Bubba Wallace wins Brickyard 400: Why the NASCAR victory in Indianapolis is historic

Bubba Wallace became the first Black driver to win on Indianapolis Motor Speedway's 2.5-mile oval on Sunday. The 31-year-old managed to go through a late rain delay, two overtimes, and fuel concerns to hold off Kyle Larson in the Brickyard 400. This was the third NASCAR Cup victory of Wallace's career was also his biggest. It snapped a 100-race winless streak that dated to 2022 at Kansas.

IND vs ENG 4th Test: 'A Test hundred is a Test hundred' — Shubman Gill defends Jadeja-Washington's refusal to shake hands early

Ravindra Jadeja celebrates his century with Washington Sundar during day five of the 4th Test. (Getty Images) NEW DELHI: India skipper Shubman Gill has backed Ravindra Jadeja and Washington Sundar's decision to delay the handshakes on Day 5 of the drawn fourth Test at Old Trafford, saying both batters deserved their centuries. The Test ended in a draw, but not before a brief flare-up between the Indian and English players over the decision to continue batting after England offered to end the match early. Go Beyond The Boundary with our YouTube channel. SUBSCRIBE NOW! Speaking at the post-match presentation, Gill said the mood in the dressing room felt like a win: 'The kind of position that we were in yesterday in the morning, it definitely feels like a win. Especially losing those two early wickets... the way we showed grit and determination, it was just very pleasing to watch.' Poll Do you think Ravindra Jadeja and Washington Sundar deserved to delay handshakes for their centuries? Yes, absolutely! No, they should have shaken hands. India were 0/2 chasing down a 311-run deficit but finished strong at 425/4, thanks to unbeaten centuries from Jadeja (107*) and Sundar (101*), who added a 203-run partnership. Gautam Gambhir fiery press conference: Slams critics, big update on Jasprit Bumrah, Karun vs Sai As for the last-hour drama, Gill gave a blunt explanation: 'I think both the batsmen batted brilliantly and were in their 90s. And a Test hundred is a Test hundred at the end of the day. Washington's first, and from the situation we were in, they deserved it.' His comments came after England captain Ben Stokes expressed frustration over India's refusal to shake hands despite being well past saving the Test. A visibly irritated Stokes even asked sarcastically, 'Do you want to score a hundred against Harry Brook?' — after bringing on the part-time bowler in protest. Yet Jadeja maintained composure, calmly replying, 'I can't do anything,' before launching Brook into the stands to bring up his hundred. Ben Stokes press conference: On handshake controversy, India fightback, his own fitness Gill praised both Jadeja and Sundar's composure: 'It's all about taking the wicket out of the equation. Day 5 wicket, every ball is an event. We just wanted to go ball by ball and take it deep. They did that perfectly.' The five-match series now heads into a decider at The Oval, with England leading 2-1. For real-time updates, scores, and highlights, follow our live coverage of the India vs England Test match here.

What is National Soccer Day, and why is it celebrated around the world?

Soccer means different things to different people. To some, it's a game played after school with friends. To others, it's the thrill of watching their team fight for a last-minute goal. However, one thing is universal: Soccer brings people together. That's exactly what National Soccer Day is about. Although not recognized as a global holiday, National Soccer Day is observed in many countries, with the US often marking it on July 28. It's not tied to a specific tournament or founding date. Instead, it's a reminder of just how deeply this sport runs through everyday life. History of soccer game You might think soccer began in England, but the truth is, people were kicking balls around centuries before that just in very different ways. Take ancient China, for example. They played something called cuju, which used a ball made of leather and feathers. It wasn't just for fun either. Soldiers used it for training, and even emperors were known to enjoy it. The game eventually found its way to Japan, where it turned into kemari, a gentler, more ceremonial version. Instead of trying to score goals, players would stand in a circle and keep the ball off the ground kind of like modern-day juggling. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like No annual fees for life UnionBank Credit Card Apply Now Undo Meanwhile, across the ocean, the Aztecs were playing a very different kind of ball game. Known as ollama, this one was intense, both physically and spiritually. The rubber ball (a material they were among the first to use) symbolized the sun, and matches weren't just games they were part of religious rituals. In some cases, the losing team's captain was even sacrificed. It's hard to imagine watching a match today with that kind of pressure. As for the game we now recognize as soccer, it started to take shape in England. In the beginning, things were pretty chaotic. People played in the streets, there were no standard rules, and things often got violent. There were two main styles, one resembling modern rugby, where players could use their hands and charge at each other, while the other focused more on kicking the ball. The violence got so out of hand that at one point, soccer was actually banned across the country. But bans don't last when people love something, and eventually, the game came back this time with structure. In 1863, clubs in London formed the first Football Association. That's when the official rules were written, and major decisions were made: no using hands, a standard size and weight for the ball, and a clear difference between soccer and rugby. Rugby kept the rougher play and hand contact. Soccer became about strategy, speed, and precision. From there, the sport took off. As the British traveled the world, they took soccer with them. What started in London's muddy fields eventually spread to every corner of the globe. And today, whether you call it soccer or football, its roots go deeper and wider than most people realize from emperors in ancient China to ritual games in Mesoamerica to the roaring stadiums of today. So, why do we celebrate it? Soccer doesn't ask much. You don't need expensive gear or fancy fields. A ball, a few people, and a bit of space are enough. For this reason, it has spread far and wide across cities, towns, and villages, rich and poor alike. Celebrating this day is about recognizing accessibility and what it gives back. Communities might mark the day with friendly matches. Schools host small games. Some wear jerseys to work or post about their favorite moments on social media. Others simply kick a ball around with their kids in the evening. For fans, it's a day to relive memories. The penalty shootouts that made them bite their nails. The underdog goals that made headlines. Or the first time they played on a field that wasn't just dirt and rocks. It's not just about victory. It's about passion, connection, and shared joy. Soccer has also taken on bigger roles. Women's teams are fighting for equal pay. Clubs speak out against racism and injustice. Fans organize food drives or community events around match days. The sport has evolved into something more than just ninety minutes on a pitch. It has become a platform for change, for unity, and for hope. And there's another reason to celebrate—it belongs to everyone. No matter where you're from, there's probably a version of soccer played near you. Even in places facing poverty or conflict, kids find ways to make goals out of sticks and balls out of rolled-up socks. The love for the game doesn't need much to survive. For many, the lessons soccer teaches matter as much as the game itself. Losing teaches resilience. Passing teaches trust. Being part of a team, even when you don't score, teaches humility. These are values that stick around long after the final whistle. So when National Soccer Day comes around, it isn't just about the professionals or those who made it big. It's for the dad who plays with his daughter in the park. The teen who watches every match on an old phone. The friends who haven't played in years but still argue over whose team is better. It's a celebration of a game that never really leaves you. No matter where life takes you, a ball rolling on a field still stirs something familiar. And maybe that's the real magic of soccer. It doesn't just connect players on the pitch. It connects people across languages, borders, and generations. So, whether you're playing, watching, or just remembering, National Soccer Day is a quiet reminder of how one simple game has touched billions of lives.
