John McEnroe says tennis fans would want to see Roger Federer and Serena Williams «play forever», but believes neither player should do a U-turn after announcing their retirements.

"Going Into A World Cup...": Mahela Jayawardena Opens Up On Babar Azam's Recent Struggles
"So near, yet so far." This proverb was totally justified in the case of Team Pakistan, when they failed to defeat Sri Lanka in the summit clash of Asia Cup 2022. Giving a fairly good performance in the Super 4 stage, Pakistan lost the final match by 23 runs against Sri Lanka. In the tournament, Pakistan found heroes in the form of Mohammad Nawaz, Haris Rauf, and Shadab Khan, who gave great performances with the ball. But on the other hand, Pakistan's major disappointment was skipper Babar Azam himself, who could manage only 68 runs in six matches. Babar has been receiving a lot of flak from both fans and cricket experts for his dismal show.
