Cheteshwar Pujara continued his good form in the English County championship with a second successive hundred for Sussex against Worcestershire in an away match but couldn't stop his team from being enforced follow-on.

No team has gotten more value out of the NFL draft over the past decade than the Seattle Seahawks — thanks to an elite 2012 class — and no team has drafted less value than the New York Jets, according to our study of the last 10 drafts.
Hardik Pandya has his "thinking cap on" this season, according to the legendary Sunil Gavaskar, who feels the Gujarat Titans skipper is batting with discipline and making good use of field restrictions, which has raised his game. The star Baroda all-rounder has led the Gujarat Titans from the front, rescuing the team on several occasions with his responsible knocks. The all-rounder has contributed with the ball as well and is an important cog in the wheel for the Titans.
Rajasthan Royals' (RR) opener Jos Buttler, who scored a scintillating 116 runs off just 65 balls against Delhi Capitals (DC) in the Indian Premier League (IPL) match on Friday, said it was a 'special' knock and he is enjoying the best form of his life. Buttler was named the 'Player of the Match' for his brilliant knock that included 9 fours and 9 sixes. The English batsman's third ton of this IPL season and Prasidh Krishna's 3 for 22 helped Rajasthan Royals (222 for 2) beat Delhi Capitals (207 for 8) by 15 runs in a high-scoring match at the Wankhede Stadium here on Friday.
Delhi Capitals (DC) doesn't stand for what happened in the last over against Rajasthan Royals (RR), asserted assistant coach Shane Watson, adding that the players have to accept umpire's decision and it is completely "unacceptable" for someone to enter the field of play. Drama ensued in the RR's 15-run win over DC on Friday when the third delivery of the final over, a hip-high full-toss from Obed McCoy, was whacked by Rovman Powell for a six but the Delhi camp demanded it be called a no-ball for height. It started with Kuldeep Yadav, who was at the non-striker's end, gesturing to the umpires to check for a possible no-ball on height. Powell joined in having a chat with the umpires too. But the umpires stood their ground, saying the delivery was legal.
Jos Buttler scored another T20 century to power Rajasthan Royals to the top of the Indian Premier League table but Friday's 15-run win over Delhi Capitals was overshadowed by farcical protests over an umpiring decision in the final over. England batter Buttler smashed 116 off 65 deliveries for his third hundred in this season's IPL as Rajasthan posted 222-2 after being put in to bat first at Mumbai's Wankhede Stadium. Delhi needed 36 off the final over and their hopes of an unlikely victory was fanned when Rovman Powell clobbered fellow West Indies cricketer Obed McCoy for three consecutive sixes off the first three deliveries.
Delhi Capitals vs Rajasthan Royals clash on Friday as the dramatic events overshadowed an epic 15-run Royals victory. And at the centre of the ugly scenes were the on-field umpires -- Nitin Menon and Nikhil Patwardhan, who faced the wrath of the Delhi Capitals outfit and the fans inside the stadium for what looked like a no ball gaffe. The final-over no ball controversy that shook the cricketing world last night is now officially the first major controversy of the 15th edition of the Indian Premier League.
Royal Challengers Bangalore and Sunrisers Hyderabad have found their men this season. At the halfway mark of the IPL’s league phase, both teams have at least two men each who have delivered. For RCB, the man of the moment is Dinesh Karthik. The Mike Hesson-helmed think-tank’s wisdom was questioned when the 36-year-old was picked for Rs 5.50 crore considering his age and the fact that he doesn’t feature much in domestic cricket.
