Virat Kohli\u2019s crafty 95 trumped Daryl Mitchell\u2019s rapid 130 as India beat New Zealand by four wickets in a top-of-the-table clash in the 50-overs World Cup on Sunday.<\/p>\n

Kohli could not complete the chase but his matured knock helped India to reach a victory target of 274 with two overs to spare to maintain their unbeaten run in the tournament.<\/p>\n

Mitchell smashed a rapid hundred before New Zealand were all out for 273 in a clash of previously unbeaten sides.<\/p>\n

Electing to field, India removed both the openers early but were sloppy on the field, dropping three catches to let New Zealand off the hook.<\/p>\n

Mitchell forged a 159-run partnership with Rachin Ravindra (75) and New Zealand, sitting pretty at 205-3 in the 37th over, looked poised for a 300-plus total before Indian bowlers applied the brake.<\/p>\n

Mohammed Shami led that effort, claiming 5-54 in his first match of the tournament.<\/p>\n

Skipper Rohit Sharma (46) led India\u2019s rollicking start but it was Kohli\u2019s fourth 50-plus score in five innings that helped to inflict on New Zealand their first defeat of the tournament.<\/p>\n

India made two changes after they lost star all-rounder Hardik Pandya due to an ankle injury<\/a> and has not travelled with the team to the Himalayan venue.<\/p>\n

Twenty20 batting sensation Suryakumar Yadav and fast bowler Mohammed Shami make the team in place of Pandya and Shardul Thakur.<\/p>\n

The Kiwis come in unchanged from their previous<\/a> win over Afghanistan. They have three seamers led by Trent Boult and two spinners.<\/p>\n

Regular captain Kane Williamson is sidelined<\/a> with a fractured thumb.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe were here training yesterday and felt that a bit of dew comes in,\u201d Rohit said at the toss. \u201cLooks like a good pitch, we\u2019ll back ourselves to chase.\u201d<\/p>\n

Stand-in New Zealand skipper Tom Latham said he also would have bowled first had he won the toss, but they are looking to keep the \u201cmomentum going\u201d.<\/p>\n

The Black Caps have an edge in World Cup match-ups with a 5-3 advantage and knocked out<\/a> India in the semi-finals of the last edition in 2019.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
