Pakistan vs Australia: Injured Steve Smith ruled out of white-ball series in Pakistan

Steve Smith will miss the one-day and T20 matches against Pakistan to manage a left elbow injury, the team said on Saturday. Smith experienced some discomfort during the latter stages of Australia's 1-0 win in the three-match Test series against Pakistan, team physiotherapist Alex Kontouris said. “Given he had an injury with the same elbow last year, we felt it important to manage this proactively," Kontouris said in a statement.

IPL 2022: Time for Hardik Pandya 2.0

Hardik Pandya on television these days. “Jahan game on hai, wahan pohochna hai (you’ve got to reach wherever the game’s on).” A scrawny kid running after an autorickshaw, a motor van, to catch a train, running between the wickets, running in to bowl, running to his teammates in jubilation. Just running the distance. Running all the time. Until 2015, the year he made his Mumbai Indians debut, Pandya lived a life running against all odds. Between 2015 and last year, he ran with those very odds stacked in his favour. From here, he has to run to draw some semblance to the journey so far.

Iga Swiatek Becomes New WTA World No.1 With Miami Open Win

Poland's Iga Swiatek became the new world number one in women's tennis on Friday by defeating swiss Viktorija Golubic 6-2, 6-0 at the WTA Miami Open. Swiatek will move into the top spot vacated by Australian Ashleigh Barty after the three-time Grand Slam champion announced her retirement earlier this week. The 20-year-old Warsaw-born star had to win her second-round match at the South Florida hardcourt tournament to ensure she would replace Barty. Swiatek will be the first Polish woman to reach the rankings summit, eclipsing the old mark for players from her homeland she shared with former world number two Agnieszka Radwanska.
