Afghanistan's Rashid Khan longs for more Test opportunities

Rashid has played all five of Afghanistan's Tests since the country was granted full membership of the governing International Cricket Council (ICC) in 2017. They were scheduled to play a one-off Test in Hobart in November but Cricket Australia postponed the match citing uncertainty over the future of women's cricket under Afghanistan's Taliban rule. Rashid lamented missing out on an opportunity to Test his craft against the likes of Steve Smith and Marnus Labuschagne.

Main issue with football in India is league structure, says AIFF's Kushal Das

All India Football Federation (AIFF) general secretary Kushal Das on Friday said that the main issue with football in the country is the lack of a robust league structure. The Indian men's football league system consists of three divisions (Indian Super League, I-league and I-League 2nd Division), besides the Indian Women's League (IWL). Currently ranked 106th in the FIFA chart, the men's national team is aiming to qualify for its second successive AFC Asian Cup finals and are clubbed with Afghanistan (150), Cambodia (171) Hong Kong (147) in Group D for the qualifiers in June.
