Man United pep talk, glossy photoshoots, US Open prize money - inside the rise of Jack Draper
In an Olympic summer, baton passing has not strictly been reserved for Paris 2024, which provided a final chapter for Andy Murray before the British tennis icon retired. Emerging from the shadow in his own right, Jack Draper has become British No.1 and global recognition is gathering more pace than his trademark serve.
208 Balls, 4 Runs: English Father-Son Duo Rise To Fame After Hilariously Slow Innings
The record of the most balls faced without scoring a single run in Tests is held by former New Zealand pacer Geoff Allott, who did not score a run despite facing 77 balls. That innings, against South Africa in Auckland in 2006, also holds the record of the least runs scored per minute in Test history, with Allott having batted 101 minutes. However, both of these records would seem paltry to what father-son duo Ian and Thomas Bestwick put up in a valiant display of old school first-class cricket - the art of defensive batting.
"Was Exposed To A Lot Of Trolling": KL Rahul Opens Up On Social Media Abuse

"Haven't Learnt Our Lesson": Pakistan Captain's Scathing Verdict After Bangladesh Loss
Pakistan cricket team captain Shan Masood was left extremely disappointed as his side slumped to a crushing 0-2 Test series loss against Bangladesh in Rawalpindi on Tuesday. In the first Test, Pakistan's decision to declare their first innings at 448/6 backfired completely as Bangladesh scored a mammoth 565 and then produced a brilliant bowling performance to win the game by 10 wickets. Things did not improve in the second Test as Bangladesh once again excelled with both bat and ball to clinch the match by six wickets. Following the match, Masood said that Pakistan have not learnt their lessons from the past losses and added that they have continuously failed to get over the line in Test matches.
