PARIS: France went through the opening phase of the Rugby World Cup like party-goers at a summer disco, but after a weekend of electrifying rugby, the lights were switched back on abruptly and the country woke up on a greyish, crisp autumn morning.
South Africa captain Temba Bavuma insists his team cannot afford to be "arrogant or loud" when they face the Netherlands in the Cricket World Cup on Tuesday, wary of the shock defeat they suffered against the Dutch at the World T20 last year.
England achieved the unwanted record of losing to all 11 Test-playing nations at the Cricket World Cup after they were stunned by Afghanistan on Sunday. England are the first team ever to achieve this feat as they were completely outplayed by Afghanistan in the Cricket World Cup 2023 encounter in New Delhi. In the first two editions of the tournament, England lost to Australia in 1975 and then to West Indies in the 1979 final. In 1983 and 1987, they suffered losses at the hands of India and Pakistan respectively. In 1983, they were also defeated by New Zealand in a shock result.

LUCKNOW, India : Five-time champions Australia injected some life into their moribund World Cup campaign with a five-wicket victory against Sri Lanka on Monday.
The US and West Indies jointly hosting the next T20 World Cup along with the success of the first edition of Major League Cricket (MLC) played a pivotal role in cricket's inclusion in the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics, said Niccolo Campriani, LA28 Sports Director on Monday. Cricket (men's and women's T20Is) returned to the Olympic Games after a long gap of 123 years since its maiden appearance in 1900, with lacrosse (sixes), baseball/softball, flag football and squash being approved as the additional sports for the Los Angeles Olympics in 2028. The voting in favour of these games took place on Monday during the second day's proceedings of the International Olympic Committee's (IOC) 141st Session.
