India had won the Champions Trophy on June 23, 2013, and with this win, MS Dhoni became the first skipper to win all three major cricketing trophies-ICC Men's 50-over World Cup, ICC T20 World Cup, and Champions Trophy. The Men in Blue had defeated England in the finals of Champions Trophy by five runs. This was the second time India lifted the Champions Trophy title. MS Dhoni became just the second skipper in the history of cricket to lift the Champions Trophy twice. Before him, Australia had won the tournament twice.
