Liverpool's owners to "risk a bit more" as the Reds boss searches for a new midfielder before the transfer window closes on Thursday. Klopp was backed by Liverpool's Fenway Sports Group owners with a potential club record fee to sign Darwin Nunez from Benfica, as well as deals for Fabio Carvalho and Calvin Ramsay since the end of last season.

Ravindra Jadeja, who made a crucial 29-ball 35 in India's tense win over arch-rivals Pakistan, on Tuesday said he was "mentally ready" for the challenge. Against Pakistan, Jadeja came out to bat after opener KL Rahul and captain Rohit Sharma got out for nought and 12 respectively. He shared 52 runs with Hardik Pandya (33 not out) for the fifth wicket before the latter took India past the target of 149. "Of course (I knew it was coming)... I knew such a situation would come after seeing their playing XI. I was mentally ready. Luckily, I scored those crucial runs for the team," Jadeja said of India's famous five-wicket win against Pakistan in the Asia Cup opener on Sunday.
