Virat Kohli hit 95 to lead India to a four-wicket victory over New Zealand and a fifth win in five matches at the World Cup on Sunday although the superstar batsman just missed equalling Sachin Tendulkar's record of 49 one-day international centuries. Fast bowler Mohammed Shami returned figures of 5-54 to help bowl out New Zealand for 273, a total India overhauled with 12 balls to spare in Dharamsala. The Kiwis, who rode on Daryl Mitchell's 130 to post 273, suffered their first loss in five matches and are second behind leaders India in the 10-team table.
Indian pacer Mohammed Shami has had a dream start to his Cricket World Cup 2023 campaign. The right-arm pacer, who warmed the bench during the first four matches of India, finally got a chance in the fifth game of the team - against New Zealand at the Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium in Dharamsala. Shami got off to a superb start as he took the wicket of Will Young. A short of length delivery from the pacer around off stump saw Young getting an inside edge on the ball that hit the stumps eventually.

The Indian cricket team's selection committee has never been away from criticism and the MSK Prasad-led panel was no exception. The team selection during the 2019 ODI World Cup put the committee under scanner as it dropped an experienced player Ambati Rayudu, India's number 4 batter, and included all-rounder Vijay Shankar in the squad instead. Gautam Gambhir, while commentating during the India vs New Zealand 2023 Cricket World Cup match in Dharamsala on Sunday, criticised the MSK Prasad-led panel by calling it the "worst selection committee".
India's legendary spinner Harbhajan Singh has heaped praises on country's star batter Virat Kohli.

The legend of Kohli continued to grow exponentially as he reached within handshaking distance of Sachin Tendulkar's world record of 49 hundreds during India's walk-in-the-park seven-wicket victory over Bangladesh in a World Cup game in Pune on Thursday. Kohli, who plans 50-over chases with a precision of a surgeon, remained unbeaten on 103 off 97 balls as India knocked off the 258-run target with as many as 51 balls remaining.
