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

Newcastle suffered a home Champions League defeat to Borussia Dortmund at St James’ Park, in a result that blew Group F wide open worldcup
After an exhilarating opening spell where Anthony Gordon forced visiting goalkeeper Gregor Kobel into two saves, Dortmund took a deserved lead when Felix Nmecha guided a precise finish into the corner on the counter-attack worldcup
Newcastle struggled to create chances after half-time, with Callum Wilson wasting the best of them with a shot that was straight at goalkeeper Kobel worldcup
Wilson then struck the bar with a late header before Gordon’s deflected effort also hit the bar in stoppage time - but Eddie Howe’s side were unable to find an equaliser worldcup
The defeat leaves Newcastle in third place in Group F behind Paris Saint-Germain and Dortmund, who will host the Premier League side in the return fixture in two weeks’ time worldcup
Here are how the Newcastle players rated in the 1-0 defeat worldcup
Newcastle United player ratingsNick Pope, 7The goalkeeper made a stunning double save to deny Niclas Fullkrug and Donyell Malen, instinctively flicking both close-range shots off his goalline worldcup
There was nothing he could do about Nmecha’s first-time finish into the corner, however worldcup
Keiran Trippier, 4Newcastle missed his influence and the right-back’s delivery, both from set-pieces and open play, was below its usual level worldcup
Jamaal Lascelles, 5The stand-in defender was immense against PSG but struggled more tonight, in what was a reality check for Newcastle on the whole worldcup
Fabian Schar, 7The centre-back needed to be perfect when committing to a couple of sliding challenges but was faultless throughout against a dangerous Dortmund attack worldcup
Dan Burn, 4The full-back had a busy night up against the terrific Malen and Marco Reus and did not look comfortable with the pace of the German side worldcup
Sean Longstaff, 4Not his night - lacked his usual sharpness in possession as Newcastle struggled to match Dortmund’s busy midfield worldcup
Replaced by Sandro Tonali shortly after the hour worldcup
Bruno Guimaraes, 4Tried his best to get Newcastle going but struggled to produce his usual quality from deep positions worldcup
Passes had to be played to perfection on such a quick pitch, while the Brazilian was otherwise sloppy worldcup
Joelinton, 5Helped drive Newcastle forward from midfield and picked up possession in threatening positions but struggled defensively with the numbers that Dortmund were committing to attack - Nmecha’s opener exposed that he was missing from the edge of the box after the German side launched a swift counter worldcup
Miguel Almiron, 7Sparked the match into life with his first touches coming off the right wing and was involved in nearly all of Newcastle’s threatening moments worldcup
The accuracy of the final ball eluded him, however, but he was not the only one worldcup
Alexander Isak, N/AThe tall and rangy striker looked perfect for an open contest and led Newcastle well from the front in the opening exchanges, however his night came to an early end and he was replaced by Callum Wilson midway through the first half worldcup
Newcastle lacked a spark from there worldcup
Anthony Gordon, 8The winger played with the energy he helped whip up at St James’ Park - this was another lively performance and he was Newcastle’s best player on the night worldcup
Still, Gordon should have done worldcup better after being played in by Isak, in the second of two chances that brought a save from Kobel worldcup
There remains a question over his end product worldcup

Matt Targett - 7: Added width to Newcastle’s attack after replacing Burn at left back and produced the first good Newcastle delivery of the night with his free kick for Wilson’s header worldcup
