India vs Australia, 2nd Test: Mohammed Shami Stars As India Dominate On Opening Day Against Australia
Mohammed Shami's clever variations with the semi-new and old ball were beautifully complemented by the spin duo of Ravindra Jadeja and Ravichandran Ashwin as India restricted Australia to 263 on the opening day of the second Test here on Friday. Opener Usman Khawaja (81, 125 balls) made amends for a horrendous first-Test outing at Nagpur with an attractive knock while Peter Handscomb (72 not out, 142 balls) played with determination at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Friday, but their efforts weren't enough as the visitors were all out in 78.4 overs.
Arpit Vasavada Puts Saurashtra On Top Against Bengal In Ranji Trophy Final
Three years after he crushed Bengal's Ranji Trophy hopes in the final, Arpit Vasavada once again came to haunt them at the same stage again, standing tall with an unbeaten 81 to take Saurashtra closer to their second title, on Friday. The Saurashtra vice-captain, whose 106 handed them a match-winning first innings lead in the 2020 final in Rajkot, once again got under the skin of Bengal, sharing two key partnerships with Sheldon Jackson (59) and Chirag Jani (57 not out). The duo of Vasavada and Jani, who are unbroken in a 113-run partnership, stepped up the run-rate in the post-tea session, extending their first innings lead to 143.
IND vs AUS 2nd Test: Mohammed Shami, R Ashwin, Ravindra Jadeja dominate Australia on Day 1
The first day of the second Test here at the Ferozeshah Kotla wasn’t much different except that Khawaja’s 81 and Handscomb’s unbeaten 72 perhaps made the Indian attack toil harder than they have at home since the defeat against England in Chennai two years ago. Yet, the Australians, perennially spooked by the look of Indian pitches, could muster 263 in 78.4 overs on a slow track after winning the toss.

'We are on the cusp of a local movement': Ex-Labour councillor forms new party to fight Stockport's next election
A former Labour councillor who acrimoniously quit after being barred from standing as a candidate has formed a new party. Coun Matt Wynne will lead the Edgeley Community Association (ECA) - now registered with the Electoral Commission - at Stockport council’s ‘all out’ local elections in May.As its name suggests, the fledgling party will concentrate on the new Edgeley ward, which is set to separate from Cheadle Heath under a boundary shake-up. Coun Wynne launched a blistering attack on his local party last year, claiming he had fallen victim to a ‘weaponised’ selection process following a ‘gradual takeover’ of what he called the ‘far left’.
