In a run-feast in Rawalpindi, England beat Pakistan by 74 runs to win the first Test and take a 1-0 lead in the three-match series. On Day 5, all three results were possible but Ben Stokes &amp; Co. were rewarded for their brave and attacking approach as they beat Babar Azam &amp; Co. in the&nbsp;riveting final&nbsp;moments of the contest.

Opting to bat first, England rode on centuries from Zak Crawley, Ben Duckett, OIlie Pope and Harry Brooks to be dismissed for 657 (in 101 overs) in their first innings. In reply, Pakistan also made a mammoth 579, courtesy of hundreds from Imam-ul-Haq, Abdullah Shafique and Babar, but gave a vital 78-run lead to the visitors who smashed 264/7 in 35.5 overs and declared; setting up a challenging 343-run target.

On the final day, Pakistan were 259 for 5 are seemed like cruising towards the total before James Anderson-Ollie Robinson's four wickets each and Jack Leach chipped in with the last wicket to take their side home; dismissing Pakistan for 268. With this defeat, Pakistan have dented their chances of qualifying for the second&nbsp;ICC World Test Championship final.

Here's how Pakistan's loss is India's gain

Babar &amp; Co. aren't out of contention yet. They are placed&nbsp;fifth in the table, however,&nbsp;wins for Australia or India in their respective upcoming Test series will end Pakistan's chances of entering the final.&nbsp;

On the other hand, if Rohit Sharma's India&nbsp;clean sweep Bangladesh, they can now afford to lose at least one of their upcoming four Tests versus Pat Cummins-led Australia at home, early next year, in a bid to qualify. For Australia, if they whitewash West Indies on home soil and beat South Africa in two out of the upcoming three Tests, Down Under, they would also make it&nbsp;to the&nbsp;summit clash.

After the loss, Babar said at the post-match presentation, "We were not upto the mark. Had a golden chance in the second innings, but session by session we lost wickets. Our bowling group is young. Unfortunately Haris injured himself in the first innings. All credit to the bowlers who bowled well and tried without Haris. We try to stick to our plans. Difficult when opponent goes at 7 an over. We had an opportunity in the second innings. But we didn't get partnerships in the end. Lot of positives. Our batting performed very well. Bowling also very well."

Pakistan will also host New Zealand after the England series. However, they have spoiled their chances of going ahead with a loss in the England series opener.

EXPLAINED: How Pakistan's 74-run loss vs England is a gain for India with WTC final ticket at stake

England and Pakistan were involved in a high-scoring Rawalpindi Test, which made heads turn for its poor surface on offer. Ben Stokes &amp; Co., who had over a majority of players down with a stomach bug prior to the game's commencement, beat Babar Azam-led Pakistan by 74 runs to earn a memorable win in Asian conditions and go 1-0 up in the three-match series on Pakistani soil.

Opting to bat first, Stokes-led Three Lions didn't put a foot wrong as they rode on centuries from Zak Crawley, Ben Duckett, Ollie Pope and Harry Brooks to post a mammoth 657 all-out in their first essay. In reply, Pakistan also made merry of the placid pitch and rode on centuries from Imam-ul-Haq,&nbsp;Abdullah Shafique and captain Babar to be dismissed for 579; conceding a vital 78-run lead to the visitors.

England's bazball approach continued in their second innings as they scored at over 7 RPO to declare at 264-7; setting a challenging 343-run target for the hosts in the last four sessions. On Day 5, all three results were possible and it seemed like Pakistan's middle-order would take them towards the target before James Anderson and Ollie Robinson's four-fers each took their side to a fitting 74-run win. Here's the updated ICC World Test Championship points table after the Rawalpindi tie:

At the post-match presentation, Stokes said, "Some of the things we can't plan for is what happened to the squad before the Test. Seems a long time ago when we were running around to find players for the Test. Will Jacks getting the message three minutes before toss, and Pope getting the gloves. We've played 8-9 matches with myself and Brendon in charge. One thing we try to do is focus on ourselves and not the opposition. We know we're a very exciting team. Was a great batting surface, so it was an opportunity for our batting group. Having the lads truck in like they did today was amazing. Really special group of players. We wanted to come here to Pakistan and carry on with our mantra of exciting cricket. I've got no interest in trying to play for a draw, the dressing room has no interest in playing for a draw. Felt on this kind of wicket, almost had to entice the batsmen to play an attacking shot. Today we were fortunate to get the ball reverse-swinging. James Anderson and Ollie Robinson were fantastic today. We won probably about 8 minutes before we would've come off. This is probably up there as one of England's greatest away wins."

The second and penultimate Test begins on December 09 in Multan.

Updated ICC World Test Championship points table after England beat Pakistan in Rawalpindi

India is not just about cricket. Sure, the game remains a top choice for many but a plethora of non-cricket stalwarts have popularised various other sports. Talking about tennis, the game's rise has been spectacular. Of course, the likes of Vijay Amritraj, Jaideep Mukherjee, Leander Paes, and Mahesh Bhupathi were the pioneers of the game, Sania Mirza, Rohan Bopanna, Ramesh Ramanathan, Sumit Nagal, Somdevdev Burman, etc., have given it&nbsp;an extra mileage in the country.

Riya Bhatia is another tennis sensation&nbsp;on the rise. The 25-year-old is making giant strides and has been India's new No. 2 ranked player for quite some time. In addition, she clinched two national titles --&nbsp;hardcourt and grass-court national championships in 2016. Recently, she was&nbsp;seen playing for the Pro Veri Supersmashers&nbsp;in the ongoing fourth season&nbsp;of the Pro Tennis League (PTL) -- a platform for bidding young stars to hone their skills and showcase their credentials -- and ahead of it, WION's Aditya Sahay&nbsp;had an exclusive interview&nbsp;with her.&nbsp;During the interaction,&nbsp;she shed light on her game style,&nbsp;challenges of playing on different surfaces and named her favourites from the big league of players.

How is Pro Tennis League honing the skills of young players?

I would definitely say it is helping the sport in India. Wish I had something like this when I was a junior. We can mentor juniors and teach them how to play certain points. It's only through such leagues that they can connect with us and vice versa. With Indian people coming and watching us, it's a new format so it's a fun thing for all involved.&nbsp;

How is it for Riya to play&nbsp;on different surfaces?

I'm an all-round player. Changing surfaces isn't a big issue for me. I enjoy playing on all. My favourite is clay but I've been performing well on hard courts. Grass is something close to my heart and I played my best game there at the WTA in Germany and won the national grasscourt. My game is more of an all-round player where I can change my game style according to the court and conditions needed. Certainly, there are many things I've been working on and these leagues (such as the PTL) are a good way to prepare for big tournaments. You get into a zone by playing such leagues and PTL is definitely helpful.

Your big goals going ahead?

I've been No. 2 in India for a very long time. My highest ranking in singles was 300 in internationals and my goal is to go higher than that. To represent India in the Olympics and win a medal. I also want to play some Grand Slams and win big matches over there.&nbsp;

Whose your favourites among the current&nbsp;league of players?

I don't want to copy but there is a lot to learn from great players. I've always looked up to Roger Federer.&nbsp;He is always calm. Lots to imbibe from him on how he thinks,&nbsp;moves on the court and creates magic. From women, I absolutely love Ashleigh Barty. I feel my game style is close to hers. She's very aggressive. At the moment, I like to watch a lot of matches of Novak Djokovic and Iga Swiatek.

While the Pro Veri Supersmashers have had a forgettable run in the ongoing PTL, Riya's career has surely taken off with a lot of promise.

On Sunday, defending champions France defeated Poland 3-1, in the Round of 16 clash, to progress ahead in the FIFA World Cup in Qatar.&nbsp;Olivier Giroud scored the opening goal for the French line-up, before the second-half, whereas Kylian Mbappe struck twice in the 74th minute and during the extra time to kill the game before Polish star Robert Lewandowski scored prior to his side's inevitable defeat.&nbsp;

With this win, France march ahead in the Qatar 2022 and remain on course to become the first side to successfully defend their World Cup since Brazil in 1962. They next face Harry Kane-led England in the quarter-finals, on December 11, which is expected to be a mouth-watering clash. On the other hand, it was the end of Poland's run in the ongoing World Cup, in the Middle East, with heartbreak for its players and fans worldwide. After the match, a video went viral where Polish goalkeeper&nbsp;Wojciech Szczesny can be seen consoling his son Liam. Here's the clip:

After the disappointment endured in the T20 World Cup, Team India has now started preparations for the 2023 ODI World Cup. After the T20 WC, regular captain Rohit Sharma missed the New Zealand tour whereas head coach Rahul Dravid was also rested. Thus, Shikhar Dhawan led in the ODIs whereas Hardik Pandya took charge of the T20I side.

Since the T20 WC debacle, many have spoken about the need for split captaincy with too much cricket being played. Moreover, there have been talks about having different coaches for different formats. England already have Brendon McCullum as their Test coach whereas&nbsp;Matthew Mott serves as the white-ball coach. In this regard, former Indian cricketer Hemang Badani feels such a change is surely on the cards in the Indian team.

Badani told Times Now, "I am of the opinion that both will happen in time for sure and it should happen. The skillset that a coach is required to have for different formats is not the same. The way you handle a T20 side to the way you handle and prepare for an ODI, or for Test format, is a lot different. I am all for that to happen in the future. Be it captaincy, be it coaching."

Dravid took over as the Indian team head coach after Ravi Shastri post the 2021 T20 WC in the UAE. Under Rohit and him, India have been pretty average. While they have dominated at home, beating New Zealand, West Indies, Sri Lanka, Australia and South Africa, they failed to win a Test series in SA, beat England in a one-off Test in Edgbaston, failed to qualify for the Asia Cup final and bowed out of the T20 WC semi-finals.&nbsp;

Split captaincy, split coaching will happen for Team India, predicts former Indian cricketer

Former&nbsp;Formula&nbsp;One&nbsp;driver Patrick Tambay, the Frenchman who replaced Gilles Villeneuve at Ferrari after the Canadian great's fatal accident in 1982, died on Sunday at the age of 73, his family said. Tambay had been suffering from Parkinson's disease for some years. Winner of two races with Ferrari, the 1982 German Grand Prix and 1983 San Marino Grand Prix, Tambay had five career pole positions and finished fourth in the 1983 world championship.

He started 114 championship Grand Prix in a career full of race retirements, competing also for McLaren in 1978 and 1979 after a debut in 1977 with Teddy Yip's Hong Kong-owned Theodore Racing team.

Tambay retired in 1986 after two years at Renault and a final season with Haas Lola. "We are all truly saddened by the news of the passing of Patrick Tambay. He was&nbsp;one&nbsp;of the true stars of the 80s winning two races with the Scuderia and contributing to winning the manufacturers’ titles in 1982 and 1983," Ferrari said.

Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, KL Rahul and the likes returned for Team India as they faced Bangladesh in the three-match ODI series opener on Sunday (December 04) in Dhaka. Being asked to bat first, India were soon reduced to 49 for 3 and only managed a paltry 186 all-out in 41.2 overs with only vice-captain Rahul managing a sedate 73 (70).&nbsp;

Shakib Al Hasan accounted for 5 for 36 but the Bangla Tigers were made to sweat hard for their runs in the second innings. They were 95 for 3 and 128 for 4 but suddenly got reduced to 136 for 9 before an unbeaten 51-run tenth wicket stand with Player-of-the-Match Mehedi Hasan (38&nbsp;not out and 1/43) and Mustafizur Rahman (11-ball 10*)&nbsp;took&nbsp;their side home by one wicket. After going down 1-0 in the series, former stumper and ex-selector Saba Karim&nbsp;lashed out at India and issued a warning. He feels an entire restructuring is needed in white-ball formats.

Speaking on Sony Sports after India's defeat, Karim said, "It is now time for us to pay attention to our white-ball cricket. The first thing is you will have to decide that our white-ball cricket has some issues which need to be resolved and for that, I feel you need an entire restructuring."

Karim opined, "This is being discussed for many days, if you have agreed that there is a problem, how will you address it? Do we need to bring a change in our game plan or our brand of cricket? Do we need to play with a different template? If we have to play like that, do we have the players like that or not?."

The former keeper-batter further pointed out, "If you feel you have the players like that, are we creating an environment like that so that they can bat freely, if we have decided that we have to bat aggressively. I feel we are still in doubt what path we need to take and on top of that if we get a challenging wicket like today, we get stuck even more."

"You will have to create different profiles for players and empower them that if you have to play aggressive cricket, this has to be your approach, then you cannot go the other way, whichever way the game might be going. You will have to continue to bat dominantly if you have decided that is going to be your template," Karim added.

India will aim for a series-levelling win in the second and penultimate ODI versus the Bangla Tigers, which will be held on Wednesday (December 07) at the same venue in Dhaka.

Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, KL Rahul and the likes returned for Team India as they faced Bangladesh in the three-match ODI series opener on Sunday (December 04) in Dhaka.

Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, KL Rahul and the likes returned for Team India as they faced Bangladesh in the three-match ODI series opener on Sunday (December 04) in Dhaka. Being asked to bat first, India were soon reduced to 49 for 3 and only managed a paltry 186 all-out in 41.2 overs with only vice-captain Rahul managing a sedate 73 (70). Shakib Al Hasan accounted for 5 for 36 but the Bangla Tigers were made to sweat hard for their runs in the second innings. They were 95 for 3 and 128 for 4 but suddenly got reduced to 136 for 9 before an unbeaten 51-run tenth wicket stand with Player-of-the-Match Mehedi Hasan (38 not out and 1/43) and Mustafizur Rahman (11-ball 10*) took their side home by one wicket.

'You need an entire restructuring': Former selector issues warning to Team India after 1st ODI loss

There has been plenty of action and drama in the ongoing FIFA World Cup 2022 edition. The tournament started on November 20 and has been living up to expectations so far. The Round of 32 will be over on Friday (December 02) as the focus now shifts to the Round of 16. Thus, the tournament is set to get more competitive and will throw in more surprises for the football fans, worldwide, in the next round.&nbsp;

Talking about the last 16 round, pre-tournament favourites such as Brazil, Argentina, England, Croatia, Portugal have all qualified whereas some big teams such as last edition's semi-finalists Belgium and 2014 champions Germany have bowed out of the competition in the group stage itself. Teams such as Japan and Morocco have topped their respective groups whereas Australia also got through the R-16 for the second time in their history, beating Denmark.

FIFA World Cup 2022, Round of 16: From qualified teams, schedule to live telecast - All you need to know

Opting to bat first, England had a blast on the opening day of the Rawalpindi Test versus hosts Pakistan on Thursday (December 01). Ben Stokes-led English line-up went to stumps at 506-4, riding on centuries from openers Zak Crawley and Ben Duckett,&nbsp;Ollie Pope and Harry Brooks, and created a world record of scoring most runs by a team on Day 1 of a Test.

Former English captain Joe Root didn't make the most of the batting-friendly wicket, in Rawalpindi, and was dismissed for 23. Nonetheless, the right-hander&nbsp;achieved a new world record by upstaging arch-rival Virat Kohli. By virtue of his knock, Root has now become the leading run-scorer of all time in competitions comprising&nbsp;five&nbsp;or more teams,&nbsp;such as the ICC World Test Championship, T20 World Cup, ODI World Cup, and ICC Champions Trophy.

The 31-year-old Root has 5,121 runs, at&nbsp;52.25, along with 15 centuries and 22 half-centuries&nbsp;in 77 matches. On the other hand, the Indian star batter Kohli's tally reads&nbsp;5,107 runs in 114 games, averaging an impressive&nbsp;51.58 with&nbsp;six hundreds and as many as 40 half-centuries in such multi-nation competitions (with 5 or more teams).

Root&nbsp;will like to add more runs to his overall tally in the second innings of the first Test versus Pakistan. The visitors are cruising towards the 600-run mark, at the time of publishing this report, and have put the Babar Azam-led Pakistan on the back foot in the series opener.

Joe Root upstages Virat Kohli to achieve new world record during opening day of Pakistan-England Test

England created history on the opening day of the Rawalpindi Test versus hosts Babar Azam-led Pakistan. After opting to bat first, on a flat surface, Ben Stokes-led Three Lions didn't do anything wrong on Day 1 to go to stumps at 506 for 4. Thus, England has created a world record for scoring the most runs by a team on Day 1 of a Test. In 1910, Australia had ended the Sydney Test's opening day's play at 494-6 versus South Africa. Thus, their arch-rivals in England have surpassed them to break the record after 112&nbsp;long years.&nbsp;

Coming out to bat, openers Zak Crawley and Ben Duckett made merry of the batting conditions versus the Shaheen Afridi-less bowling attack. England reached 174 for no loss at the lunch break, moving past India's 158/0 (27 overs) to have the most runs by a team in the first session. Crawley scored a 111-ball 122, Duckett departed for a well-made 107 whereas keeper-batter Ollie Pope scored a hundred (108) before Harry Brooks remained unbeaten on 101. Captain Stokes also joined the party and remains unbeaten on a 15-ball 34, laced with 6 fours and a six, as the visitors piled on the miseries versus Pakistan. Thus, England became the first-ever side to hit 500 runs on the opening day of a Test match.&nbsp;

The day saw as many as 73 fours and three sixes being scored by the English batters as Pakistani bowlers had no answers to their onslaught. While England's bazball approach has been hailed by many on social media platforms, many also slammed the dead wicket at Rawalpindi with bowlers having no say throughout the day.&nbsp;

Day Two will bring in a new challenge for Pakistan as they have a herculean task to stop England from running away from the game. Anything over 650 looks certain as of now unless a collapse takes place. In reply, Pakistani batters will have to bat very well and come close to England's first-innings score if they wish to stay alive in the game.

Rawalpindi Test: England create history! Ben Stokes & Co. become first team to hit most runs on Day 1

England dominated proceedings on Day 1 of the first Test versus hosts Pakistan in the Rawalpindi Test on Thursday (December 01). After there were reports suggesting that the series opener will be postponed by a day or two, with over a dozen English players unwell due to a stomach bug, the Rawalpindi Test started as per schedule.

Opting to bat first, Ben Stokes &amp; Co. rode on centuries from opener Zak Crawley, Ben Duckett, Ollie Pope and Harry Brooks to take England to a mammoth 506-4 at stumps on Day 1; highest score by a team on the opening day of a Test. After this, Rawalpindi Express Shoaib Akhtar shared a video, reacting on England's batting onslaught on a pitch suitable for batters.

"Shukr hai abhi England team ki tabiyat kharab thi, jo kal report aa rhi thi, England ki team ki tabiyat theek nahi hai. Jab tabiyat theek nahi hai tab 500 maar diye, agar theek hote to bahut bura haal krte&nbsp;(Thank god, England aren't well, as per the report that came in last evening. When they are unwell, they scored 500. They would have thrashed us if they were fit and fine)." Here's the video:

Further, Akhtar lauded England's Test coach and former New Zealand captain Brendon McCullum for his approach of wanting his side to score at a run a ball. "Inke jo coach hai Brendon McCullum, vo ye believe ni krta ki Test matches aise khele jaye ruk ruk k. Vo believe krta hai run a ball khele jaye.

On Day 2, England posted a mammoth 657 all-out courtesy of Harry Brooks' 116-ball 153. In reply, Pakistan openers have started strongly and have crossed the 100-run mark.

'They scored 500 when...': Shoaib Akhtar reacts to England's batting onslaught on Day 1 of Rawalpindi Test

Fast-bowling all-rounder and T20 stalwart Dwayne Bravo on Friday ended his IPL playing career and signed up with four-time IPL champions Chennai Super Kings, a team he represented from 2011-15 and 2018-22, as their bowling coach ahead of IPL 2023. 
 
"I`m looking forward to this new journey because it`s something I see myself doing after my playing days are&nbsp;fully over. I enjoy working with bowlers and it`s a role I`m excited about. From player to coach, I don`t think I have to adjust much because while I`m playing, I always work with bowlers and try to come up with plans and ideas on how to have that one step ahead of the batsmen."

"The only difference is I will no longer be standing at mid-on or mid-off! I never thought I would be the leading wicket-taker in the history of IPL. But I`m just happy to be a part of IPL history!" said Bravo in an official statement. 
 
Bravo had played in the tournament since its inception in 2008. He ends his IPL playing career as the leading wicket-taker of the competition with 183 scalps from 161 matches, averaging 23.82 and at an economy rate of 8.38. 
 
He has also scored 1560 runs at a strike rate of 129.57, playing key parts in many victories for the Super Kings with his hard-hitting batting. Bravo will be stepping in as Chennai`s bowling coach with Lakshmipathy Balaji is taking a break for one year due to personal commitments. Balaji, the former India pacer, will be available for the Super Kings Academy.

"Congratulations to Dwayne Bravo on a tremendous career in the IPL. He has been a crucial member of the Super Kings family for more than a decade and we are excited to continue the association. Bravo`s vast experience will be of immense value to our players and support staff. We are confident that our bowling group will thrive under his guidance," said K.S Viswanathan, Chennai Super Kings CEO. 
 
Bravo has been an integral part of the Chennai Super Kings since 2011. He was a part of Chennai Super Kings` IPL victories in 2011, 2018 and 2021 and the Champions League T20 victory in 2014. He was also the first player to win the Purple Cap for most wickets in an IPL season twice (2013 and 2015). Overall, he played 144 matches for Super Kings, picking up 168 wickets and scoring 1004 runs.
