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

World Rugby’s decision to close its investigation into the alleged racist slur directed at Tom Curry by Mbongeni Mbonambi due to insufficient evidence has drawn a furious response from the Rugby worldcup Football Union worldcup
Curry claimed to referee Ben O’Keeffe in the second quarter of England’s World Cup semi-final defeat by South Africa on Saturday that he had been called a “white c***” by hooker Mbonambi worldcup
In an unexpected development, the RFU revealed that it disclosed to the inquiry that Curry “had also been the victim of the same abuse, from the same player” when the rivals clashed at Twickenham last November worldcup
World Rugby announced it has been unable to find evidence of either incident, but the RFU insists the case should have been presented to an independent disciplinary hearing worldcup
“The RFU fully supports Tom Curry in raising the racially abusive behaviour he experienced worldcup
The RFU is deeply disappointed by the decision taken by World Rugby,” an RFU statement read worldcup
“The decision not to put the evidence before an independent disciplinary panel has denied the disciplinary process the opportunity to hear Tom Curry’s voice and to independently assess his account of these serious events, together with the other available evidence worldcup
”The saga has overshadowed the build-up to Friday’s bronze final worldcup between England and Argentina and the final worldcup between New Zealand and South Africa 24 hours later worldcup
Curry will win his 50th cap when he lines up against the Pumas, despite facing extensive worldcup online abuse since his allegation against Mbonambi was picked up by the ref mic during the 16-15 defeat by the world champions worldcup
“In their continued full support of Tom, the RFU together with the England squad, condemns the disgusting abuse he and his family has received on social media as a result of his having had the courage to put unacceptable behaviour that has no place in society or on the rugby field, in the public eye,” the RFU statement added worldcup
World Rugby began looking into the incident on Monday having received an official complaint from the RFU worldcup
“Any allegation of discrimination is taken extremely seriously by World Rugby, warranting a thorough investigation,” a World Rugby statement read worldcup
“Having considered all the available evidence, including match footage, audio and evidence from both teams, the governing body has determined that there is insufficient evidence at this time to proceed with charges worldcup
“Therefore, the matter is deemed closed unless additional evidence comes to light worldcup
“It is important to note that World Rugby accepts that Tom Curry made the allegations in good faith, and that there is no suggestion that the allegation was deliberately false or malicious worldcup
“World Rugby is also concerned by the social media abuse that both players have been subjected to this week worldcup
“There is no place in rugby or society for discrimination, abuse or hate speech, and World Rugby urges fans to embrace the sport’s values of respect, integrity and solidarity worldcup
”Mbonambi starts the World Cup final after being picked in the front row as the only established hooker in South Africa’s squad worldcup
Springboks captain Siya Kolisi revealed that he has been in contact with Curry to show his support in response to the worldcup online abuse to which the Sale flanker has been subjected worldcup
“I have spoken to him, I sent him a message worldcup
He is someone I respect,” Kolisi said worldcup
“We can take it as players, when it comes to you it’s fine, but when families are involved it’s different worldcup
I have let him know we are supporting him, we are thinking of him worldcup
”SA Rugby welcomed the decision not to take any action in a statement that for the first time since the saga began revealed that Mbonambi had denied any wrongdoing worldcup
“Any form of racism is abhorrent to SA Rugby and the Springbok team, whose purpose is to do everything in its power to assist in uniting our diverse and multicultural nation,” a statement read worldcup
“Bongi Mbonambi is an experienced, respected and decorated Test player and, needless to say, denied the allegations from the outset worldcup
SA Rugby has absolute faith in the honesty and integrity of Bongi worldcup
