While Ireland have landed themselves in the pool of death at the Rugby World Cup, Devin Toner believes that the schedule of games has fallen kindly for Andy Farrell's side as they look to build towards their peak.
Australian quick Mitchell Starc will be returning to the Indian Premier League (IPL) next year, for the first time since 2015, in order to prepare for the ICC T20 World Cup, which will take place in West Indies and June next year. If he is picked up by a team this will be his second franchise. He had played in two seasons in 2014 and 2015 for Royal Challengers Bangalore, picking up 34 wickets in 27 matches. Back in 2018, he was acquired by Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) before he withdrew due to injury and on other occasions, he prioritised international cricket over IPL.
As part of their preparation for the upcoming Asian Games, the Indian football team looks to gear up in the best possible fashion in the King's Cup 2023. The Indian team, without the services of skipper Sunil Chhetri, will be up against Iraq in the 4-team tournament on Thursday. Chhetri was instrumental in the Indian team's triumph at the Intercontinental Cup and the SAFF Championship but he has taken some personal time off after his wife gave birth to their son.

Two spinners will be enough in India's playing XI during upcoming World Cup, feels former Sri Lankan spin wizard Muttiah Muralitharan, who is firmly against the idea of forcibly fitting in a third specialist slow bowler just for the heck of it. India have picked three left-arm slow bowlers -- orthodox spinners Ravindra Jadeja and Axar Patel along with wrist spinner Kuldeep Yadav. "Only for the sake of variation you cannot play three spinners in a team. You can play only two. Jadeja will play as an all-rounder and one more can play," Muralitharan told PTI during an exclusive interview on the sidelines of a promotional event on his biopic '800'.
The irony wasn’t lost on Ebbsfleet’s Omari Sterling-James after he scored his first goal of the season last weekend.
His two-year contract will expire at the end of ODI World Cup but head coach Rahul Dravid's future will be followed keenly in case the Indian team lifts the coveted trophy. It is a foregone conclusion that Dravid will be one of the fall guys if India cannot at least make it to the title clash as a mere semi-final appearance wouldn't be considered good enough. BCCI may search for a coach again and it will be interesting to see if 'The Wall' will be keen on a renewal of contract -- partial or full -- in case Board supremo Jay Shah offers a fresh deal.
PARIS: Dynamic scrum-half Antoine Dupont will lead France into a home Rugby World Cup with hopes high that he can spark a first Northern Hemisphere victory in 20 years in the sport’s quadrennial showpiece.
