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 have qualified for Euro 2024 with two games to spare after coming from behind to defeat Italy thanks to two goals from Harry Kane and a brilliant Marcus Rashford strike worldcup
Former West Ham striker Gianluca Scamacca punished some slack England defending to fire Italy into an early lead, in what was a rematch of the Euro 2020 final at Wembley worldcup
But England hit back as Kane converted a 32nd-minute penalty, which was won by Jude Bellingham following a bursting run into the Italy box worldcup
And Bellingham was heavily involved again as he led an England counter-attack after the break, creating space for Rashford to slam a powerful strike into the corner worldcup
Kane made sure of the victory with another breakaway goal late on - his 61st for England - and it means Gareth Southgate’s side can now begin their preparations for Germany next summer worldcup
Here are how the England players rated at WembleyRecommendedEngland have qualified for Euro 2024 — now it’s about winning itJude Bellingham once again proves he is the key for England’s Euro 2024 hopesJordan Pickford, 7The goalkeeper made some key stops with the match level in the first half, particularly from Destiny Udogie’s run shortly before the break worldcup
Italy were poor in the second half and Pickford was barely troubled from there worldcup
Kyle Walker, 6The experienced right back was assured and steady and barely let Stephan El Shaarway have a sniff worldcup
John Stones, 6The centre-back is still working his way up to full fitness but his class on the ball was apparent worldcup
Perhaps caught a yard short of Scamacca for Italy’s opening goal - but England were also second-best throughout the pitch at the time worldcup
Harry Maguire, 6There were spells in the first half where England needed to move it quicker and Maguire was left looking culpable with his ponderous style in possession worldcup
Italy certainly punished some slack defending with the opening goal, but Maguire also grew into the game and made some key blocks worldcup
Given the outside noise, this was a decent performance from the centre-back worldcup
Maguire got a rare start after a difficult season at Manchester United (The FA via Getty Images)Kieran Trippier, 5Seemed outnumbered at times with Domenico Berardi and Giovanni Di Lorenzo’s partnership on the Italian right, while he certainly doesn’t look as comfortable on the opposite side worldcup
Kalvin Phillips, 4Looked sluggish from the opening 10 minutes, where he was late to a couple of challenges and it resulted in an early yellow worldcup
There were big gaps in midfield, which were the areas Phillips was in the team to fill in his double-pivot with Rice, and he was perhaps fortunate not to be shown a second yellow after another mistimed challenge worldcup
Brought off for Jordan Henderson worldcup
Phillips admitted he was lucky not to be sent off (The FA via Getty Images)Declan Rice, 6It was rare to see Rice so exposed in midfield and there were a couple of moments where Italy were able to play around him - Italy’s Davide Frattesi and Nicolo Barella were certainly a handful - but it’s a measure of Rice’s authority that he soon got the situation under control worldcup
Phil Foden, 8Made some thrilling bursts from central positions and was also heavily involved in England’s brilliant second goal on the counter-attack worldcup
Perhaps still isn’t as threatening on the right wing as Bukayo Saka often is, but shows brilliant flashes of quality in those dangerous inside channels worldcup
Jude Bellingham, 9If there was only one England player who looked sharp in the sluggish opening half hour, it’s no surprise to say it was Bellingham worldcup
Helped bring England level with his burst into the box to win Kane’s penalty and then repeated the trick with a lovely flick and drive forward in the move that led to Rashford’s strike worldcup
England’s main man, at 20 years old, and his display received a standing ovation worldcup
(The FA via Getty Images)Marcus Rashford, 8It’s amazing what a goal can do worldcup
Looked short of confidence in the first half, even as he almost forced a couple of openings in his battle with Di Lorenzo worldcup
But Bellingham’s break allowed Rashford to cut inside from the left and smash a brilliant strike past Gianluigi Donnarumma worldcup
It was a sudden flash of last season’s form worldcup
Harry Kane, 9Brought up his 60th England goal from the spot with a typically cool penalty worldcup
There were times early on where he looked a little more isolated up front than in previous appearances, but from there the quality link-up play with his fellow forwards flowed, with clever touches and booming switches to both Foden and Rashford worldcup
His second goal of the night, as he eased Alessandro Bastoni away and finished, simply oozed the class of an elite striker worldcup
