Senior Pakistani cricketer Mohd&nbsp;Hafeez&nbsp;has been put in 5-day isolation after he reportedly breached the social distancing protocols in the biosecure bubble in England. The batsman who is part of Pakistan's limited-overs&nbsp;squad for the series against England clicked a picture with a senior citizen while on a walk in the golf course inside the biosecure&nbsp;bubble where the team is staying. As a precautionary measure, the 39-year old was put in isolation and can join the team after a negative test report. The Pakistan Cricket Board is expected to reprimand the former captain as this could have not only affected him but his teammates in the biosecure bubble.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Ravindra&nbsp;Jadeja is all set to miss the 5-day long training camp organised by his side Chennai Super Kings in India before their departure to the UAE&nbsp;for the Indian Premier League.

Kings XI Punjab's Karun&nbsp;Nair has recovered from Covid-19. According to a report in ESPNCricinfo, the right-handed batsman caught the virus some time ago and isolated himself for 2 weeks and followed up with a negative test result. Nair who scored a triple hundred in Test cricket for India is the first high-profile cricketer to have contracted the deadly virus. The report also suggests that Nair has fully recovered and is expected to join his teammates in Kings XI Punjab and is looking forward to playing in the Indian Premier League. The IPL&nbsp;Governing Council has laid out some rigorous process for the players and support staff including multiple tests and a compulsory week-long quarantine before the tournament in the UAE.&nbsp;

Atalanta&nbsp;did everything right against French giants Paris St Germain&nbsp;till right at the end. They scored an opening goal in the first half through&nbsp;Mario Pasalic&nbsp;and maintained that lead to keep away the likes of Neymar, Icardi and Mbappe&nbsp;for almost 90 mins of play in Lisbon during their Champions League quarterfinal clash. But things took a dramatic turn as if the script was written by a PSG fan as the team scored twice in less than 3 mins&nbsp;right at the end.&nbsp;Marquinhos&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting&nbsp;scored in the 90th &amp; 93rd min of play to complete a 2-1 dramatic turnaround for the French&nbsp;side as they entered their maiden European semifinal&nbsp;since 1994-95 season.&nbsp;

But according to him, it's not feasible to hold the tournament this month under those restrictions. Lanka&nbsp;Premier League was scheduled to be played from August 28 to September 20 but&nbsp;Sri&nbsp;Lanka&nbsp;Cricket&nbsp;vice-president Ravin Wickramaratne told ESPNcricinfo&nbsp;that it was not feasible to simply push the tournament back several weeks, as it would have then clashed with the proposed dates for the IPL, which is due to start from September 19 in the UAE.&nbsp;

Tennis may be bearing the brunt of Covid-19 with many tournaments being cancelled or postponed, but Australian Open&nbsp;director Craig Tiley is confident of hosting the Grand Slam in its usual January slot with full prize money and fans in the stands. During an interview, he said that ticket sales will start in October and 5 bio-secure bubbles will be opened across the country from&nbsp;the first of December and players can come at any time.

Every year several Indian sports stars burst on the stage and make the world sit up and take notice of them. On this International Youth Day, we look at a few talented rising Indian teenagers who are making waves into the sporting world.
Lakshya Sen
During an era largely dominated by Saina&nbsp;Nehwal,&nbsp;PV Sindhu&nbsp;and Kidambi Srikanth, one Indian shuttler&nbsp;who has been making quick name for himself is&nbsp;18-year-old Lakshya&nbsp;Sen. He clinched 5 titles between October-December last year and&nbsp;rose from 109 at the start of the season to 27 in the world ranking.
Manu Bhaker and Saurabh Chaudhary
The deadly duo of&nbsp;Manu Bhaker and Saurabh Chaudhary&nbsp;have been the driving force of Indian shooting. Everything the&nbsp;18-year-olds&nbsp;touched turn gold as the duo&nbsp;swept all the 4 gold medals in mixed air pistol World Cups in 2019. Manu&nbsp;also finished at the top of the podium in both the 2018 Commonwealth Games and the 2019 Asian Championship.
Shafali Verma
At just 16 years of age, Shafali&nbsp;Verma&nbsp;stunned the cricketing world with her brutal power hitting. After playing just 18 T20I, India's young batting sensation&nbsp;had attained the number 1 spot in&nbsp;ICC Women&rsquo;s T20I batting rankings and was instrumental in India reaching the final of the&nbsp;recently concluded Women's World T20.&nbsp;

The club added that the asymptomatic player was not in their squad and is in good health. He was been quarantined at home&nbsp;and everyone who came in contact with him would be tested.

After losing the 1st Test in Manchester from a commanding position, Pakistan may be frustrated as to how they returned empty handed but they now need to put that behind as focus shifts to an all-important 2nd Test in Southampton. Where&nbsp;Azhar&nbsp;Ali's men would fight to win it to keep themselves alive in the series, England would hope to clinch their first Test series vs Pakistan in their own backyard for the first time in 10 years. The last 2 Test series between these 2 sides in England ended in a draw. Both teams also have selection headache.&nbsp;England will be without the services&nbsp;of their star all-rounder Ben Stokes who had to pull out of the series due to family emergency. Pakistan on the other hand were criticized for going in with 2 leg spinners in the 1st Test and may bring in an extra batsman to strengthen the middle order. The visitors&nbsp;may have been the better side so far but need to find out a away to go take that extra step this time around.

In a major blow for Rajasthan&nbsp;Royals ahead of the Indian Premier League season 13, fielding coach Dishant&nbsp;Yangnik&nbsp;has tested positive for Covid-19. In a tweet on Wednesday, the former wicket-keeper batsman said that he tested positive and is under a 14-day quarantine in a hospital in Udaipur.&nbsp;&nbsp;According to BCCI&nbsp;protocols, Yagnik&nbsp;would need 2 negative Covid-19 tests before he can join the team in the UAE. The tests were done by the Rajasthan&nbsp;Royals management as they prepare the team and support staff for the league. This is the first known positive result so far from the Indian cricket fraternity which is about to embark on a risky journey to the UAE&nbsp;to play the IPL.&nbsp;

After Covid-19 positive Mandeep&nbsp;Singh&nbsp;was shifted to&nbsp;a multi-speciality hospital on Tuesday after a dip in his blood oxygen level, the Sports Authority of India has now shifted the other 5 hockey players who also contracted the virus to the same hospital in Bengaluru on Tuesday.SAI in a statement said that the decision to hospitalise them was taken so as to ensure that the players were attended to at all times and could be given the best possible treatment. All 6 athletes are in good health and recovering well.&nbsp;Indian hockey has been rocked by the deadly virus as 6 players including&nbsp;captain&nbsp;Manpreet Singh&nbsp;were diagnosed with Covid-19 last week&nbsp;after returning to the national hockey camp at the SAI South Centre in Bengaluru following a month-long break.

After a Covid-19 scare which saw 2 positive reports in the squad, Atletico&nbsp;Madrid travelled to Lisbon to play their Champions League quarterfinal clash against German club RB Leipzig. The finalists in&nbsp;2016 travelled without Angel Correa and Sime Vrsaljko who are now in home isolation after testing positive. Despite the bad news, Diego Simone's men will be looking to carry forward their form after the resumption of football which saw them finish 3rd in the league. Before the Covid-19 break, Atletico&nbsp;knocked out defending champions Liverpool but it won't be an easy road ahead as Leipzig are known for their giant-killing acts.&nbsp;

Despite Vivo's&nbsp;exit from the Indian Premier League, BCCI is confident about avoiding a major loss despite losing a chunk of money.

The existing&nbsp;3 official partners club will expand to 5 as BCCI&nbsp;aims to recover the losses from Vivo's&nbsp;exit. According to a report in the Times of India, BCCI&nbsp;is aiming to generate close to&nbsp;₹40 crores&nbsp;each from the 2 new slots, the new title sponsor might sign up for around&nbsp;₹300 crores as the rights are only available till the end of this year. The report also suggests that E-learning platform BYJU's, Amazon India &amp; cricket fantasy platform Dream 11 are the top contenders while credit card payment service Cred&nbsp;and upcoming E-learning platform Unacademy&nbsp;are the dark horses in the race. The bidding war ends on 14th August at 5 pm.&nbsp;

He may be 39 but MS Dhoni&nbsp;is still the top priority for IPL&nbsp;side Chennai Super Kings. CEO&nbsp;Kasi&nbsp;Viswanathan&nbsp;in an interview to India Today confirmed that the management &amp; the team isn't worried about their captain. Viswanathan&nbsp;went on to say that Dhoni&nbsp;could still represent CSK&nbsp;till 2022 and he knows his responsibilities with the team. Kasi&nbsp;went on to predict that after retirement, Dhoni&nbsp;could become the permanent&nbsp;boss of the IPL&nbsp;franchise based out of Chennai.

Paris St Germain's manager Thomas Tuchel&nbsp;hobbled along as his team practised ahead of their Champions League quarterfinal tie vs Italian side&nbsp;Atalanta&nbsp;in Lisbon. Some good news for PSG&nbsp;fans as their star forward&nbsp;Kylian Mbappe&nbsp;was seen on the pitch before the game and could make a return after an injury almost 3 weeks ago in the&nbsp;French Cup final. Atalanta&nbsp;might be considered as minnows but PSG&nbsp;won't be taking any chances as the new format of the Champions&nbsp;League due to the Covid-19 pandemic makes it even more unpredictable. There are no 2nd legs and all matches from now on are knockouts. The French side will be going all out to register a win with Mbappe, Neymar&nbsp;&amp; Icardi as they are looking to secure their&nbsp;first European Cup semi-final spot since the 1994-95 season.

Stuart Broad was fined 15% match fee for breaching the code of conduct during the 1st Test vs Pakistan. Broad accepted the charges of using inappropriate language during the match. Interestingly, the match referee happened to be Stuart Broad's&nbsp;father - Chris Broad who has been a former English cricketer and a Test official since 2003. Stuart saw the funny side of this story and tweeted to say that his father&nbsp;is off the Christmas card &amp; present list. Surely all is well in the Broad household as this story will forever remain part of dinner table conversations.&nbsp;

IPL&nbsp;teams may have been using local bowlers to bowl to their star batsmen in the nets but the strict bio-security measures this time&nbsp;means that all franchises will have to arrange for quality bowlers who will travel with them to the UAE.&nbsp;At least 3 franchises, Chennai Super Kings, Kolkata Knight Riders and Delhi Capitals have confirmed that they are preparing a roster of net bowlers and the list comprises mostly of first-class, Under-19 and Under-23 state-level players. CSK&nbsp;CEO Kasi Vishwanathan told PTI on Tuesday that if all goes well, the selected bowlers will&nbsp;accompany the team and will remain till the tournament starts. All teams are set to&nbsp;leave for UAE&nbsp;after August 20.

New Zealand&nbsp;Cricket on Tuesday confirmed that their upcoming home series against&nbsp;Pakistan, Australia, Bangladesh and the West Indies will go ahead despite the pandemic.

All people coming into New Zealand are currently required to maintain at least 14 days of strictly supervised quarantine. This&nbsp;week, New Zealand marked 100 days since its last case of community transmission and&nbsp;spectators are being allowed at sports and cultural events.

Indian hockey star Mandeep&nbsp;Singh&nbsp;who tested positive for Covid-19 was shifted to a multi-speciality hospital on Tuesday.&nbsp;Sports Authority of India in a statement said that during night monitoring of vitals on August 10, it was found that Mandeep's blood oxygen level was dropping below normal which indicated that he is moving from mild to moderate severity of Covid-19. SAI&nbsp;has though confirmed that his condition is currently stable.
