Shubhankar Sharma To Lead India's Challenge At Indian Open

Two-time winner on the DP World Tour, Shubhankar Sharma and last year's runner-up Veer Ahlawat will lead a strong Indian field in the 2005 edition of the Indian Open golf tournament to be held at the DLF Golf and Country Club, Gurugram from March 27 to 30. The other Indians confirmed so far in the 138-player field are Shiv Kapur and Manu Gandas, among others. Another highlight is Indian teen prodigy Kartik Singh, who has been in form and finished in the top-10 in his last three international amateur events (twice in South Africa and once in Australia).

India Face Huge Challenge, Aim To Break 37-Year-Old Curse In Champions Trophy 2025 Final

India are attempting to break a 37-year-old curse as they take on New Zealand in the Champions Trophy 2025 final in Dubai on Sunday, March 9. Team India enter the game as favourites, having won seven ODIs in a row en route to the final. However, India do not enjoy a great record against New Zealand when it comes to tournament finals. In fact, the men in blue have not beaten the Kiwis in an international cricket final since 1988. India and New Zealand have faced off twice in the final of a major senior ICC event, and the Black Caps have won on both occasions. Overall, New Zealand lead India 3-1 when it comes to finals in international cricket.

Pakistan Spinner, Slammed For Send-Off Against India, Reveals 'Teasing' Virat Kohli Mid-Game

Pakistan cricket team spinner Abrar Ahmed found himself in the headlines after he gave a fiery send-off to Shubman Gill during the Champions Trophy 2025 match against India. Following Pakistan's loss in the encounter, he came under a lot of fire with Wasim Akram slamming him for his gesture. Abrar has now revealed that he teased Virat Kohli during the match and asked him to hit the spinner for a six. Virat was the top performer for India as he slammed a brilliant boundary while Abrar produced a solid performance. In a recent interview, he explained his admiration for the star batter and said that he was excited with the prospect of bowling to Kohli and took the opportunity to tease him.

"There's No Doubt That...": New Zealand Coach's Blunt Take On 'Unfair Advantage' Row

New Zealand coach Gary Stead conceded that Varun Chakravarthy will be a “big threat” in the Champions Trophy final, and the Kiwis will put on their “thinking caps” to work on the ways to negate India's mystery spinner. India will face New Zealand in the final of the ICC showpiece here on Sunday. “We certainly expect him to play after getting 5/42 against us in the last game. He's a class bowler, and showed his skills against us last time and he's a big threat in the game,” Stead told reporters on Friday. “So we'll be putting our thinking caps on around how we nullify that and how we can still score runs against him,” he added.

Who Wins Champions Trophy 2025 Trophy If India vs New Zealand Final Is Washed Out? Scenarios Explained

The Champions Trophy 2025 final is upon us, as India take on New Zealand. India will be eyeing a record third title, while New Zealand will be going for their second cup, having last won in the year 2000.

Doncic, James lead Lakers fightback as Knicks downed in thriller

LOS ANGELES, United States: Luka Doncic and LeBron James combined for 63 points as the Los Angeles Lakers produced a thrilling late fightback to seal a 113-109 overtime victory over the New York Knicks on Thursday. The red-hot Lakers extended their unbeaten streak to eight games in a pulsating battle at the Crypto.com Arena that saw Doncic finish with 32 points while James poured in 31. Doncic and James had both been instrumental in dragging the Lakers back into the contest after the Knicks led by 10 points midway through the fourth quarter. The Knicks meanwhile were left ruing a potential victory that slipped through their fingers despite a majestic performance from Jalen Brunson, who scored a game-high 39 points. The agony of the Knicks’ defeat was compounded by an injury to Brunson in overtime, with the mercurial point guard limping off the court after rolling his right ankle in a collision with the Lakers’ Austin Reaves. “Our physicality in the fourth quarter was next level,” an exhausted Doncic said afterwards. “Once we got started, we played basketball. “They’re a great team with great players and it’s a tough win.
