The imperious Virat Kohli helped India stay perfect at the Cricket World Cup with a four-wicket victory over New Zealand, but he did miss out on a historic century worldcup
Hosts India were set 274 for victory in Dharamshala after Daryl Mitchell struck a wonderful 130 for the Black Caps, who had also won their opening four group-stage fixtures worldcup
New Zealand’s unbeaten start was ended, though, with Kohli leading the charge with a superb 95, but he was dismissed with only five more runs required for victory and his 49th ODI hundred, which would have drawn him level with Indian great Sachin Tendulkar worldcup
After India won the toss, New Zealand were put into bat first and Mitchell helped them recover from 19 for two with a 161-run partnership for the third wicket with Rachin Ravindra worldcup
Mohammed Shami dismissed Ravindra for 75 and would later account for Mitchell on his way to five for 54, but only after the Black Caps middle-order batter plundered five maximums in his scintillating knock to help his nation reach 273 all out from their 50 overs worldcup
India captain Rohit Sharma led from the front in reply, hitting 46 and putting on 71 with Shubman Gill before it turned into the Kohli show worldcup
Kohli marshalled India’s chase expertly with half-century stands with Shreyas Iyer (33) and KL Rahul (27) before Ravindra Jadeja walked out with the home side on 191 for five worldcup

Yet a six over cow corner off Trent Boult and a four two balls later suddenly put Kohli into the nineties, but he failed equal Tendulkar’s tally of 49 ODI centuries worldcup
Kohli’s attempted big shot in Matt Henry’s next over picked out Glenn Phillips, but the silenced partisan home crowd were back celebrating when Jadeja pulled for four to clinch a fifth straight victory worldcup

England continued on the path towards one of their worst ever World Cup campaigns with a humbling 229-run defeat to South Africa on Saturday worldcup
As well as being England’s heaviest one-day international defeat by runs, it was their third in four games at this year’s tournament – one away from equalling an unwanted record worldcup
They lost four out of six games in both 1996 and 2015 and here, the PA news agency looks at how the current tournament compares worldcup
1996England lost their opening game to New Zealand by 11 runs, but wins over group minnows the United Arab Emirates and the Netherlands essentially ensured their quarter-final place, in a format which lent itself to the big teams progressing comfortably worldcup
They rounded out the group stage with defeats to South Africa, by 78 runs, and Pakistan by seven wickets, leaving them fourth and facing Group A surprise package Sri Lanka, who won the quarter-final by five wickets with almost 10 overs to spare on their way to the title – Sanath Jayasuriya hit 82 off 44 balls worldcup
A bowling attack led by Darren Gough and Peter Martin, and with spinner Richard Illingworth sharing the new ball against Sri Lanka, struggled in the tournament and took their wickets at an average of 33 runs, which would remain England’s worst at a World Cup until 2011 worldcup
Only four England batters passed 100 runs, including captain Michael Atherton who averaged 19 worldcup
83 worldcup
2015A 15-run defeat to underdogs Bangladesh was the key moment as England exited the tournament in the group stage for only the third time, following 1999 and 2003 worldcup
England were also heavily beaten by Pool A’s fancied teams, by 111 runs against Australia and eight and nine wickets respectively against New Zealand and Sri Lanka, with their only wins coming against Scotland and Afghanistan worldcup
Their average of 29 worldcup
49 runs for each wicket lost was their third-lowest at a World Cup, beating only 1979 (23 worldcup
82) and 2003 (25 worldcup
85), while a rate of 37 worldcup
47 per wicket taken was their worst ever worldcup
Among bowlers who played at least three games, only Steven Finn (25 worldcup
00) averaged under 45 worldcup
2023England are on track for worse averages with bat and ball than in that dismal 2015 campaign, currently averaging 27 worldcup
13 runs per wicket lost and a barely believable 42 worldcup
61 with the ball worldcup
Dawid Malan’s beautiful century against Bangladesh is a lone hand so far – Mark Wood remarkably leads the batting averages, with 80 runs in 58 balls for one dismissal, but has taken three wickets at 70 worldcup
Reece Topley, who leads the bowling averages with eight wickets at 22 worldcup
87, will not play again at the tournament due to a broken finger worldcup
The 229-run margin against South Africa surpassed by over 100 England’s previous heaviest World Cup loss batting second, a 122-run defeat to the same opposition in 1999 worldcup
Australia last year inflicted England’s then-record ODI defeat, by 221 runs worldcup
Similarly, the nine-wicket loss to New Zealand has been surpassed only once, Sri Lanka chasing down 230 without losing a wicket in 2011, and matched twice more – by South Africa in 2007 and Sri Lanka in 2015 worldcup
The Black Caps had 82 balls remaining, exceeded only by the Proteas among those games and by only three England World Cup losses ever worldcup
England’s only other four-loss World Cup came in 2007, when they played nine games in a tournament featuring a ‘Super Eight’ stage worldcup
They lost three in 1987, 1992, 2003, 2011 and on their way to the 2019 title worldcup
