English footballer Jake Daniels is the first openly gay footballer in the UK since 1990. His announcement is now a significant trailblazing moment for the European football as the 17-year-old revealed the news. The&nbsp;17-year-old who plays for 2nd decision side Blackpool in English football just finished his debut season.
Also read:&nbsp;HIGHLIGHTS: Liverpool beat Chelsea on penalties to lift its 8th title
Jake in a statement said, "This season has been a fantastic one for me on the pitch.&nbsp;But off the pitch I've been hiding the real me and who I really am. I've known my whole life that I'm gay, and I now feel that I'm ready to come out and be myself."
While women's football has several &nbsp;LGBTQ+ players, the men's game lacks players who are publicly gay. Daniels said he was inspired by Josh Cavallo of Australian football team Adelaide United who is the only openly gay man currently playing in a top division football team across the world.&nbsp;
While the move attracted a lot of trolls on social media, the English Football Association or the FA came out in support of the 17-year-old, &ldquo;This is a hugely positive step as we strive to build an inclusive game that we can all be proud of,&rdquo; the governing body tweeted. Jake's teammates&nbsp;at Blackpool are also backing the footballer and have promised to continue their support for the young star.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Kolkata Knight Riders' opener Ajinkya Rahane is set to leave the IPL 2022 bio-bubble due to a hamstring injury, as per reports.

Delhi Capitals kept their playoff hopes alive as they made it to the 4th spot on the points table with a thrilling win over Punjab Kings in IPL 2022. Marring Punjab’s chances, Delhi won their 7th game of the season by 17-runs at the Wankhede stadium.
Chasing 160, Punjab, though, got a decent start, but a terrible collapse turned out to be their major setback. Delhi spinners wreaked havoc on Mayank Agarwal’s team as they lost 3 wickets in the powerplay itself. Thereafter Jitesh Sharma waged a lone battle but failed to do much as wickets kept falling at the other end. In the following 6 overs, Delhi could only score 14 runs and lost 5 more wickets. Sharma’s 44 in 34 balls though ensured that Punjab did not lose by a huge margin. Shardul Thakur picked up a 4-wicket haul as Delhi restricted Punjab to 142/9 in 20 overs.
Earlier, electing to bowl first, Punjab began on a strong foot as their bowlers came down heavily on Delhi’s top order. Liam Livingstone and Arshdeep Singh bagged 3 wickets each as they limited DC innings to 159/7. After losing David Warner on the first ball of the innings to Livingstone, Marsh first added 51 runs with Sarfaraz Khan (32) and then went to build another crucial 47-run stand with Lalit Yadav who fell after scoring 24 in 21 balls. With the help of Marsh, who anchored the innings with a 63 in 48 balls, Delhi were able to post a respectable 160-run target.

"T20 is good for the game but not for ego", the former Australian all-rounder Andrew Symonds had once said after failing to defend 17 runs inaugural edition of the Indian Premier League against Shane Warne.
The demise of Symonds shocked the cricketing world which was still mourning the death of legendary Shane Warne.
Here are some of Symonds' best moments while playing the game he loved the most.
2003 World Cup vs Pakistan
Andrew Symonds filled in the boots of Michael Bevan and took Australia out of shambles in their 2003 World Cup opener against Pakistan. From 146-5 in 30th over, Australia went to score 310-8, all because of Symonds' 143 not out off 125 balls.
Sydney Test: 2008 vs India
Though the match was first marred by Umpiring controversy, Symonds displayed his tremendous temperament and scored 162 not out against India in the Sydney Test. This time, Symonds took Australia out from 134-6 in the first innings and scalped two crucial wickets in the second innings. But his prolific innings was marred by the monkey gate scandal as Symonds alleged Harbhajan Singh for using a racial slur against him.
117 no vs RR in 2008 ipl
Two months after the monkey gate scandal, Andrew Symonds emerged as the most expensive foreign buy in the inaugural edition of IPL. While representing now-defunct Deccan Charges, Symonds steamrolled the Warne's Rajasthan Royals' bowlers and slammed 116 off 53 balls. But he failed to take his team home as he was not able to defend 17 runs in the last over against Warne who tonked his Australian counterpart for a Four and two sixes.

It was&nbsp;Lorenzo Sonego's biggest win, as the 42nd ranked Italian entered the main draw after replacing Diego Schwartzman who pulled out due to an injury.&nbsp;The Serbian who was content enough, lost only his third match of the year in the Erste&nbsp;Bank open quarterfinals.

In their 2nd last league game against Sunrisers Hyderabad, Mumbai Indians’ ace pacer Jasprit Bumrah accomplished another feat.

The 28-year-old bowler reached this milestone in 206 T20 matches.
