<p><strong>World Cup 2023 Points Table Updated: </strong>Team India has now officially qualified for the World Cup 2023 Semi-Finals after mocking Sri Lanka, once again, at the Wankhede Stadium. The Indians ruthlessly demolished the entire Sri Lankan unit and secured a fairly easy victory by 302 runs. The win helped India qualify for the semi-finals and again reclaim the top spot in the World Cup 2023 Points Table. </p>

<p>It just became the action replay of the IND vs SL that happened during the Asia Cup 2023 in Colombo. The only difference was that last time India batted second, which was the other way around this time. </p>



<p>Sri Lankan captain Kusal Mendis won the toss and opted to bat first, which turned out to be a disastrous decision for his team. Under the lights, the ball moved a lot more than in the first innings.</p>



<p>Team India posted 357 runs total against Sri Lanka after the completion of 50 overs. Opener Shubman Gill top scored the innings with the knock of 92 runs, while Virat Kohli and Shreyas Iyer contributed with 88 and 82 runs innings respectively. Later in the innings, Ravindra Jadeja played a handy knock, scoring 35 runs in 24 deliveries and taking the overall total of the team to 357 runs.</p>



<p>Speedster Dilshan Madhushanka scalped five wickets in the process while Dusmantha Chameera too got a wicket.</p>



<p>Sri Lanka were always going to be under pressure with such a big total in front of them. This got even more bothering with the Indian pacers breathing fire at the Wankhede Stadium.</p>



<p>The tone for the Sri Lankan innings was set straightaway by Jasprit Bumrah, who trapped Prathum Nissanka LBW in the first delivery of the innings. Mohammad Siraj was too quick to pounce on the opportunity and joined forces with Bumrah to dismantle the Sri Lankan batting unit.</p>



<p>In his first over he removed Dimuth Karunaratne and Kusal Mendis to make the cricket scoreboard look like a football one. Then in the fourth over, Siraj again picked a dismissal of Sadeera Samarawickrama, and the opposition was on the brink of another collapse.</p>



<p>Soon Mohammad Shami, also, entered the party with two consecutive wickets in his first over of the game. He later removed three more Sri Lankan batters cheaply and made a mock of the entire Sri Lankan batting unit. </p>



<p>The sublime bowling effort from team India reduced Sri Lanka to an embarrassing total of 55 runs and India won the game by a massive 302 runs.</p>



<p>Pacer Mohammad Shami was awarded the Player of the Match trophy for his second five-wicket haul in the ongoing World Cup and an overall third in the World Cups.</p>

<p>With the win, Team India became the first team to officially qualify for the World Cup 2023 semi-finals. Additionally, the Men in Blue reclaimed their topmost spot in the World Cup 2023 Points Table with seven victories in as many matches. Notably, Rohit Sharma and his men are the only team to remain undefeated in the ongoing tournament.</p>



<p>Talking about Sri Lanka, they are on the brink of getting eliminated. They have secured just two wins so far and the highest they can now get is eight points if they manage to win their remaining two games. This will bring net run-rate into play, which is also not favouring the former World Cup champions. So it looks all pale and tough for the Sri Lankans.</p>

<p><strong>World Cup 2023 Points Table Updated: </strong>Another good day in business for Team India as they conquered South Africa at the Eden Gardens by 243 runs. Just another fantastic day in business for Rohit Sharma and his boys as they confirmed the top finish in the World Cup 2023 Points Table. </p>



<div class="wp-block-rank-math-toc-block" id="rank-math-toc"><h2><strong>Table of Contents</strong></h2><nav><ul><li class=""><a href="#team-india-confirms-top-spot-in-the-points-table-world-cup-2023">Team India Confirms Top Spot in the Points Table World Cup 2023</a></li><li class=""><a href="#world-cup-2023-points-table-updated-after-ind-vs-sa">World Cup 2023 Points Table Updated after IND vs SA</a></li><li class=""><a href="#most-hundreds-in-world-cup-2023-rank-1-10">Most Hundreds in World Cup 2023 ?

<p>The game proceeded with India winning the toss and opting to bat first against South Africa. Skipper Rohit Sharma was right on the money from the word go and launched an attack on the opposition to score quick runs in the powerplay. Though the captain couldn't stay long, he ensured that his team was off to a flyer with the knock of 24-ball 40-run innings.</p>



<p>Virat Kohli and Shubman Gill picked from Rohit left, but soon the latter was also removed by Keshav Maharaj. Kohli then joined forces with Shreyas Iyer to add 134 runs to the team's total for the third wicket. Shreyas Iyer played a fantastic innings of 77 runs in 87 deliveries before getting dismissed.</p>



<p>Kohli continued his stay in the crease and completed his 49th ODI century and equalled Sachin Tendulkar's record of the most number of tons in the ODI career. He remained unbeaten at 101 runs in 121 deliveries. Towards the end, Suryakumar Yadav and Ravindra Jadeja added handy runs - 22 and 29 respectively - and took the team's overall total to 326 in 50 overs.</p>



<p>After the batters had a brilliant outing, it was time for the Indian bowlers to shine and demolish the South African batters. The Men in Blue started with the wicket of Quinton de Kock off Mohammad Siraj's bowling. </p>



<p>The Proteas never looked settled while chasing the big total against India and lost wickets on the bounce. No batter could even touch the 15-run mark as India registered a big win by 243 runs.</p>



<p>Ravindra Jadeja became the chief architect of the victory with a five-wicket haul while Mohammad Shami and Kuldeep Yadav scalped two each and one wicket went to Mohammad Siraj.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="team-india-confirms-top-spot-in-the-points-table-world-cup-2023"><strong>Team India Confirms Top Spot in the Points Table World Cup 2023</strong></h2>

<p>India's win over South Africa ensured that the hosts will remain afloat at the top of the points table of World Cup 2023 till the end of the league stage. India also remained unscathed in the tournament with eight dominating victories in as many matches. Their only remaining fixture is with the Netherlands, which will be held on November 12.</p>



<p>South Africa, on the other side, though, has sealed the semi-final berth, but they might be a little frustrated with their performance while chasing. In the three games they have chased in the ongoing World Cup 2023, two have resulted in a hammering loss, while on one occasion they could barely cross the line by 1 wicket.</p>



<p>The South Africans will play their last game of the World Cup 2023 against Afghanistan on November 10.</p>

World Cup 2023 Points Table Updated (November 6) after IND vs SA, India confirms TOP Spot in Points Table, World Cup 2023 Most Hundreds

world-cup-2023-points-table-updated-november-6-after-ind-vs-sa-india-confirms-top-spot-in-points-table-world-cup-2023-most-hundreds

<p>Test cricket is the premier format of the game, and it has been played for over 150 years or more. That is why over time, this format has seen many changes and updates. The batsmanship has changed over the years. But we are blessed to have some of the best test batters in modern-day cricket as well.</p>
<p>Indian legend Sachin Tendulkar holds the record of most centuries in test cricket. He retired with 51 centuries, followed by Jacques Kallis (45) and Ricky Ponting (41). But after that, there are 13 batters with 30 or more centuries in test cricket.</p>
<p>But who has the most Test hundreds among active players? All four members of the "Fab Four" certainly feature on this list. But who ranked at the top? In this article we will talk about the top five active batters with the most centuries in test cricket.</p>
<h2>Top Five Batters with Most 100s in Test Cricket</h2>
<p><strong>5. Cheteshwar Pujara - 19 Centuries</strong></p>
<p>The Indian veteran batter Cheteshwar Pujara ranked fifth on this list. He had an incredible career for India and scored runs everywhere in the last decade. His form declined, and he is not part of the team at the moment. He has played 103 tests for India and scored 7195 runs at an average of 43.60 with 19 centuries and 35 half-centuries.</p>
<p><strong>4. Virat Kohli - 30 Centuries</strong></p>
<p>There was a time in 2019 when Virat Kohli had the most test centuries among the active cricket. But his three-year century drought and the form didn't help him in the last five years or so. Virat has slipped to fourth place. He has 30 centuries and 31 half-centuries in 121 matches with 9166 runs at an average of 47.49.</p>
<p><strong>3. Steve Smith - 33 Centuries</strong></p>
<p>Australian superstar batter Steve Smith was once regarded as the best test batter in the current generation. But his form also was not up to the mark in the last few years. But still, he is among the top. Smith has 33 centuries in test cricket in 112 games with 9805 runs at an average of 56.35. He also has scored 41 half-centuries.</p>
<p><strong>2. Kane Williamson - 33 Centuries</strong></p>
<p>Former Kiwi captain Kane Williamson is certainly the most underrated batter on this list. He does his job quietly and has been a run machine for his country in this format. Williamson has been superb in the last few years and is scoring runs at will. He has reached 33 centuries in just 105 games and is the fastest to reach this mark. He has scored 9276 runs at an average of 54.88, along with 37 half-centuries.</p>
<p><strong>1. Joe Root - 36 Centuries</strong></p>
<p>The last few years have seen Joe Root 2.0, who has been exceptional and unstoppable in test cricket. He is climbing up very fast, and we might see him reaching near Sachin Tendulkar in a few big test records. At the moment, Root has 36 centuries in 152 games and has scored 12,918 runs at an average of 50.85 along with 64 half-centuries.</p>
