England have made three changes to their team for the third Ashes Test against Australia. Ollie Pope has been ruled out for the rest of the summer, as he needs surgery after suffering a dislocated shoulder. He is one of the three changes, with seam bowlers Josh Tongue and James Anderson also making way.
Sydney-based Nigerian professional boxer, Nestor Bolum, is targeting a knockout against homeboy, Liam Pope, in today’s vacant World Boxing Federation (WBF) Australasian title fight in Sydney. It is a 10-round contest. Speaking with The Guardian, yesterday, after the weighing-in ceremony, Bolum, who relocated to Sydney in 2015, said that he is 100 per cent fit for the fight, adding that he will teach his Australian opponent a bitter lesson inside the ring. “Liam Pope is taller, but he is too open for me to kill. I am going to teach him a bitter lesson tomorrow (today) by God’s Grace. I am 100 per cent fit, and my target is to knock him down,” Bolum stated. The Guardian learnt that today’s fight will cost the fans as much as $3,000. Each fan will pay $70 for the regular ticket, $2,500 VIP and $3,000 for VVIP ticket.
Ollie Pope has broken the record for the quickest Test double hundred to be made in England on a day dominated by the hosts at Lord’s. He reached 200 in just 207 balls on a completely one-sided day of cricket against Ireland. Ad Pope reached the milestone with a huge six, although he was bowled out with the next delivery.
NEWCASTLE: Newcastle United head coach Eddie Howe has fired a Champions League spending warning as he predicts yet another “big” summer on Tyneside. The club’s 0-0 draw with Leicester City on Monday ensured the Magpies return to Europe’s top table for the first time in 20 years. While the competition opens a lot of doors financially for Newcastle, who are likely to see revenues soar due to their involvement — they are guaranteed at least six games in the group stage — Howe does not believe transfer spends will mirror the unrealistic expectations of many outsides of the club.
Michael Owen says David de Gea has not been among the top five goalkeepers in the Premier League this season.
