After his stupendous performance at the T20 World Cup, Bumrah will make a return into Team India for the first time.

Genoa snatched a 1-1 home draw with Roma in the final seconds on Sunday to continue their positive start to the Serie A season. Koni De Winter headed home Genoa's leveller in the sixth minute of added time at a packed Stadio Luigi Ferraris to deny Roma a first win of the campaign. Artem Dovbyk looked to have shot Roma to victory when he prodded home in the 37th minute after Niccolo Pisilli's effort was spilled by Pierlugi Gollini. But De Winter's first Serie A goal gave Genoa their second late home draw of the new season after also stunning champions Inter Milan in their opening fixture.
Gabriel Magalhaes headed Arsenal to a 1-0 win at Tottenham on Sunday as the Gunners overcame the absence of key midfielders Declan Rice and Martin Odegaard to extend their north London derby dominance. Mikel Arteta's side were without skipper Odegaard due to an ankle injury suffered on Norway duty, while Rice served a suspension for his red card against Brighton. Losing two such influential players appeared to make Arsenal vulnerable on their trip up the Seven Sisters Road to face their bitter rivals. But the Premier League title contenders dug deep with a combative display, benefitting from Tottenham's latest display of wasteful finishing before Gabriel bagged the winner in the second half.
Mumbai all-rounder Shams Mulani has had a first-class match of his life. After scoring a match-saving 89 in the first innings for India A against India D in the Duleep Trophy 2024 second round, Mulani now starred with the ball and with his quick thinking in the field. Not only did he pick up four wickets in the game, the 27-year-old was able to inflict a rare type of run out. Yash Dubey, opening the batting for India D, was the victim of a stroke of misfortune and a brilliant piece of game alertness by Mulani.
Diamond League Final 2024: Double Olympic gold medallist javelin thrower Neeraj Chopra on Sunday revealed that he took part in the Diamond League season finale despite a hand injury sustained during a training session. On Saturday, Chopra came agonisingly close to winning the Diamond League crown before missing it by a single centimeter to finish as runner-up for the second consecutive year with a throw of 87.86m in Brussels
Former wicketkeeper batter Kamran Akmal urged Pakistan Cricket Board's (PCB) top brass not to make any captaincy changes and suggested that the players should get the basic right to avoid blunders. Last week, reports started to surface that Babar Azam could lose the white-ball captaincy. Sources told Geo News that wicketkeeper batter Mohammad Rizwan has become the top contender to replace Babar Azam for the white ball captaincy. With Pakistan set to host the ICC Champions Trophy next year, Akmal questioned the need to change the captain. He stated that the change should have been imposed when Pakistan had an underwhelming campaign in last year's ODI World Cup and this year's T20 World Cup.
