Carlos Alcaraz has withdrawn from the Monte Carlo Masters due to a forearm injury, the Spanish number three seed said on Tuesday, with his place in the second round going to Lorenzo Sonego.
MS Dhoni enjoys the kind of mass following that no other cricketer currently enjoy. He has long retired from international cricket and has also stepped down from Chennai Super Kings captaincy. Still, the mere vision of MS Dhoni coming out to bat can see the decibel in a stadium hit the roof. The same was the case when CSK faced Kolkata Knight Riders in an IPL 2024 match in Chennai on Monday. As MS Dhoni came out to bat with his team needing only three runs to win, the Chepauk crowd made so much noise that KKR's Andre Russell had to cover his ears.
Sunrisers Hyderabad on Tuesday roped in young Sri Lanka leg- spinner Vijayakanth Viyaskanth as a replacement for the injured Wanindu Hasaranga in the ongoing edition of the Indian Premier League. The 22-year-old Vijayakanth, who has played one T20I for Sri Lanka, is a like-for-like replacement for leg-spinner Hasaranga. He has joined Sunrisers for a base price of Rs 50 lakh.
MS Dhoni, a man who has been batting at the No. 7 or No. 8 positions for Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in the Indian Premier League (IPL) this year, came out to bat at the No. 5 spot against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) on Monday. With the match all but won, Dhoni promoted himself up in the batting order, but not before Ravindra Jadeja had an opportunity to tease the fans at Chepauk. In a video that has gone viral, Jadeja could be seen walking before Dhoni to bat, before promptly returning.
Former Indian men's boxing coach Blas Iglesias Fernandez has backed world champion Nikhat Zareen (50kg) to bag a medal at this year's Paris Olympics but feels that Tokyo Games bronze-medallist Lovlina Borgohain's (75kg) chances will boil down to her level of aggression in the ring. The 68-year-old Cuban, who served for over two decades as the men's coach and also became the first and only overseas Dronacharya awardee, has been appointed by the Sports Authority of India as High Performance Coach for a two-year period.
Rutuja Bhosale did not lose a single game while Ankita Raina too had an easy outing as the Indian team expectedly blanked Pacific Oceania 3-0 on the opening day of the Billie Jean King Cup in China on Tuesday. Bhosale double bageled Fiji's Tarani Kamoe to put India ahead. The country's number one singles player Raina then sealed the contest with a 6-1 6-3 win over Saoirse Breen, who is also from Fiji. In the inconsequential doubles, the Indian combination of Shrivalli Rashmika Bhamidipaty and Prarthana Thombare outplayed Mehetia Boosie and Ruby Coffin 6-1 6-1.
The 36-year-old Novak Djokovic and 44-year-old Rohan Bopanna both champions are defying the odds and proving that age is just a number with their singles and doubles No. 1 crowns in ATP Rankings history. On Sunday, Djokovic surpassed Roger Federer to become the oldest World No. 1 in ATP Rankings history while Bopanna leads the ATP Doubles Rankings. "It's not really balanced. It's not 50-50. He brings more years to the 80. But I think we're still going strong," Djokovic said in a video shared by ATP Tour on X.
