ABU DHABI: Unbeaten flyweight Muhammad Mokaev returns to Abu Dhabi on Saturday for UFC 294: Makhachev vs Volkanovski 2, looking to build on the win he enjoyed on his last trip to the UAE capital.
In Australia's desperate hunt for a victory, all-rounder Mitchell Marsh emerged as a match-winner, scoring 52 runs off 51 balls as his team chased down the target of 210 runs with relative ease. Marsh's half-century was crucial to Australia's successful chase, and after the game, the all-rounder caught up with the broadcaster where he was asked a cheeky question by Indian cricket legend Sunil Gavaskar. On being asked about the coaching he received from his father Geoff, Marsh had floored everyone with his response to Gavaskar.
Australian cricket team star David Warner won hearts as he helped the groundstaff in covering the pitch when rain interrupted play at the Ekana Stadium in Lucknow on Monday. Sri Lanka were 178 for four against Australia when rain stopped play and while most of the cricketers were quickly leaving the field, Warner stayed back and he was seen dragging the covers along with the stadium staff. The video of him helping them was posted by the International Cricket Council (ICC) on their social media profiles and users were all praise for the veteran cricketer's gesture.
Pre-match talk of Pat Cummins being sensationally dropped from Australia's World Cup lineup to face Sri Lanka was proved unfounded and also somewhat ludicrous after the pace-bowling skipper produced a crucial spell to help beat the South Asians.
LOS ANGELES: The Texas Rangers held off a ferocious late rally from the defending champion Houston Astros to claim a 5-4 victory and snatch a commanding 2-0 series lead in the Major League Baseball playoffs on Monday.
Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) on Tuesday lifted a ban imposed on Danushka Gunathilaka following a sexual assault charge in Australia, paving the way for the left-handed batter's return to the national team. "...the Independent Inquiry Committee appointed by SLC, which was tasked with investigating into the impact of the criminal allegations against Mr. Danushka Gunathilaka in Australia, has recommended a full lifting of the ban imposed on him in November 2022 following Mr. Gunathilaka's acquittal from all charges filed in the District Court of New South Wales and his return to Sri Lanka on 3rd October 2023," a release said. "He would now be able to return to national duty," it added.
Panned for his poor show in the opening two Cricket World Cup matches, Australia's sole frontline spinner at the World Cup Adam Zampa said that expensive figures don't bother him as he bowls to get wickets. Australia found themselves in a precarious situation after suffering back-to-back losses against India and South Africa before notching up a five-wicket win over Sri Lanka on Monday. Zampa, who has enjoyed a lot of success between the 2019 World Cup and the start of the ongoing edition, flattered to deceive in the opening two games, going for plenty of runs. "I'm very good at self-reflection. I look back on the first two games and I'll probably look at the last game as one where I could have made a difference there and made it easy for those other guys," Zampa said after Australia's win.
ABU DHABI: The inaugural Abu Dhabi Extreme Championship is set to attract the attention of MMA and grappling fans in the Middle East with a No-Gi Welterweight bout between Abdul Kareem Al-Selwady of Palestine and Islam Reda of Egypt.
