Virat Kohli made a masterful 95 and Mohammed Shami claimed 5-54 as World Cup hosts India beat New Zealand by four wickets in Dharamsala.
Kohli hit two sixes and eight fours in another classy knock to put India on the brink of victory as they chased down a target of 274.
Shami earlier started with the ball as Daryl Mitchell’s 130 made up the bulk of New Zealand’s runs.
Table toppers India are the only unbeaten side left after five matches.
Fog briefly stopped play during India’s reply but Kohli’s mind remained clear as he played a big hand in the highest successful chase in a one-day international at this ground.
He produced another stellar innings and now has 354 runs at an average of 118 in a tournament on which he looks set to leave an indelible mark.
Rohit Sharma…
