Daily Sports Catch-Up: Dust bowl in Nagpur, NCA revamp, Dream of 'One League'

11/26/2015

20th issue of our exciting, informative & concise (300 word) newsletter on Indian sports is here.

Cricket

Dust bowl in Nagpur! As we write, SA have been bundled out for 79 in response to India’s 215. Star of the day Ashwin with another 5-wicket haul (14 fifer!) while Jadeja gets 4 wickets. Duminy’s fighting 35 saved some face for SA after they were 12/ 5 at one stage!

Yesterday, Morkel delivered for SA with a wonderful spell of reverse swing to account for 3 of India’s best batsmen (Vijay, Kohli and Rahane). And, India’s batting makes a star of another off-spinner as Harmer took 4 wickets.

Kohli’s batting stance has come in for sharp criticism from Gavaskar.

#LetsFootball

Reinaldo saved the day for Goa with a delightful stinging drive to tie the match 1-1 against North East. Goa have now only scored once in two games after putting 7 past Mumbai City FC. NEU have now moved into 4th place – a creditable season so far after finishing 8th last season!

Tennis

Champions Tennis League: Hingis never gets old! She won both the singles and mixed doubles to help Hyderabad Aces defeat Chennai Warriors 25-16. The loss means that all home teams have lost in all 3 matches so far!

Hockey

After a creditable draw yesterday, India Women lost to World No. 3 Argentina 1-4 in their 2nd friendly match.
