LONDON : South African speedster Anrich Nortje said he relished bowling at speeds rarely seen in English conditions, after he was timed at 148 kph in his team’s crushing innings defeat of England in their first test at Lord’s on Friday.
Following Ciara Mageean's silver medal in the 1500m last night, team Ireland will be hoping to land more medals at the European Championships tonight.
Nortje ripped through the heart of the home batting, taking three wickets in 10 balls at one point, as England slumped to 149 all out in their second innings to lose the Test inside three days. Nortje’s average speed in the over where he dismissed the dangerous Jonny Bairstow was 148 kph, making it the quickest over England have had to face at home in the last decade of test cricket, according to the analytics website CricViz. "It's exciting, something I've wanted to do since I was a kid," Nortje told a news conference.
The Indian duo defeated the Indonesian pair 21-18, 21-13 in the summit clash of SL3-SL4 category. In the men's singles, Bhagat and Kadam had to settle for a silver medal each after losing their respective finals. While Pramod went down fighting to England's Daniel Bethell 13-21, 19-21, Kadam lost 2-21, 17-21 to France's Lucas Mazur.
Austin Riley hit a three-run homer Friday night for the surging Atlanta Braves, who beat the visiting Houston Astros 6-2 in the first game between the clubs since last October's World Series.
Carlos Alcaraz beat Maran Cilic in straight sets in the round of 16 at the Cincinnati Masters. During his 7-6(7/4), 6-1 win over Cilic, the young Spaniard hit a brilliant drop shot. In fact, the shot was so good, it looked like he himself was amazed that he pulled it off. Running to the net to return a shot that was dropping on him, Alcaraz just about managed to slice across to get the ball to go back over the net and land just inside the line.
Cameron Norrie admitted he lost focus before battling his way back from the brink of defeat to book a place in the semi-finals of the Western and Southern Open.
