The 37-year-old Serbian also withdrew from the Paris Masters, which was won by world number two Alexander Zverev on Sunday.

Djokovic, who won his first Olympic gold medal at the Paris Games in August, won last year's ATP Finals title by defeating twice major winner Jannik Sinner in the final.

"I was really looking forward to being there, but due to ongoing injury, I won't be playing next week," Djokovic posted on his Instagram Story.

Novak Djokovic withdraws from ATP Finals due to injury

The Afro-Asia Cup could be back on the ICC calendar after the Africa Cricket Association (ACA) took formal&nbsp;steps for the revival of the tournament, according to a report on Tuesday (Nov. 5). The Afro-Asia Cup has not been played since 2007 after it was revoked from the Future Tour Program (FTP) of the International Cricket Council (ICC). It is learned that the ACA set up a six-member interim committee to restructure the ACA and increase the number of competitive opportunities.

<h2>Afro-Asia Cup set for revival</h2>

"The Afro-Asia Cup, apart from the cricket, brings the much-needed financial input to the organisation, and the appetite is huge from both ends," Tavengwa Mukuhlani, interim chair of the ACA, who is also the Zimbabwe Cricket Chair, said at a press conference.

"We have had conversations with our counterparts within the Asia Cricket Council, and obviously our African contingents, they want the Afro-Asia Cup to be revived."

<h2>What is the Afro-Asia Cup?</h2>

In 2005, ACA and ACC came together with a joint venture contesting an ODI series between Africa’s best players and Asia’s best players. In 2005, a three-match ODI series took place between Africa XI vs Asia XI in South Africa, aiming to promote talent and bring the best players together. Players from Pakistan, Sri Lanka, and India were the main feature of the Asia XI, while the Africa XI was mostly of the South African side, also consisting of players from Zimbabwe and Kenya.

The inaugural edition ended 1-1 with the final match getting washed out, while in 2007, Asia XI beat Africa XI 3-0 in a clean sweep. The tournament was set to take place in 2009, however, a congested fixture list and postponement of the 2009 Champions Trophy saw the tournament get called off.

While no date has been finalised for the relaunch of the Afro-Asia Cup, it is expected that it could return only after the World Test Championship (WTC) final in June 2025 as the cricketing calendar is congested.

The Indian Olympic Association (IOA) has officially submitted its bid to host the 2036 Olympics on Tuesday (Nov 5) as the nation tries to get its name on the global sports map. The bid also includes intent to host the 2036 Paralympics.&nbsp;The IOA submitted a Letter of Intent to the International Olympic Committee's (IOC) Future Host Commission on October 1. While the bidding process is yet to start, more than 10 cities have shown interest in hosting the 2036 Olympics.

<h2>India submits bid to host Olympics</h2>

"This monumental opportunity could bring substantial benefits, fostering economic growth, social progress, and youth empowerment across the country," a source told India Today.

It has not been a hidden secret that India intends to host the 2036 Olympic Games, as the IOA has been preparing for the bid for some time. In recent years, India’s bid was strengthened having hosted the International Olympic Committee (IOC) general meeting headed by Thomas Bach. India also has a strong representation on the panel, further helping its bid to host the Olympics in 2036.

As things stand, Los Angeles in the United States will host the 2028 Summer Olympics, while Brisbane in Australia will host the 2032 Games. The IOC’s rules state that no continent can host back-to-back summer Olympics, paving the way for an Asian nation to host the Games in 2036.

Asia has hosted the Summer Games four times, including the 1964 Tokyo, 1988 Seoul, 2008 Beijing, and 2020 Tokyo Olympics. If successful with the bid, India could become the first nation from South Asia to host the Summer Olympics.

"India is preparing to host the 2036 Olympics. In this regard, the input from athletes who have played in previous Olympics is significant. You all must have observed and experienced many things. We want to document this and share it with the government so that we don't miss out on any small details in the preparation for 2036," PM Narendra Modi had earlier stated.

Harry Kane scored twice and set up another as Bayern Munich moved three points clear at the top of the German Bundesliga with a 3-0 home win over Union Berlin on Saturday.&nbsp;

The England captain put Bayern ahead from the spot after 15 minutes after Union's Benedict Hollerbach brought down Michael Olise on the edge of the box.&nbsp;

Kane turned provider just before half-time, tapping the ball into Kingsley Coman's path, the France forward blasting in over Union goalkeeper Frederik Ronnow.&nbsp;

Kane added another after 51 minutes, eagerly getting to a loose ball inches ahead of teammate Jamal Musiala to complete his brace.

Despite two consecutive Champions League losses at Aston Villa and Barcelona, Bayern have now scored 16 without conceding in their past four games against German opposition.&nbsp;

"There's still a long way to go, but we've got the right mentality and the right attitude," Kane told Sky.

"If we keep going like this, everything will be OK -- we're in good shape."&nbsp;

Having needed a win to avoid relegation on the final match day last season, Union now sit sixth and captain Christopher Trimmel told Sky "we can live with it -- Bayern were the favourites and have unbelievable quality."

RB Leipzig can go back level at the top later on Saturday with a win when they travel to struggling Borussia Dortmund. &nbsp;

Kane's double took him past his main rival in this season's goalscoring battle, Omar Marmoush, who scored one and assisted two more in Eintracht Frankfurt's 7-2 demolition of hapless Bochum.&nbsp;

Hugo Ekitike scored a brace while Marmoush, Ansgar Knauff, Nathaniel Brown, Mahmoud Dahoud and Can Uzun all got on the scoresheet in the rout.&nbsp;

Marmoush now has 10 goals to Kane's 11 this season, but the Egyptian's six assists -- the best in the league -- are one more than the England captain's five.

Frankfurt leapfrogged champions Bayer Leverkusen into third place, six points behind leaders Bayern.

Bochum scored goals in each half through Dani de Wit and Philipp Hofmann but were thoroughly outclassed.

Bochum now have just one point from nine games to sit stranded at the bottom of the table after both promoted sides St Pauli and Holstein Kiel won on Saturday.&nbsp;

Kiel beat Heidenheim 1-0 at home thanks to a goal from Patrick Erras, for their first win in the top division, to go three points clear of Bochum.&nbsp;

Goals from Oladapo Afolayan and Andreas Albers took St Pauli to a 2-0 win at Hoffenheim, drawing them level with their opponents on eight points just above the direct relegation zone.&nbsp;

Elsewhere, Wolfsburg drew 1-1 at home with Augsburg.&nbsp;

Manchester City suffered their first Premier League loss since December as Bournemouth stunned the champions, while Arsenal were rocked by Newcastle and Liverpool seized top spot on Saturday.

City were unbeaten in their previous 32 league games dating back to a defeat at Aston Villa last year.

But Pep Guardiola's second-placed side saw that streak came to an unexpected end in a 2-1 loss on England's south coast.&nbsp;

The Cherries had never beaten City in their 21 previous meetings, losing 19 of those matches, yet Andoni Iraola's team sprang a huge upset to derail the champions' push for a fifth successive title.

Bournemouth recently damaged Arsenal's title hopes with a 2-0 win at the Vitality Stadium and they inflicted pain on City as well.

Guardiola had claimed City faced an injury "emergency" after they suffered fitness problems in Wednesday's League Cup defeat at Tottenham.

But Manuel Akanji, Kyle Walker and Josko Gvardiol all started against Bournemouth after injury doubts, with Kevin De Bruyne, Savinho and Jeremy Doku fit enough to be named among the substitutes.

Exhausted or not, City were rocked in the ninth minute when Bournemouth winger Antoine Semenyo drilled Milos Kerkez's cross past Ederson from inside the area.

Guardiola's men were unable to muster a response to that blow and Evanilson doubled Bournemouth's lead in the 64th minute with a composed finish from Kerkez's cross.

Gvardiol's header reduced the deficit in the 82nd minute, but it was too late to save City from a second defeat in four days.

Newcastle put a huge dent in fourth-placed Arsenal's title aspirations with a 1-0 win at St James' Park.

Alexander Isak netted in the 12th minute, heading home Anthony Gordon's pinpoint cross.

Injury-hit Arsenal struggled to get out of first gear and produced just one shot on target in the entire game.

Mikel Arteta's team, runners-up to City for the past two years, have taken just one point from their last three games as their push for a first title since 2004 was derailed by a second league defeat this term.

"Today we weren't our best version. It's about how you react to that. We're not going to find the right words or answers to describe how we feel," said Arteta, whose side are seven points adrift of first place.

<h2>Liverpool's late power surge</h2>

At Anfield, Liverpool were in danger of a surprise loss of their own before regrouping to take advantage of their rivals' stumbles with a 2-1 win over Brighton.

Ferdi Kadioglu gave Brighton the lead in the 14th minute with a fierce strike that cannoned in off the post after Danny Welbeck flicked on Kaoru Mitoma's cross.

But Liverpool had beaten Brighton in the League Cup last 16 in midweek and they repeated the trick thanks to a late revival.

Cody Gakpo bagged the equaliser in the 70th minute with a cross that looped straight into the net.

Two minutes later, Mohamed Salah put Liverpool ahead, the Egypt forward curling a fine finish into the top corner for his ninth goal this season.

In Arne Slot's first season in charge, Liverpool are two points clear of City after their eighth win in 10 league games.

Nottingham Forest are up to third place after beating 10-man West Ham 3-0 to make it three consecutive top-flight victories for the first time since 1999.

Chris Wood grabbed his eighth goal in 10 league games as the New Zealand striker headed home after 27 minutes.

West Ham had Edson Alvarez sent off in first-half stoppage-time for two bookings.

Callum Hudson-Odoi struck in the 65th minute and Ola Aina sealed the points 12 minutes from full-time at the City Ground.

Jordan Ayew's stoppage-time equaliser denied Ipswich their first top-flight win since 2002 as Leicester rescued a 1-1 draw at Portman Road.

Leif Davis's 55th-minute volley put Ipswich ahead but the hosts had Kalvin Phillips sent off in the 77th minute.

Ayew levelled with seconds left to leave third-bottom Ipswich winless after 10 games.

Second-bottom Southampton earned their first league win this season as Adam Armstrong's 85th-minute strike sealed a 1-0 success against Everton.

Premier League: Man City suffer first league loss in 2024; Liverpool win against Brighton

FC Goa triumphed over Bengaluru FC by 3-0 at the Fatorda Stadium in Goa in the Indian Super League (ISL) 2024-25 season on Saturday (Nov 2). A second-half flourish from Manolo Marquez’s men saw Bengaluru FC taste defeat for the first time in the ongoing season. Armando Sadiku was once again the protagonist with a goal and an assist while the likes of Brison Fernandes and Dejan Drazic also joined the party for the Gaurs.

Buoyed by their fans, the Gaurs started the game brightly, creating a few openings in the first quarter. Dejan Drazic and young midfielder Ayush Dev Chhetri caused a lot of trouble for Bengaluru FC defenders with their mazy runs. However, they had nothing to show for their efforts as their eventual shots lacked the venom required to challenge the Blues’ custodian Gurpreet Singh Sandhu.

Another player who was up for challenges on his return from injury was Sandesh Jhingan. The experienced defender went toe-to-toe with Edgar Mendez, winning the majority of the duels in the first period. He brought back the physicality that this FC Goa side missed in his absence.

Despite the chances, the hosts returned to their dressing room at half-time, empty-handed. The Gaurs showed great urgency but majorly lacked the final product to hurt the Bengaluru FC backline.

The second period started in a similar fashion with Marquez’s men controlling the tempo of the game and making meaningful penetrations into the final third. Bengaluru FC tactician Gerard Zaragoza did try to disrupt the momentum in midfield by introducing Suresh Singh Wangjam at the start of the second half, but the Gaurs kept dominating possession.

Despite several trials and errors, the hosts finally took the lead in the 63rd minute courtesy of their talisman Armando Sadiku. It was Mohammad Yasir, who pickpocketed Pedro Capo and ran at the Bengaluru FC backline before finding Sadiku in the box with a brilliantly-weighted cross. The Albanian made no mistake in finding the back of the net from close range.

In the 71st minute, Marquez decided to freshen things up as he brought on Brison Fernandes, replacing Yasir and the youngster made an instant impact. Sadiku’s energetic press allowed him to pickpocket a ball from Gurpreet. The forward passed it back to Brison, who came up with a sensational long-range strike from the right, catching Rahul Bheke and the entire Blues backline off-guard as the Gaurs doubled their lead.

FC Goa kept pushing as Manolo turned to Iker Guarrotxena in the 79th minute. The Spaniard showed his class when he combined with Dejan Drazic as the latter scored the third goal for the hosts in stoppage time to seal their second win of the season. Bengaluru FC had their chances but it was certainly not their night.

The second period started in a similar fashion with Marquez’s men controlling the tempo of the game and making meaningful penetrations into the final third. Bengaluru FC tactician Gerard Zaragoza did try to disrupt the momentum in midfield by introducing Suresh Singh Wangjam at the start of the second half, but the Gaurs kept dominating possession. Despite several trials and errors, the hosts finally took the lead in the 63rd minute courtesy of their talisman Armando Sadiku. It was Mohammad Yasir, who pickpocketed Pedro Capo and ran at the Bengaluru FC backline before finding Sadiku in the box with a brilliantly-weighted cross. The Albanian made no mistake in finding the back of the net from close range.

Sadiku’s energetic press allowed him to pickpocket a ball from Gurpreet. The forward passed it back to Brison, who came up with a sensational long-range strike from the right, catching Rahul Bheke and the entire Blues backline off-guard as the Gaurs doubled their lead. FC Goa kept pushing as Manolo turned to Iker Guarrotxena in the 79th minute. The Spaniard showed his class when he combined with Dejan Drazic as the latter scored the third goal for the hosts in stoppage time to seal their second win of the season. Bengaluru FC had their chances but it was certainly not their night.

After a dominant show with the bowl on Day 2 of the ongoing Mumbai Test match against New Zealand, India’s star all-rounder Ravichandran Ashwin has warned the hosts not to take things lightly. Having established a narrow 28-run lead in the first innings, India restricted New Zealand to 171/9 at Stumps on Day 2. Ashwin was the star with the ball with three wickets while Ravindra Jadeja yet again is on the cusp of five-fer having scalped four wickets.

<h2>Ashwin warns India</h2>

“It's not going to be easy, we'll have to bat really well. I expected a lot more bounce and speed from this Mumbai pitch, it has been quite slow which is a surprise for me. It's not a typical Bombay pitch, but much slower than usual,” Ashwin said while speaking to the broadcasters after Stumps on Day 2.

So far the pitch has favoured bowlers with 29 wickets falling inside the opening two days of the Mumbai Test match. According to Ashwin, things are not going to be easy for them with the bat as New Zealand could still have enough on the board to script a historic whitewash in the series.

<h2>India take narrow lead in first innings</h2>

Having closed Day 1 on 86/4, the Indian pair of Shubman Gill (90) and Rishabh Pant (60) made most of their chances as the hosts took a first innings lead for the first time in the series. Pant and Gill stitched a stand of 96 runs for the fifth wicket before the former was dismissed by Ish Sodhi. Ravindra Jadeja (14) and Washington Sundar (38) made significant contributions to the total as India took the lead in the first innings.

Local boy Sarfaraz Khan failed to make an impact having been dismissed for a duck while Aksha Deep went for a Platinum duck (out without facing a ball). Ajaz Patel yet again enjoyed the Mumbai surface as he scalped a five-fer, adding to his impressive 10 wickets in an innings from last India tour at the same tour.

<h2>New Zealand restricted to 171/9</h2>

Having established a lead of 28 runs after the first innings, Indian bowlers were yet again on the money as they bagged wickets at regular intervals. Will Young was the top scorer with 51 runs while Devon Conway (22), Daryl Mitchell (21) and Glenn Phillips (26) got starts but could not convert them into big innings.

New Zealand lead by 143 runs in the second innings with one wicket in hand, meaning India will have a less than 200-run target if they can bowl the visitors out on Day 3.
