Kohli falls halfway to record 50th ODI ton

VIRAT KOHLI reached his 71st ODI fifty in Sunday's (12) World Cup clash against the Netherlands but was unable to push on for an all-time record 50th century in the format.

Kohli surpassed South Africa's Quinton de Kock (591) as the leading batsman of the 2023 tournament with 594 runs before left-arm spinner Roelof van der Merwe bowled the star batsman for 51.


The Bengaluru crowd went silent after anticipating Kohli's 50th ODI ton after he equalled Sachin Tendulkar's record of 49 in the team's previous win over South Africa.

India, who have eight wins out of eight matches at the World Cup, will face New Zealand in the first semi-final at Mumbai on Wednesday (15).

UK rental fraud could cost landlords £4.1bn as fake tenant identities grow more sophisticated

  • Suspected rental fraud could expose the UK's private rented sector to £4.1 billion in annual losses.
  • Fake employment references rose 226.6 per cent in 2025.
  • London and high-value rental properties recorded some of the highest fraud rates.

Fraudulent tenancy applications could expose the UK's private rented sector to £4.1 billion in direct financial losses each year, according to an analysis of more than one million tenant references by Goodlord.

The referencing platform found 41 suspected fraudulent applications for every 1,000 references between July 2025 and June 2026. That was below the peak of 46.6 per 1,000 recorded in late 2024, but remained well above historical levels.
