In the video shot by his mother after a bullying incident at school, an inconsolable Bayles was heard saying he wants to kill himself. He was reportedly bullied by one of his schoolmates over his height. Bayles, in fact, has a genetic disorder that results in dwarfism.&nbsp;

The footballer jokingly vowed to never wash his clothes after he gave his 'first' assist to&nbsp;Messi.

The 3rd day of the 1st Test started with India taking a wicket on the first ball as&nbsp;Ishant&nbsp;Sharma&nbsp;registered impressive&nbsp;figures of 5 for 68. However, the Kiwi batting line up survived the attack long enough to take a 183 run lead before they were bowled out. India was hoping to not repeat the day 1 disaster but with Prithvi Shaw, Pujara and Kohli&nbsp;removed early by Trent Boult, the task fell on Mayank&nbsp;Agarwal's&nbsp;shoulder to carry the innings forward. Agarwal&nbsp;smashed a 99 ball 58 to bring India's game back to life before he was dismissed by Tim Southee. Day 3 ended with India on 144 for 4, trailing by 39 runs, indicating that the Kiwis are still very much in control.&nbsp;

Levante&nbsp;registered a shocking 1-0 win against Real Madrid in La Liga&nbsp;on Saturday, inflicting Real's first league defeat since October last year.

Playing against the team of their former manager Jose Mourinho, the blues showed fantastic&nbsp;skills and added 2 goals to the scoreboard. An own goal by&nbsp;Antonio Rudiger&nbsp;that deflected into the net was the only achievement of the game for Tottenham who were playing without Harry Kane and Son&nbsp;Heung-min. With this, Chelsea sits on the 4th spot on the table, 4 points clear of Tottenham.&nbsp;

Defending Premier League champions Manchester City registered their 2nd win since the 2-year ban by UEFA&nbsp;after they beat Leicester&nbsp;City 1-0 on Saturday.

City has now solidified its place in the 2nd spot on the Premier League table, 19-points behind Liverpool.&nbsp;

Ishant Sharma&nbsp;arrived in New Zealand&nbsp;just 4 days before the Wellington Test, thanks to his last-minute drafting in the squad, the Delhi lad brought India's game to life after they were toppled by the Kiwis in the first innings. The 31-year-old took 5 wickets giving away just 68 runs to complete his 11th 5-wicket haul in Test format.

It was Darren Sammy who agreed to play in the&nbsp;PSL&nbsp;while a majority of the international players refused to do so because of security concerns.&nbsp;

Rishabh Pant may have lost his chance to impress with the bat but his wicket proved&nbsp;beneficial for the Black Caps. New Zealand&nbsp;pacer, Tim Southee&nbsp;believes that Pant's&nbsp;run-out changed the course of the Indian innings which winded up at a below-par score of 165 in the first Test on Saturday. Pant who showed some promise with his batting partner Ajinkya&nbsp;Rahane&nbsp;lost his wicket due to Rahane's&nbsp;poor call for a single. India quickly collapsed after Rahane&nbsp;was also shown the door by&nbsp;Southee. India lost 5 wickets for 33 runs after Pant's&nbsp;dismissal.

Jurgen&nbsp;Klopp,&nbsp;who is&nbsp;on his way to take Liverpool to their 1st top-flight title in 30 years, has received a rather unique letter... from a sad Manchester United fan. 10-year-old Daragh&nbsp;complained to the Liverpool manager that the Reds were winning too many games and requested&nbsp;him if he could make his team lose a few games so that they don't win the Premier League. The 52-year-old manager sent Daragh&nbsp;a warm reply saying that he can't grant his request as millions of fans want Liverpool to win. He further added that although Liverpool and United are great rivals they&nbsp;respect each other and that according to him is what football is all about. Though the date of letters is not known, interestingly, Liverpool met a shocking 1-0 defeat against Atletico&nbsp;Madrid in the 1st leg of their Round of 16 tie in the Champions League on Wednesday.

Mithali&nbsp;singled out Poonam&nbsp;Yadav's performance and said that the spinner's brilliant spell of 4 for 19 was the turning point for India.&nbsp;

Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson is expected to miss around 3 weeks of action due to his hamstring injury, manager&nbsp;Jurgen&nbsp;Klopp&nbsp;confirmed on Friday.
