South Africa Cricket Legend Mike Procter Dies At 77

South Africa cricket legend and former national coach Mike Procter died on Saturday at the age of 77, his wife told AFP. "He suffered a complication during surgery, became unconscious and never woke up," Maryna Procter said. Procter was an outstanding all-rounder who became South Africa's first coach in the post-apartheid era and had a controversial stint as an International Cricket Council (ICC) match referee. On Monday his family revealed that he had suffered a "cardiac incident" while recovering in a hospital intensive care unit following routine surgery.

Rodri Salvages Point But Manchester City Stumble In Premier League Title Race

Rodri's late equaliser extended Manchester City's year-long unbeaten record at home but a 1-1 draw against Chelsea on Saturday handed Liverpool and Arsenal a huge boost in the Premier League title race. Raheem Sterling gave Chelsea a first-half lead on his return to the Etihad and City were headed to a first defeat on home soil for 34 games until Rodri's deflected effort seven minutes from time. City move four points behind leaders Liverpool and two adrift of Arsenal, but have a game in hand on both their title rivals.

Mohamed Salah Scores In Liverpool Return As Manchester City Held By Chelsea

Mohamed Salah returned with a goal as Premier League leaders Liverpool routed Brentford 4-1 despite a rash of injuries, while Manchester City's title defence was damaged by a 1-1 draw against Chelsea on Saturday. Arsenal demolished Burnley 5-0 to keep the pressure on Liverpool, who are two points above the second-placed Gunners and four-ahead of third placed City. Salah came off the bench to replace the injured Diogo Jota in his first Liverpool appearance since their win over Newcastle on New Year's Day.

Mohammed Siraj's Honest Analysis Of Joe Root's "Stupidest In English Test History" Shot

Pacer Mohammed Siraj is surprised that a well-set Joe Root preferred to play a reverse ramp shot off Jasprit Bumrah and ended up losing his wicket to hand India advantage in the third Test in Rajkot Saturday. Root was batting at 18, having spent almost an hour at the crease. Trying to improvise, Root attempted a reverse ramp over the slip only to find Yashaswi Jaiswal at second slip. His partnership with centurion Ben Duckett (153) was steady but after his dismissal, England could not add even 100 runs to the total. The visitors conceded a huge 126-run lead.

"For Me, Jaiswal Is Everything": Fangirl Posts On Centurion, Star's IPL Team Reacts

Yashasvi Jaiswal is now clearly the best performer for the Indian cricket team in the Test series against England. After a double ton, Yashasvi Jaiswal has now scored a ton against England. The left-handed opener is proving time and again why India can rely on him in the long term. The century on Saturday was a dominating one. Jaiswal's (104 retired hurt off 133 balls) second ton of the series was beautifully complemented by Shubman Gill (65 batting, 120 balls), who curbed his natural aggression as India ended the day at 196 for 2 in 51 available overs.
