The Indian men's badminton team began its Thomas Cup campaign in an emphatic manner, thrashing Germany 5-0 on Sunday.

Ludovic Blas drilled home a penalty at the start of the second half to bring Nantes the club's first major trophy since winning the Ligue 1 title in 2001.
Lucknow Super Giants' (LSG) pacer Avesh Khan, who was adjudged 'Player of the Match' for his brilliant performance against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) on Saturday, said that the idea was to go as fast as he could on a hard length against a red-hot Andre Russell. A superb show by the LSG pace attack led by Avesh Khan (3/19) and Jason Holder (3/31) helped the side clinch a thumping 75-run win over KKR here at the MCA Stadium. It was an extremely forgettable day at work for KKR as only Aaron Finch (14), Andre Russell (45) and Sunil Narine (22) among their batting line-up could touch double figures, and the side surrendered miserably against the LSG attack.
SYDNEY : The ACT Brumbies beat New Zealand opposition for the third straight week to keep in touch with the competition-leading Auckland Blues as the race for playoff positions heated up in round 12 of Super Rugby over the weekend.
Rajasthan United restored Gokulam Kerala's six-point advantage, taking them closer to the I-League title here on Saturday. Both defences were on top of their game as one breach in Rajasthan's backline allowed Gokulam to snatch all three points at the Naihati Stadium. The first chance of the half fell to Jourdaine Fletcher as the Jamaican stood over a free-kick after a Mauro Dos Santos foul on Ahmed Razeek. Fletcher struck the wall with his effort as Rajasthan heaved a sigh of relief. Hitting the 10-minute mark, Gokulam keeper Rakshit Dagar came racing out to clear the ball away before it could reach Alocious. The keeper won the race but his desperate header went straight to Biswa Darjee, who scuffed his chance as the wayward shot was nowhere near goal. Ten minutes later, a series of good crosses into the Gokulam box were defended well by the league leaders. On the counter, Emil Benny played a brilliant low ball into the path of Jithin MS.
Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez has been defeated in a unanimous points decision which allowed Dmitry Bivol to retain his WBA light-heavyweight title and maintain his unbeaten record.
Yes, I am really pleased with the win today and the number of points that we have. Of course, we want to perform well to try to win football matches. There are three games left and we will play those three games as best we can because we want to build for next season and it is important we finish well.
