Novak Djokovic To Face Indian-Origin Teenager In Australian Open Round 1
World number one Jannik Sinner was drawn Thursday against big-hitting Nicolas Jarry to start his Australian Open defence while Novak Djokovic is on a collision course to meet Carlos Alcaraz in the quarter-finals.

Meanwhile, Djokovic is set to face American teenager Nishesh Basavareddy, whose parents hail from Nellore, India. But the top seed will begin his title defence under a doping cloud after twice testing positive for traces of the steroid clostebol in March.

Rohit Sharma's 'Selfless' Act During Australia Test Series Faces Brutal Criticism: "Why Should A Youngster..."
Indian cricket team skipper Rohit Sharma had a horrible outing during the recently concluded Test series against Australia where he scored just 31 runs in 3 matches. After missing the first match, he failed to score big in the second match and even dropping himself to No. 6 did not help his case. The situation was so bad that he opted out of the final Test match in Sydney - an act that was hailed as 'selfless' by his teammates and some of the experts. However, according to a report by Indian Express, the gesture was not appreciated by everyone as a former player gave a brutal verdict on Rohit's decision.

Australia reclaimed the Border-Gavaskar trophy after 10 years with a six-wicket win over India in the fifth and final Test.
