MANCHESTER, England : Real Madrid have forgotten last season's heavy defeat at Manchester City in the Champions League as they prepare to return to The Etihad for their quarter-final, second leg on Wednesday, coach Carlo Ancelotti said.
After his side's sixth defeat in seven matches in the ongoing Indian Premier League, Royal Challengers Bengaluru head coach Andy Flower confessed that each of their remaining seven matches will have to be treated like a semifinal. In the latest setback to their playoff aspirations, RCB went down by 25 runs against Sunrisers Hyderabad on Monday.
A crestfallen Royal Challengers Bengaluru skipper Faf du Plessis conceded that a string of defeats had taken a toll on the team and the confidence had hit an all-time low after losing by 25 runs to Sunrisers Hyderabad in a match where a plethora of batting records were eclipsed. SRH posted an all-time IPL record total of 287 for 3 and then restricted RCB to 262 for 7 as 38 maximums were hit across two innings. The match also entered the record books for the highest cumulative match total of 549 scored by both teams.
IPL 2024 Points Table:Royal Challengers Bengaluru slumped to their sixth loss in seven matches and as a result, the road to IPL 2024 playoffs got much tougher for the Faf Du Plessis-led side. RCB were outplayed completely by Sunrisers Hyderabad, who registered the highest team total in the history of the competition on Monday. Travis Head slammed a brilliant century to take SRH to a record 287/3 in 20 overs before Pat Cummins took three wickets to guide his team to victory. Following the loss, RCB remained last in the points table with just 2 points and a horrible NRR (Net Run Rate) of -1.185. That means RCB have no other choice but win all of their remaining matches in IPL 2024 and hope for other results to go their way if they want to qualify for the playoffs.
LONDON: Arsenal's Premier League title push was hit by late goals from Aston Villa's Leon Bailey and Ollie Watkins as they suffered a surprise 2-0 home defeat on Sunday (Apr 14) to hand the initiative to leaders and defending champions Manchester City.
Canada continues to make necessary adjustments while building confidence entering Monday's winner-take-all men's basketball match at a last-chance Paralympic qualifier.
The IPL 'El Clasico' on Sunday had one clear winner - Chennai Super Kings, with Mumbai Indians finishing second best. The much awaited clash had it all. There were terrific performances from the youngsters, MS Dhoni finished CSK's innings with 20 runs off just 4 balls, Rohit Sharma scored a ton, but ultimately it was CSK which came out victorious. Another thing that got repeated was the crowd booing Mumbai Indians captain Hardik Pandya.
Lucknow Super Giants skipper KL Rahul on Sunday said panic has not set within his team after two successive defeats, but stressed on the need to have some tough conversations within the group. LSG went down by eight wickets against Kolkata Knight Riders here, as the side is now placed fifth on the points table with six points from as many matches. "Not panicking, but you can't put your feet up and hope results will go your way. We have to figure out where you are going wrong. We will have a few difficult conversations," said Rahul during the post-match presentation.
