Strict rules imposed by the Japanese government on athletes from several Covid-hit nations for the Tokyo Games hasn't gone down well with India's Olympic body.&nbsp;
Slamming the rules, the Indian Olympic Association said that since the athletes are allowed to arrive in the Games village only five days before their event, it will cause them to lose three crucial training days.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Tokyo 2020 organisers said Monday that additional measures will be used to reduce infection risks from several countries, including India. The athletes will be refrained from coming into contact with other teams for three days after they arrive in Japan.
In the statement,&nbsp;IOA&nbsp;said that it's highly unfair for Indian athletes, who have worked hard for five years, to be discriminated just five days before the Olympics.

In a major blow to France, forward Ousmane Dembele has been ruled out of the European Championship because of a knee injury sustained during the team&rsquo;s 1-1 draw with Hungary on Saturday.
Dembele&nbsp;had come on to the field in the 2nd half of that game as a substitute and made an immediate impact but later limped off the ground.&nbsp;
The French Football Federation in a statement confirmed that&nbsp;Dembele had an X-ray at the Budapest hospital on Sunday night and&nbsp;the recovery time was incompatible with him staying in the squad.

Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga&nbsp;of Japan on Monday said that the Tokyo Olympics may be held without spectators if the Covid-19 situation in Japan worsens closer to the games. Suga&nbsp;confirmed that he will not hesitate to put another state of emergency to contain the spread of the virus if cases surge. The Japanese government&nbsp;lifted a state of emergency for&nbsp;Tokyo&nbsp;last week but kept in place "quasi-emergency" restrictions until July 11. The Tokyo Olympics are scheduled to start on 23rd July but the decision regarding spectators in the stands will be taken closer to the date. Previously the organising committee had agreed to allow&nbsp;10,000 spectators to enter each games venue, provided it does not exceed 50 percent of a venue's capacity.&nbsp;

The 43-year-old was competing in the men's category till 2013 before transitioning. She became eligible to compete in the women's events in 2015 when the International Olympic Committee&nbsp;changed its guidelines to include transgender&nbsp;athletes in the competition. The Kiwi athlete won a silver at the 2017 World Championship and now has a world ranking of 17.&nbsp;

The organising committee and the health ministry are looking into the case but the local media reports confirmed that all athletes were vaccinated and carried negative reports.&nbsp;

Rain may have stayed away on day 3 of the World Test Championship final but India didn't have a great outing. New Zealand&nbsp;dominated throughout to end the day at 101/2, trailing India by 116 runs.&nbsp;
Onus was on Virat&nbsp;Kohli&nbsp;to carry on but he fell without adding a single run to his overnight score of 44. Kyle&nbsp;Jamieson&nbsp;ran through the Indian line up with a 5-wicket haul as Kohli's men went from 149/3 to being all out for just&nbsp;217. Kiwi openers took their side off to a strong start with 70-run stand before both got out within a span of 31 runs.&nbsp;
With rain predicted on day 4, India needs to keep making quick inroads in order to not let the match slip away.

Formula One championship leader&nbsp;Verstappen overtook Lewis Hamilton on the penultimate lap.&nbsp;A bonus point for the fastest lap made it a great day for Red Bull, which had never beaten Mercedes on the Paul Ricard circuit.&nbsp;Verstappen has 131 points while Hamilton has 119 after seven races.

World's richest cricket board, BCCI has decided to provide financial assistance worth Rs.&nbsp;10 crore&nbsp;to&nbsp;Tokyo-bound athletes. The decision was taken during the Apex council meeting on Sunday.
After almost all sporting events, including the Tokyo Olympics, were either cancelled or postponed in 2020&nbsp;due to the Covid-19 pandemic, most sports bodies took a financial brunt. But this generous help by the BCCI&nbsp;will help the Indian Olympic Association big time.&nbsp;
BCCI&nbsp;will also help in the promotional campaigns of the Indian contingent. The Indian Olympic Association&nbsp;is expected to send around a 190-200-member contingent for the Olympic Games starting July 23.

The Tokyo Organizing Committee of the Olympic and Paralympic&nbsp;unveiled details of services which will be provided at the Village Plaza during the Tokyo 2020&nbsp;Games.
The village, which can sleep 18,000 athletes and team members during the Olympics and 8,000 during the Paralympics, has many warning posters that caution residents to take antivirus measures including room ventilation. Interestingly, the village also has a fever clinic, separate from the main medical facility, which will be used to test and isolate people suspected of virus infection or considered close contacts of those who test positive.
Organisers are trying to build confidence that the mega-event will be safe for athletes and the Japanese public.

Virat&nbsp;Kohli&nbsp;looked determined for a big score in the World Test Championship final when he ended day 2 unbeaten on 44, but the Indian skipper fell pray to Kyle Jamieson&nbsp;early on day 3 without adding any run.
It proved as to why the New Zealander&nbsp;refused to bowl at the Indian skipper with the Dukes ball during the IPL. Interestingly,&nbsp;Jamieson was&nbsp;playing his first IPL after being bought by RCB&nbsp;this year and was&nbsp;carrying a couple of Dukes balls with him. Looking to prepare for the WTC&nbsp;final, Kohli&nbsp;asked&nbsp;Jamieson&nbsp;to bowl at him with the Dukes ball but the fast bowler didn't fall for that trick.
Clearly, it worked as the tall pacer got the better of Indian skipper as Virat's&nbsp;10th anniversary in Tests didn't turn out as he would have liked it to.

Poland held Spain to a 1-1 draw on Sunday in&nbsp;their Euro 2020 fixture. Alvaro&nbsp;Morato&nbsp;scored the first goal of the game in the 25th min. This was equalised by Polish striker Robert Lewandowski&nbsp;in the 2nd half of the game. While Luis Enrique's team created chances to double their lead, they failed to do so.&nbsp; The 3 time Euro champions have still not won a game in Euro 2020 as they registered a stalemate against Sweden in their opening game. The draw means that all the four teams in Group E are still eligible to qualify for the knockouts ahead of the final round of the match in the coming week.&nbsp;

Former world champions Germany have moved to the second spot in Group F of Euro 2020 after defeating current European champions Portugal 4-2.&nbsp;
Christiano&nbsp;Ronaldo&nbsp;put Portugal ahead 15 minutes into the match but the lead didn't last long as Germany surged ahead with 2 goals due to own goals by&nbsp;Portugese players Ruben Dias and Rapheal&nbsp;Guerreiro&nbsp;in 35th and 39th minutes respectively.&nbsp;
6 minutes after half-time Kavi&nbsp;Havertz&nbsp;made the scoreline&nbsp;3-1 for Germany and Robin Gosens&nbsp;added to the tally after finding the back of the net in 60th minute. Portugal scored in 67th minute to make the scoreline 4-2 and that is where it remained at the end of 90 minutes.&nbsp;

After England enforced the follow on, not many gave the Indian team much of a chance to bounce back into the Test, but the women fought back hard to pull of a draw in the one-off Test, which was no less than a win.&nbsp;
Shafali Verma&nbsp;fell early on the 4th and final day for 63 and India soon found themselves at 199/7. Just then it seemed that that the defeat was near,&nbsp;Sneh Rana&nbsp;stood tall. She dug deep with a match saving 80 not out. It is now the highest score by an Indian batting at number 6 or lower in Women's Test cricket. She was well supported by Tania Bhatiya who remained unbeaten on 44. India's 2nd innings ended with 344/8 and the Test with a lead of 179 runs.&nbsp;

After day 1 of the World Test Championship match was washed away due to rain, day 2 was an eventful one. India batted well to reach 146/3, before bad light forced early stumps.
Put into bat, openers Rohit&nbsp;Sharma&nbsp;and Shubman Gill took India off to a strong start and stitched a 62-run stand. But New Zealand fought back with 3 quick wickets and reduced India to 88/3. That's when Virat&nbsp;Kohli&nbsp;dropped anchor and scored a commanding 44 not out. The skipper found a willing ally in his deputy Ajinkya&nbsp;Rahane&nbsp;who remained unbeaten on 29.&nbsp;
With some rain expected on day 3 as well, India would hope this duo to carry on strongly.

There's a huge twist in the battle for Round of 16 in Group F, as Hungary stunned world champions France and held them to a 1-1 draw at the Puskas&nbsp;Stadium on Saturday night.
Attila Fiola&nbsp;sent shockwaves&nbsp;when he put Hungary ahead just before halftime. He&nbsp;is the first player to score against France across all competitions in the last six games.
It looked like Hungary would pull off the upset of the tournament but&nbsp;Antoine Griezmann&nbsp;scored an equaliser in the 66th minute. His 38th goal for the national side in 93 outings, helped France rescue a point as the World Champions remain unbeaten to go top of Group F.

Head coach of the Indian cricket team Ravi&nbsp;Shastri&nbsp;has rated the World Test Championship as the big daddy of all World Cups.&nbsp;
Shastri&nbsp;said that&nbsp;he has played the 1983 World Cup, commentated on multiple marquee tournaments but this one is the biggest of them all. He added that it's the toughest format, the biggest format with maximum job satisfaction.
The 59-year-old though also said that these things are very exciting from the outside where there is so much importance that's attached to one game but for him, it's just another&nbsp;Test match that has to be played.
