Chris Wilder expects Djed Spence to leave Middlesbrough this summer but will be prepared to use him if an acceptable offer does not arrive. Tottenham are believed to leading the race to sign the right-back, but Wilder insists that Boro won't be bullied into selling the defender for below his market value.
It was on this day, 39 years ago, when Kapil Dev-led Team India won their first World Cup title. Heading into the tournament, not many gave India a chance of winning the competition, but Kapil Dev and his team surprised everyone by going all the way in the tournament. What made the victory sweeter was that India outclassed the favourites West Indies in the summit clash at the Lord's Cricket Ground. India defended a below-par score in the final as the bowling lineup displayed a spirited performance.
The ongoing third Test between England and New Zealand witnessed a bizarre dismissal on Thursday. Kiwi batter Henry Nicholls came down the track to hit a half volley from Jack Leach for a four down the ground but his shot inadvertently went straight towards Daryl Mitchell at the non-strikers end, hit his bat and eventually went into the hands of mid-off fielder Alex Lees. While the entire England team erupted in joy with the lucky wicket, the unfortunate dismissal also gave netizens a good time.
The pitch on the third day of the final played flat and true and MP’s batsmen needed patience and determination to make an impact. They had both in tons. Opener Yash Dubey chose temperament over temptation and in the process set the tone with a gritty century (133; 336b, 14x4) that spanned a remarkable 546 minutes of monk-like concentration. The other two batsmen who starred on the day – Shubham Sharma (116; 215b, 15x4, 1x6) and Rajat Patidar (batting 67; 106b, 13x4) – simply followed suit. The three batsmen have been the cornerstone of MP’s batting unit this season and delivered yet again. At stumps, MP were at 368/3, just six runs away from Mumbai’s first-inning total of 374. Mumbai bowlers haven’t been tested much this season and it showed as they toiled and sweated and had little to show for their effort. They did have their opportunities but fluffed them with uncharacteristic tardiness.
Ricardo Santos admits he would have wanted to sign an even longer contract at Bolton Wanderers after he agreed a new deal this summer and though he had options elsewhere he wanted to commit his future to the Whites.
John Campbell consolidated a dominant position for the West Indies in reaching 67 without loss at stumps after their bowlers dismissed Bangladesh for 234 on the first day of the second and final Test in St Lucia on Friday. A day that started well for the home captain when he won the toss to give his bowlers first use of a sporting pitch ended with Brathwaite unbeaten on 30 and Campbell 32 not out, the pair laying the platform going into day two when they will be seeking to take a step closer to a 2-0 series sweep of their opponents. Alzarri Joseph and Jayden Seales led the West Indies bowling effort with three wickets each while debutant Anderson Phillip, who took the first wicket of the match with just his second ball in Test cricket, and the versatile Kyle Mayers claimed two apiece. That reinforced not just their skipper's decision at the toss but also the selectors' choice in opting for an additional seamer in Phillip at the expense of first Test debutant and spinner Gudakesh Motie.
