Virat Kohli scored a record-breaking 50th one-day international (ODI) hundred and Mohammed Shami took seven wickets as India beat New Zealand by 70 runs to reach the Cricket World Cup final on Wednesday.<\/p>\n
Kohli made 117 to surpass the ODI century record he had shared with India great Sachin Tendulkar, and Shreyas Iyer clubbed a rapid 105 in a commanding total of 397-4.<\/p>\n
New Zealand were then dismissed for 327 despite Daryl Michell\u2019s 134 with paceman Shami taking a sensational career-best 7-57.<\/p>\n
The Black Caps had hope of an improbable win during a third-wicket stand of 181 between captain Kane Williamson and Mitchell at the Wankhede Stadium.<\/p>\n
Shami, however, all but ended the chase with two wickets in three balls during the 33rd over.<\/p>\n
Star batsman Williamson fell for 69 when he flicked Shami \u2014 who had dropped him on 52 \u2014 straight to Suryakumar Yadav at deep square leg.<\/p>\n
And 220-3 became 220-4 when Shami had Tom Latham lbw for a duck.<\/p>\n
Shami then went on to better his previous ODI best of 5-18 against Sri Lanka at the Wankhede earlier in the tournament by dismissing Mitchell, Southee and last man Lockie Ferguson.<\/p>\n
In Sunday\u2019s final, India will face either Australia or South Africa who play their semi-final on Thursday.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
