Australia defeats West Indies at Cricket World Cup
- June 07, 2019
All-rounder Andre Russell struck in his first over when a thick edge from Usman Khawaja was taken by a brilliant one-handed catch by wicketkeeper Hope, before Glenn Maxwell was snared for a duck by Cottrell. The umpire gave it out immediately, and Gayle challenged it just as quickly, indicating he hadn't touched the ball to begin with. Take a bow Sheldon Cottrell, that was incredible! The job however was only half done as the pacer's momentum was taking him over the boundary. (more...)

Cops: Women vanish with Le'Veon Bell's jewelry worth $500K
- June 06, 2019
Police in Hollywood, Florida, say that Bell went to the gym on May 25, leaving two women behind in his home. The two sides tried again in vain to work out a deal and Pittsburgh was prepared to franchise him for a second straight season. That meant that by the time he took a few handoffs Tuesday at the Jets' facility in Florham Park, N.J., it had been a very long time since anyone had seen him on an National Football League practice field.

Katie Taylor set to get a statue in her honour
- June 06, 2019
The bout was scored 95-95, 96-94, 96-94 in favour of Taylor but may believed the outcome could have been very different. "It was a very, very close fight". "A few people had it her way, a few people had it my way - that's what makes a brilliant fight". The final round resembled something out of a Rocky movie as both fighters abandoned any semblance of defense to trade punches in one of the most exciting rounds women's boxing has ever seen.

Aaron Finch dismissed by Oshane Thomas as Australia lose first wicket
- June 06, 2019
Chris Gayle (VICE CAPTAIN), 4. I think it is going to be a good surface. Teams have totally changed so history doesn't matter much. Nobody is suggesting the current line-up is yet in that class but the fact they bowled Pakistan out cheaply without Kemar Roach and Shannon Gabriel shows that, once again, West Indies have an impressive stock of fast bowlers.

Blues in Boston Preparing for All Important Game 5 with Bruins
- June 06, 2019
The numbers back up that notion as the Blues created more expected goals (1.66 to 1.16), generated more shot attempts (49 to 30) and took more shots from the slot (18 to 9) than the Bruins did at 5-on-5. When we've been at our game we've used our speed and skill on the forecheck, created turnovers and got inside as well. How do we get it done? How are you going to fix that? They've been ineffective [on the power play]. (more...)
