Scary scene! Shubman Gill takes nasty blow to the head, Rishabh Pant's reaction goes viral
Shubman Gill NEW DELHI: Tension gripped the Indian camp when captain Shubman Gill was struck hard on the head while fielding at first slip during Day 3 of the second Test against England at Edgbaston in Birmingham on Friday. The incident occurred during Ravindra Jadeja's over, when Harry Brook unleashed a powerful drive off one of his deliveries. The ball flew off the bat with pace, giving Gill very little time to react — and struck him on top of the head. Go Beyond The Boundary with our YouTube channel. SUBSCRIBE NOW! Gill appeared to be in pain. He showed his head to Rishabh Pant and then signalled for the physio. The physio rushed out to assess him, provided some treatment, and thankfully, Gill looked better and resumed fielding shortly after. WATCH: Earlier in the match, Gill had been full of emotion after receiving a heartfelt message from his parents following his career-best 269. The 25-year-old made history by becoming the first Indian captain to score a double hundred in England, and the first Indian batter to hit a double ton in Tests outside Asia since Virat Kohli 's 200 in 2016. India vs England 2nd Test: Shubman Gill's 269, Ravindra Jadeja's class light up Edgbaston His monumental knock not only broke Kohli's record of 254* for the highest score by an Indian Test captain, but also surpassed Sachin Tendulkar's 241* as the highest by an Indian batter in a Test outside Asia. After the day's play, the BCCI shared a video in which Gill was seen listening to voice messages from his parents. The emotional moment clearly meant a lot to him. 'Means a lot coming from him,' Gill said. 'Growing up, I played all of my cricket for my dad. It was because of him I started playing cricket. He and my best friend, whom I practised with, are the only two people I care about and listen to when it comes to cricket. But he also said I missed my triple century.' Gill's knock helped India post a mammoth 587 — their highest Test total in England in 18 years.

Connor McDavid trade rumors heat up as 9-year old Canucks fan's bold wish goes viral amid Oilers uncertainty
Young Canucks fan's McDavid wish goes viral (Image via: Getty Images) Connor McDavid's future with the Edmonton Oilers is once again under the spotlight. With no contract extension in place and silence from the Oilers' front office, speculation around the NHL superstar's next move continues to build. Adding a surprising twist to the growing buzz, a 9-year-old Vancouver Canucks fan's bold wish has gone viral, capturing the imagination of hockey fans everywhere. Canucks fan's Connor McDavid wish goes viral amid Oilers contract silence and trade rumors The offseason has stirred plenty of Connor McDavid trade rumors, but none as charming as a recent social media post shared by NHL insider Dave Hall. On July 3, Hall revealed that his 9-year-old son had one big wish: to see McDavid suit up for the Vancouver Canucks. What started as a sweet father-son moment quickly caught traction online, largely due to the unusual backdrop of uncertainty coming out of Edmonton. Hall's son didn't stop with McDavid either. The young fan added Sidney Crosby, Alex Ovechkin, and Jack Hughes to his dream roster, creating an NHL superteam only possible in video games. But his wish comes at a time when the Oilers' silence on McDavid's extension has made even the most far-fetched ideas seem worth talking about. Oilers face questions about McDavid's long-term future Oilers GM Stan Bowman recently confirmed that the team hasn't yet begun contract talks with McDavid, despite the superstar entering the final stretch of his current deal. Bowman's comments—'we really haven't talked to him at all about his contract'—did little to calm nerves among fans or squash growing trade chatter across the league. Back-to-back Stanley Cup Final losses and a lack of roster upgrades may leave McDavid wondering if his championship hopes are better pursued elsewhere. Meanwhile, other fanbases like that of the Canucks are daring to dream, no matter how improbable it sounds.

From his dominant performances to community involvement, he's been more than just a franchise player. Still, with the Oilers showing little urgency, even loyal fans are starting to question how long he'll stay.

Vanessa Bryant is keeping Kobe family's love for Baseball intact Vanessa Bryant and daughters Natalia, Bianka, and Capri were at the Dodgers Stadium on July 3 for an exciting ballgame between the Chicago White Sox and the Los Angeles Dodgers.

And Vanessa and her daughters have been keeping this love for baseball alive, as they put on the Dodgers hat and jersey and attend the games whenever possible. Their latest visit was also pretty special for every Dodgers fan as well as the team, as the Dodgers pitcher Clayton Kershaw joined the 3,000 strikeout club. A veteran of the game who has been with this team since the beginning of his career, Kershaw recorded the 3000th MLB strikeout of his career to become one of 20 pitchers, and four left-handers to join this elite club. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch CFD với công nghệ và tốc độ tốt hơn IC Markets Đăng ký Undo Image via Instagram Vanessa Bryant took to her Instagram to post 5 different images and clips from the night.
