lakh) for the victorious team.
