"England Can Still Qualify": Wasim Jaffer Pokes Michael Vaughan, Hilariously Mocks Defending Champions

Former India opener Wasim Jaffer took a hilarious jibe at former England skipper Michael Vaughan after the hosts defeated the defending champions in their ODI World Cup 2023 match on Sunday. Asked to bat first, the Rohit Sharma-led posted a total of 229/9 in 50 overs. Later, pacers Mohammed Shami and Jasprit Bumrah joined hands and helped India to bundle out England for 129, registering a win by 100 runs. With this win, Team India has got six victories in as many matches and taken the top spot on the points. England, on the other hand, are at the bottom of the table with only one win out of six matches.

Lionel Messi wins Ballon d’Or for eighth time

PARIS: Lionel Messi won the Ballon d’Or for the eighth time in his career at a star-studded ceremony in Paris on Monday. Messi, 36, succeeds Karim Benzema as winner of the prize, awarded for his performances last season, when he inspired Argentina to glory at the World Cup in Qatar. It was his displays in the Gulf, when Messi dragged his country to a victory that crowned his remarkable career, that allowed Messi to see off stiff competition from Kylian Mbappe and Erling Haaland in particular. Haaland came second in the final voting, with Mbappe third and Kevin De Bruyne in fourth place. Former Barcelona superstar Messi scored seven times at the World Cup and was named the tournament’s best player after Argentina beat France on penalties in the final in Doha. Yet Messi, who won his first Ballon d’Or in 2009, also had an underwhelming final season at Paris Saint-Germain, before leaving to play for Inter Miami in Major League Soccer. His old PSG teammate Mbappe made his case with his remarkable performances at the World Cup, which he finished as the top scorer on eight goals after netting a hat-trick in the final for France. Norway striker Haaland scored an incredible 52 goals in 53 games for Manchester City as Pep Guardiola’s side won the treble of English Premier League, FA Cup and Champions League. He and De Bruyne were among members of that City team who were nominated.

Chase Against Pakistan Gave Us Belief: Afghanistan Captain Hashmatullah Shahidi

After scaling down a middling target against Sri Lanka with ease in a World Cup game on Monday, Afghanistan captain Hashmatullah Shahidi attributed his team's confidence to its triumphant run chase against Pakistan. Afghanistan hunted down 242 against Lanka in 45.2 overs losing just three wickets to score their first World Cup win over the Islanders. The match Shahidi was referring to was Afghanistan's eight-wicket win over Babar Azam's side in Chennai on October 23, when they chased 282 losing just two wickets. “Pakistan chase gave us a lot of confidence and belief that we can chase any kind of target. We started really well in bowling (against SL) and the chase was very professional and I am very happy about it,” said Shahidi in the post-match presentation.
