Lucknow Super Giants pacer Akash Singh paid tribute to his teammate Digvesh Rathi during an Indian Premier League 2025 match vs Gujarat Titans at Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad, on Thursday. Notably, spinner Digvesh missed the game as he was serving a one-match suspension for his tussle with SunRisers Hyderabad batter Abhishek Sharma in LSG's previous game.

The remainder of Pakistan Super League is set to be conducted without Hawkeye and DRS technologies as most of the technicians who handle that aspect are from India and are not expected to return back following the recent conflict between the two nations. The PSL was postponed indefinitely after India launched missile attacks on terror infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan Occupied Jammu and Kashmir a fortnight after the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack in which 26 people were killed. The PCB tried to organise the remainder of the PSL in UAE but the Emirates Cricket Board (ECB) declined the proposal.
India's upcoming Test series against England is set to witness a significant transition, with left-arm pacer Arshdeep Singh likely to earn his maiden Test call-up.

As India embarks on this challenging tour, Arshdeep's inclusion could bolster the pace attack, especially in English conditions that favor seam bowling. If selected, Arshdeep could add a much-needed left-arm angle to India's pace attack, complementing the likes of Bumrah and Siraj.
GENEVA: Novak Djokovic overcame soggy conditions on his 38th birthday to beat Matteo Arnaldi on Thursday and reach the Geneva Open semifinals in a tune-up event for Roland Garros.

Djokovic is hunting the 100th title of his career on the eve of the French Open having not won a tournament since capturing Olympic gold in Paris last August. “It’s great to be in the semifinals again. Last year I played the semifinals.
