India batter Jemimah Rodrigues has signed a last-minute deal to play for Northern Superchargers in the upcoming Hundred tournament in England, replacing Australia's Heather Graham. The 22-year-old Rodrigues was among the leading run-scorer in the inaugural season of the Hundred but missed a major chunk of the competition last year due to a wrist injury. According to espncricinfo.com, the Northern Superchargers had opted against retaining the Indian batter ahead of the draft in March this year, but have been able to bring her back in their side as an injury replacement.
Pace veteran Stuart Broad emerged as the first England bowler to complete 150 wickets in his Ashes career on Friday and the only third bowler to accomplish the landmark.

Now in 40 Ashes matches, Broad has taken 151 wickets at an average of 28.81, with the best bowling figures of 8/15. He has taken six four-wicket hauls and eight five-wicket hauls in his Ashes career.

Kishan scored 52 off 46 balls as India chased down the total inside 23 overs.

India will organise the Olympics in future, Sports Minister Anurag Thakur said on Thursday, insisting that hosting quality tournaments across various disciplines will help the country become a sporting super power. Earlier this month, Australia's Victoria state withdrew as host of the 2026 Commonwealth Games due to increasing cost. Replying to PTI's query if India is thinking of hosting the 2026 CWG, Thakur said "India will organise the Olympics in future." "We are working in that direction and when the right time comes we will give you the good news. India wants to host the Olympics.
