Despite the fact of Pak ban in IPL, Hasan Ali's keen desire to join the prestigious Indian Premier League (IPL), reflecting on the historical context of Pakistani cricketers' participation.

Pakistan's face pacer Hasan Ali keen yto play in IPL if opportunity arises. Pak players banned in IPL since 2009.&nbsp;

Pakistan's pace sensation, Hasan Ali, expressed his keen desire to participate in the prestigious Indian Premier League (IPL) if opportunity arises. In 2008, renowned Pakistani cricketers such as Shoaib Akhtar, Mohammad Hafeez, Salman Butt, Kamran Akmal, and Sohail Tanvir had participated in the IPL.&nbsp;
Unfortunately, political tensions between India and Pakistan led to a ban on Pakistani players' involvement in the IPL from 2009 onwards.
Despite this historical constraint, Hasan Ali, who recently showcased his skills on Indian land during the World Cup 2023, lauded the IPL as "one of the biggest leagues" globally.
In an interview with Samaa TV, Hasan Ali emphasised his aspiration to partake in the IPL, acknowledging it as a significant cricketing platform. He stated, "Every player wants to play IPL, and it is my wish to play there. It is one of the biggest leagues in the world, and I will definitely play there if there is an opportunity in the future."
Reflecting on his recent performance in the World Cup, Hasan Ali demonstrated commendable prowess by securing nine wickets in six matches, boasting an impressive average of 6.29, including a notable four-wicket haul. His return to ODI cricket during the World Cup came after Naseem Shah suffered an ankle injury in the Asia Cup 2023 Super Four match against India in Colombo.
Notably, Hasan Ali has excelled in the Pakistan Super League (PSL), representing both Peshawar Zalmi and Islamabad United.&nbsp;
Currently occupying the second po sition in the all-time leading wicket-takers list in PSL, Hasan stands just six wickets away from joining the elite club of bowlers with 100 or more scalps in the league's history, trailing behind Wahab Riaz.

Gujrat Titans confirmed the return of Hardik Pandya to Mumbai Indians and revealed Pandya wanted to go back to MI.&nbsp;

In a highly anticipated announcement, both Mumbai Indians and Gujarat Titans have officially confirmed the return of Hardik Pandya to the Mumbai franchise for the 2024 season of the Indian Premier League (IPL).&nbsp;
Pandya, a key player in Mumbai Indians' triumphs in four out of five IPL seasons from 2015 to 2021, had ventured to the Gujarat Titans, leading them to victory in their inaugural season in 2022.
Despite the Titans reaching the IPL final last year, the team faced an unexpected setback with the departure of their captain. Speculations arose, suggesting that Mumbai Indians would need to match the Titans' substantial annual fee of Rs 15 crore to secure Pandya's return in the mega auction. The deal also involved the transfer of Australian all-rounder Cameron Green from Mumbai Indians to Royal Challengers Bangalore.
In a joint statement released on Monday, both teams shed light on the decision to release Pandya. Vikram Solanki, the Director of Cricket for the Titans, acknowledged Pandya's significant contributions and stated, "As the first captain of Gujarat Titans, Hardik Pandya has played a pivotal role in delivering two fantastic seasons, resulting in winning one IPL championship and reaching the final. He has now expressed a desire to return to his original team, Mumbai Indians. We respect his decision and wish him all the very best in his future endeavours."
Conversely, Mumbai Indians expressed their delight at Pandya rejoining their squad. Nita Ambani, the team's representative, expressed enthusiasm, stating, "We are thrilled to welcome Hardik back home! It&rsquo;s a heartwarming reunion with our Mumbai Indians family! From being a young scouted talent of Mumbai Indians to now being a Team India star, Hardik has come a long way, and we&rsquo;re excited about what the future holds for him and Mumbai Indians!"

Champions Trophy 2025 likely to be relocated from Pakistan as India unwilling to travel to the country due to political tensions.&nbsp;&nbsp;

As per the reports, the Champions Trophy, returning to international cricket in 2025 with 8 top teams, faces a venue shift from Pakistan due to ongoing political tensions with India.&nbsp;
Originally set to host the tournament, Pakistan's hosting is uncertain as India remains unwilling to travel amid strained relations. Likely alternatives include Dubai or a hybrid model, similar to the recent Asia Cup.
Concerns arose when the BCCI rejected the possibility of the Indian team playing in Pakistan during the Asia Cup, prompting doubts about the Champions Trophy. While the Asia Cup found a resolution with an ACC-approved hybrid model, replicating this for the ICC event with 8 world-class teams remains uncertain.
With the potential move, the U.A.E emerges as a practical alternative, having been used previously when Pakistan faced hosting challenges. If finalised, this shift could mark the U.A.E's inaugural hosting of the Champions Trophy.

Argentine winger Alejandro Garnacho stole the show, three minutes into the game with his overhead bicycle strike that gave the Red Devils a lead vs Everton.&nbsp;

Manchester United defeated Everton 3-0 on Sunday but something else remained etched in the minds of fans, long after play ended.&nbsp; Three minutes into that game, United's Alejandro Garnacho produced a sublime piece of skill that will go down as one of the great Premier League goals.
The 19-year-old Argentine sprang to meet Diogo Dalot's hanging cross flush on the volley and fire into Jordan Pickford's top left-hand corner.&nbsp; Silence fell in Goodison Park and the protesting Everton fans watched in wonder as Garnacho wove his magic. <iframe title="YouTube video player" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/qgmhQZzoy1s?si=FqYOTdSKeJHb7-VH&amp;start=20" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe> But for world football, this stunner was all but a recreation of former United star Wayne Rooney's iconic 2011 strike.&nbsp; In a similar fashion, Rooney struck in the 78th minute versus Manchester City at Old Trafford. Rooney's bicycle kick was hit from 14 yards at a pace of 62 km/hr.

Garnacho, meanwhile, bettered that record by a margin. He was 17 yards from the goalpost and the ball shot through at 57 km/hr.&nbsp; As the teenager drew comparisons with Rooney and Cristiano Ronaldo, manager Erik ten Hag praised his skills but refused to compare.&nbsp; According to ten Hag, the Argentine striker has a lot of work to do before he can be considered on par with the two football greats.&nbsp;

#AzamKhan #PCB #ICC

Pakistan's Azam Khan faced a 50% fine of his match fees for displaying Palestinian flag on his bat.

In the National T20 tournament in Karachi, Azam Khan, the middle-order batter for Karachi Whites, faced a 50% fine of his match fees. The penalty was imposed for violating clothing and equipment regulations by displaying an "unapproved logo", in this case, the flag of Palestine, during a game against Lahore Blues. Azam scored 35 runs before being summoned by match referee Mohammad Javed.
A reliable source confirmed to Geo News that Azam had indeed been fined, shedding light on the breach of the ICC code of conduct. The flamboyant batter had been warned earlier not to showcase the flag on his bat. Despite the warning, Azam argued that all his bats had identical stickers.
The ICC regulations explicitly prohibit players from displaying messages with political, religious, or racial undertones on their clothing or equipment. The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), as a signatory to these rules, confirmed that Azam was charged with violating these regulations.
PCB sources revealed that Azam had used the same sticker in two previous National T20 Cup games without facing any warnings.
However, during the recent match, the breach was addressed, resulting in a fine.
This incident follows Pakistan's cricket team expressing solidarity with Palestine during the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup in October.&nbsp;
At that time, questions were raised by Indian fans and cricket experts regarding the permissibility of such political gestures in the tournament. The PCB dismissed objections, asserting that the team's expression of solidarity was a personal decision.

#JannikSinner #DavisCup 

Jannik Sinner has won Davis Cup title for Italy in nearly five decades. Sinner took beat Alex de Mi&ntilde;aur 6-3, 6-0 in the second singles match of Sunday's final.&nbsp;

Jannik Sinner capped his perfect week by leading Italy to its first Davis Cup title in nearly five decades.
Sinner took his record to 6-0 this week by beating Alex de Mi&ntilde;aur 6-3, 6-0 in the second singles match of Sunday's final, giving Italy a 2-0 win over Australia for its first Davis Cup title since 1976.
Matteo Arnaldi had given Italy the first point with a 7-5, 2-6, 6-4 win over Alexei Popyrin.
The No. 4 Sinner beat top-ranked Novak Djokovic in the singles and doubles matches in Saturday's semifinal showdown against Serbia. The 22-year-old Italian needed 1 hour, 21 minutes to seal Italy's victory against Australia.
Historic Italian Triumph
&ldquo;We are all very young. We are really hungry to try to win it one more time for our life, but having this feeling at least once, it is a really special feeling,&rdquo; said Sinner, who has beaten nine top-10 players since September, though he lost to Djokovic in the ATP Tour Finals a week ago. Arnaldi earlier saved eight break points before getting a break of his own to close out the first match in the decisive third set.
&ldquo;I think I won one of the most important matches of my life,&rdquo; the 44th-ranked Arnaldi said. The Italians, who had never won the title other than in 1976, had lost the three finals it played against Australia, which was last year's runner-up to Canada.
Australia eliminated Finland in the last four this year. The Aussies are 28-time champions but haven't lifted the trophy at men's tennis top team event since captain Lleyton Hewitt was on the winning squad as a player in 2003.
&ldquo;There hasn't been another nation that's gone back-to-back in the last two years, so we are showing a pretty good effort collectively,&rdquo; De Mi&ntilde;aur said.
"We are very, very close. It stinks like hell. We'll be back. We'll get this. I mean, we've got a very, very strong future ahead of us.&rdquo;
Australia this year became just the second nation to win 200 Davis Cup ties, with the United States being the other.
Matteo Berrettini was not in the Italian team because of an injury but he was in Malaga supporting his countrymen.
&ldquo;Thanks to Matteo,&rdquo; Sinner said.
&ldquo;He has had a very tough year (with) a lot of injuries. For all of us, that he came here, it means a lot. He gave us a lot of positive energy.&rdquo;
The final 8 of the Davis Cup Finals will stay in Malaga for another year.
Spain was awarded a wild card Sunday for the group stage in Valencia. This year's finalists, Italy and Australia, also go straight through to the group stage in September. So does Great Britain, which lost to Serbia in the quarterfinals.
The women's Billie Jean King Cup Finals will remain in the southern Spanish city of Seville next year.&nbsp;

 WTC Final 2023: KS Bharat or Ishan Kishan, who will make the cut as wicket-keeper? | IND vs AUS

Rohit Sharma has to pick between KS Bharat, who most recently played the 2023 BGT Series, and Ishan Kishan who is yet to make his Test debut.

With the World Test Championship Final just a day away, Team India&rsquo;s main conundrum remains the choice for wicket-keeper.&nbsp;
Rohit Sharma has two options in Ishan Kishan and KS Bharat, in the absence of regular Rishabh Pant behind the wickets.
On Monday, when India hit the nets for the afternoon training session, both Kishan and Bharat practised wicket-keeping before moving to work on their batting.&nbsp;
Figures from the domestic circuit favour KS Bharat, as well as experience playing versus Australia in the 2023 Border-Gavaskar Series.&nbsp;
Ishan Kishan is yet to make his Test debut and India is unlikely to field a newcomer against a powerful side like Australia.
The final practice session is expected to throw more light on the Playing Eleven.

It was Maxwell's 4th T20I hundred and he has now equalled Rohit Sharma's record of scoring the most tons in the shortest format of the game.

A run-chase of 223 looked very tough and with Australia reduced to 68/3, India seemed on course to seal the 5-match T20I series with 2 games left.
But entered Glenn Maxwell and ran riot.
He went into beast mode and single-handedly carried his side over the finish line with an unbeaten 48-ball-104.
Courtesy of his super knock Australia stayed alive in the 5-match series.
It was Maxwell's 4th T20I hundred and he has now equalled Rohit Sharma's record of scoring the most tons in the shortest format of the game.
However, the Aussie power hitter took 48 innings less than the hitman to achieve the milestone. What made the feat even more special was the fact that Maxwell was playing his 100th T20I.
While the Aussies stayed on track in the chase, quick wickets saw them looking for some inspiration at 134/5 within 14 overs.
But Cometh the hour, cometh the man as Glenn Maxwell showed why he is the best finisher around in T20s and helped Australia win with 5 wickets to spare.
A much needed innings by Maxwell saw the Aussies take the series to the 4th game now with India still leading the series by 2-1.

Gaikwad slammed a career-best 123 not out off just 57 balls with 13 fours and seven sixes, a first ton by an Indian batter against Australia in T20 Internationals.

Ruturaj Gaikwad displayed brute power and wonderful technique in equal measure with a maiden hundred that propelled India to a commanding 222 for 3 against Australia in the third T20 International here on Tuesday.
Gaikwad slammed a career-best 123 not out off just 57 balls with 13 fours and seven sixes, a first ton by an Indian batter against Australia in T20 Internationals.
The 30 runs that Gaikwad took off Glenn Maxwell in the 20th over could prove to be a game-changer. Skipper Matthew Wade's decision to give a part-time off-spinner 20th over of the innings backfired big-time.
On a wicket that had some extra bounce and swing, India had a shaky start losing their both their in-form batters Yashasvi Jaiswal (6) and Ishan Kishan (0) cheaply after Matthew Wade opted to bowl to make use of the dewy conditions.
Skipper Suryakumar Yadav (39; 29b) looked set for a big knock with two sixes and five boundaries before debutant pacer Aaron Hardie dismissed him with a short ball just after the halfway mark.
With run-rate not an issue -- eight per over -- they needed someone to anchor their innings, and the Indian vice-captain Gaikwad played the role to perfection.
From 13 off 15 balls, the right-hander with orthodox technique, who often drew flak for his slow starts, switched gears after Surya's dismissal, displaying the wide array of shots in his repertoire.
His knock was not just about classical drives in the V but also a testament to his brute power. He packed a lot of punch in his pulls and an inside-out maximums. It was a different Gaikwad on display during last six overs.
Once he got his furst 50 off 32 balls, he then went berserk, taking another 20 to bring up his maiden triple digit score in the last over of Maxwell.
Gaikwad muscled Maxwell over wide long to to bring up his century with a six as he smashed two more in the same over that yielded 30 runs as India amassed 200-plus totals in each of the three T20Is so far.&nbsp;
