After personal best on return to action, Neeraj Chopra feels 90m javelin throw just round the corner

A day after recording his personal-best throw, just 70cm short of 90 metres, Neeraj Chopra feels he’s just one “good” throw away from breaching the mark. Returning to competition after a 10-month break, the Olympic gold medallist showed no signs of rust as he took home silver with a national record throw of 89.30cm at the Paavo Nurmi Games in Finland, in a quality field that included four of the year’s five best throwers, including Grenada’s Anderson Peters, Jakub Vadlejch of Czech Republic, Germany’s Julian Weber and Trinidad’s Keshorn Walcott. “Since 2018, I have been sensing that I can hit the 90m mark and always felt that throw would come soon.

Faster, Sharper, Better – the all new Bhuvneshwar Kumar is back with a bang

At the Indian Premier League 2022 auction, only four of the ten franchises bid for India’s premier swing bowler Bhuvneshwar Kumar. His old franchise Sunrisers Hyderabad, which hadn’t retained him ahead of the auction, was able to buy him back for Rs 4.2 crore, at less than half of his retention price of Rs 8.5 crore in 2018.

McCullum has England ‘running towards the danger’: Stuart Broad | Cricket News – Times of India

LONDON: Stuart Broad says England coach Brendon McCullum inspired the dramatic second Test victory against New Zealand by telling his team to "run towards the danger". McCullum has revitalised England in union with new captain Ben Stokes and the improvement generated by the fresh regime's positive attitude has been remarkable. England had failed to win any of their previous five Test series, winning just one match from 17 prior to the current New Zealand contest. But after beating the Test world champions by five wickets for a second successive match, England will head to Headingley next week looking to complete a clean sweep. Just a year ago, England, under the guidance of then coach Chris Silverwood, settled for a draw after refusing to take on a target of 273 in 75 overs against New ...

ALUR: Manoj Tiwary, veteran of many-a-fightback, in company of utility man Shahbaz Ahmed, kept Bengal alive as they reached 197 for five after a top-order collapse against Madhya Pradesh, on the second day of the Ranji Trophy semi-final. At stumps, Tiwary (84 batting, 182 balls) played his best knock of this season, while Shahbaz (72 batting, 149 balls) was equally defiant as they joined forces at a precarious 54 for five and added 143 runs for the unbroken sixth wicket. This was after a 64-run seventh wicket stand between centurion Himanshu Mantri (165, 372 balls) and Puneet Datey (33) took Madhya Pradesh to a more than respectable first inning score of 341. Mukesh Kumar (4/66) was Bengal's best bowler by a distance. While Bengal's entire hopes rest on Tiwary and Shahbaz but 144 runs o...

I might have normalised girls playing cricket on the streets: Mithali Raj on her legacy | Cricket News – Times of India

NEW DELHI: The feeling of being called a "former India captain" is yet to sink in as Mithali Raj hasn't exactly gone through an entire gamut of emotions after calling time on her 23-year illustrious career last week. Mithali knew her time had come after the 2022 World Cup in New Zealand but since she doesn't like to take big decisions in a jiffy, the 39-year-old waited for couple of months before announcing her retirement.
