David Warner Slams 164 As Australia Take Control Against Pakistan
Veteran opener David Warner hammered a gritty 164 to silence the critics and steer Australia to 346-5 against an inconsistent Pakistan attack in the first Test at Perth on Thursday.

At stumps, Mitchell Marsh was unbeaten on 15 and Alex Carey not out 14. Pakistan have never won a Test series in Australia and have failed to win a Test in the country since 1995, with Shan Masood's side again facing a daunting task.

Eddie Howe Wants 'Magical European Night' As Newcastle Bid To Stay In Champions League
Eddie Howe is hoping for a "magical European night" as Newcastle try to reach the last 16 of the Champions League on Wednesday. Newcastle must win at home to AC Milan and overcome a deepening injury crisis to have any chance of progress. Even victory over the seven-time European champions may not be enough for the Magpies to remain in the Champions League as they would still drop into the Europa League should Paris Saint-Germain win at Borussia Dortmund. Defeat, meanwhile, would ensure Newcastle finished bottom of Group F, which would represent a hugely disappointing return from a campaign that featured an impressive 4-1 defeat of Paris Saint-Germain.
