Emma Navarro Stunned By Wildcard, Novak Djokovic-Nick Kyrgios Doubles Run Ends At Brisbane
Australian wildcard Kimberly Birrell stunned second seed Emma Navarro on Wednesday while the doubles act of Novak Djokovic and Nick Kyrgios came to a shuddering halt at the Brisbane International. But it was all smiles from defending men's champion Grigor Dimitrov, who powered into the quarter-finals in straight sets. In the opening match on Pat Rafter Arena, Birrell matched world number eight Navarro stroke-for-stroke to put a dent in the American's Australian Open preparations. Navarro had a stellar 2024, going deep in all four Grand Slams including a run to the semi-finals of the US Open. She was expected to brush aside the challenge of 26-year-old Birrell, who has never broken into the top 100 in her 10 years on the WTA Tour.
Champions Trophy, England Away, Asia Cup: Team India's 2025 Cricket Schedule In Full
Team India will be battling for as many as three international trophies in 2025. The new year will bring a plethora of cricket action, kickstarting with the all-important final Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024/25 against Australia. Should India win the game, they'll keep themselves alive for qualification to the World Test Championship (WTC) 2025 final, one of the trophies at stake. The 2025 Asia Cup - on home soil - will be a trophy to win late in the year. But undoubtedly the biggest one is the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, set to take place in February and March.
Alexander Zverev Injured As Holders Germany Crash At United Cup
Elena Rybakina's Kazakhstan dumped defending champions Germany out of the United Cup on Wednesday with world number two Alexander Zverev sidelined by an arm injury barely a week away from the Australian Open. The upset in Perth sent the Kazakhs into the semi-finals of the 18-nation tournament. In Sydney women's world number two Iga Swiatek led Poland into the last eight by winning a rematch of her 2023 French Open final against the Czech Republic's Karolina Muchova. Britain also progressed to the quarter-finals with Katie Boulter's dominant 6-2, 6-1 victory over Australia's Olivia Gadecki enough to guarantee they won their group.
"Everyone Afraid Of Virat Kohli": Team India Told To Make Big Change In 5th Test At SCG
With just one Test to go and the series on the line, Team India could spring a few surprises in team selection in the final match of the series against Australia. Skipper Rohit Sharma's batting position has already been altered once, but former Pakistan cricketer Basit Ali has asked the team management to demote Virat Kohli too. Kohli, who has batted at the No. 4 spot in all 4 matches so far, has been suggested to play at the No. 5 spot in the last match at Sydney Cricket Ground.
"We Could Pass A Law...": What Australia PM Anthony Albanese Told Jasprit Bumrah At New Year's Party
Ahead of the fifth Border-Gavaskar Trophy Test starting on Friday, the Indian and Australian teams met Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and his fiancee Jodie Haydon in a New Year's reception at Kirribilli House on Wednesday. According to a report in The Sydney Morning Herald, Albanese also had some words for India's fast-bowling spearhead Jasprit Bumrah, who has taken 30 wickets from four matches in the series so far. “We could pass a law here that says he has to bowl left-handed or off one step. Every time he has come onto bowl has been very exciting," he said in the 90-minute function.
Australia Star Criticises 'Snicko', Gives Big Verdict On Yashasvi Jaiswal DRS Controversy
Australia wicketkeeper-batter Alex Carey on Wednesday reflected on India batter Yashasvi Jaiswal's controversial dismissal on Day 05 at the Melbourne Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy and said that the third umpire took the right decision. Australia clinched an 184-run victory over India at the Melbourne Test and took a 2-1 lead in the series, also ending India's chances of qualifying for the World Test Championship (WTC) Final at Lord's early next year. The decision by the third umpire Sharfuddoula on Yashasvi Jaiswal's dismissal on the final day of the fourth Test of the BGT series has left the world of cricket divided.
Australia Executed Their Disciplined Plan Of Dismissing Virat Kohli: Michael Clarke
Former Australia captain Michael Clarke has lauded the Pat Cummins-led side for executing their "disciplined plans" of dismissing the talismanic Virat Kohli in the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy series. Despite making an unbeaten century in the second innings during India's 295-run win in Perth, Kohli hasn't done anything substantial, as seen from his scores of 7, 11, 3, 36 and 5 in the next five innings in Adelaide, Brisbane and Melbourne. What's been more worrying is, all six of Kohli's dismissals in the current series have been to chasing balls outside the off stump.
