India's Rishabh Pant injures foot and retires hurt in 4th Test against England

Al Arabiya4 days ago
India's Rishabh Pant retired hurt with an injured foot on the opening day of the fourth test against England on Wednesday. Pant was on 37 at Old Trafford when an attempted reverse sweep off Chris Woakes saw the ball deflect onto his right ankle and foot. England unsuccessfully appealed for lbw, but Pant was left in pain on the field and required treatment before leaving on a cart. Closeups of his foot showed swelling.
Pant was replaced by Ravindra Jadeja with India on 212-3. Pant was building a strong partnership with Sai Sudharsan as India recovered after losing three wickets in the second session before tea. India's opening partnership of KL Rahul and Jaiswal frustrated the hosts after being put in to bat first by reaching 78-0 at lunch. England found success after lunch with spinner Liam Dawson claiming his first test wicket in eight years after making his comeback for the national team.

Padraig Harrington wins Senior British Open for his second senior major title this year

Padraig Harrington was so focused on his game that he didn't notice a leaderboard or see Rory McIlroy walking in the gallery Sunday at the Senior British Open. He closed with a 3-under 67 to win his second senior major of the year. Staked to a two-shot lead, Harrington made eagle on the first hole on the Old Course at Sunningdale, and no one got closer than two shots the rest of the way as he became the fifth player with a Senior British Open and a British Open title. He won by three shots over Thomas Bjorn (67) and Justin Leonard (68). 'I'm thrilled to have won but very satisfied that I've won a Senior Open with my two Opens,' Harrington said. 'The fact that only five people have ever done it is quite special. I'm quite proud that I've managed to survive this long in the game.' He joined Darren Clarke, Tom Watson, Gary Player, and Bob Charles as players to have won the British Open and the senior version. McIlroy walked around for a bit on the London-area course, though it wasn't much of a show. Harrington seized control late in the third round and never gave anyone much of a chance. Bjorn made a late charge to get within two shots, but that ended with a bogey on the 16th. 'The only time I saw a leaderboard was on 18,' said Harrington, who said he asked his caddie for an update on the 17th hole. 'Was fully focused on what I was doing.' The Irishman was surprised to hear McIlroy, who is building a home in London, was at Sunningdale for the final round. 'I didn't see him out there. Was he out there?' Harrington said. 'I had the head down all day. I never saw anybody. I had no idea.' Harrington now has 11 titles on the PGA Tour Champions, and he has won multiple times each of the last four seasons. He won the US Senior Open last month at The Broadmoor. And he nearly won the Senior PGA Championship at Congressional until a late two-shot swing gave the title to Angel Cabrera.

England beat Spain on penalties in Women's Euro 2025 final

BASEL: England beat Spain 3-1 on penalties to win the Women's Euro 2025 and retain their title after Sunday's final had finished 1-1 at the end of extra time. Chloe Kelly scored the decisive kick in a shoot-out which saw three Spain players, including reigning Ballon d'Or Aitana Bonmati, all fail to convert. Mariona Caldentey had earlier headed Spain — who beat England 1-0 in the 2023 Women's World Cup final — into the lead at St. Jakob-Park in Basel, but Alessia Russo equalized early in the second half.

Injured Rishabh pant will miss india's fifth test vs. england

India's Rishabh Pant has been ruled out of the final test against England with a foot fracture. India coach Gautam Gambhir confirmed Pant's injury for the first time after the visitors salvaged a draw in the fourth test at Old Trafford on Sunday. Pant retired hurt on day one when taken off the field on a cart with his foot badly swollen, but he returned limping on day 2 to reach a half century. 'It's been declared that he's out of the series, and one thing I want to say is that the character and the foundation of this team will be built on something Rishabh did for the team and for the country as well,' Gambhir said. 'Any amount of praise is not enough for him, especially batting with a broken foot. I think the generations to come forward will talk about it, and the generations coming forward should talk about it.' Pant was injured when attempting a reverse sweep off Chris Woakes, and the ball deflected onto his right ankle and foot. India did not confirm at the time the extent of the injury, but he was replaced as wicket-keeper by Dhruv Jurel for the remainder of the match. He wasn't required to bat in India's second innings, with the visitors earning a draw in Manchester after Shubman Gill, Ravindra Jadeja, and Washington Sundar (101 not out) all reached centuries on the final day. England leads the series 2-1 going into the final test at the Oval next week.
