As South Africa's latest Major winner, Ashleigh Buhai, prepares to defend her title at the British Open in August, she can look back on what she calls "the best eight months" of her career, and hopes her achievements have sparked some inspiration among the country's women's golfers.
Two of the French Open title favourites are safely through to the third round after Iga Swiatek and Elena Rybakina both secured comfortable straight-set wins on Thursday.
Outside the French Open press room this week, it was a sweltering 30 degrees.
Red Bull could win every grand prix this season but are unlikely to do so, Formula One championship leader Max Verstappen said on Thursday.
Wicketkeeper-batter Ishan Kishan was recently seen having a whack at the nets on Thursday as Team India gear up for the World Test Championship (WTC) final against Australia at the Oval on June 7. The WTC final between Australia and India is set to take place between June 7 and 11, with June 12 earmarked as the reserve day. The International Cricket Council (ICC) on Thursday shared a short clip on their social media handle where India batter Ishan Kishan was seen preparing for the high-profile clash with Australia. The batter looked in rich form, hitting the ball nicely both in front and square off the wicket.
The absence of the dashing Rishabh Pant, who is recovering from injuries sustained in a car accident in December, leaves a big void in India's Test eleven, said Matthew Hayden, who is backing Ishan Kishan to don the wicketkeeping gloves instead of K S Bharat. "One of the big losses to Indian cricket right now is Rishabh Pant. If I was an Indian selector, I certainly go with the more dynamic wicketkeeper batter Ishan Kishan, he also adds that bit of swagger to the batting line up and in the fielding unit as well." The spinners could play a role at The Oval as the game progresses and that is why Hayden said India must play both Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja.
Switching from playing T20s to the longest format of the game is difficult but practising with the red ball through the IPL will help in the tough transition at the World Test Championship final against Australia, feels India all-rounder Axar Patel. Most members of the Indian team head to the marquee event after playing T20 cricket in the IPL for over two months. Additionally, while the SG balls are used to play the red-ball format in India, the Dukes ball will be used for the WTC final. However, India are well prepared for the twin challenges. To familiarise themselves with the Dukes ball, which is used in English conditions, the 'Men in Blue' have been working with it.
The new jersey designs for the Indian cricket team was revealed on Thursday evening. The jersey has been designed by new kit sponsors Adidas. This time around, India will have distinctively separate designs of jerseys for ODIs and T20Is. The men's Indian cricket team will wear the newly designed jerseys starting from the World Test Championship final against Australia, that begins at The Oval from June 7. The jerseys have three stripes in all of them which is related to its new kit sponsors Adidas.
