Agency | New Delhi The Delhi High Court will pronounce its order on wrestler Sushil Kumar’s plea of holding trials against compatriot Narsingh Yadav for 74kg 2016 Rio Olympics berth on June 6. While Narsingh had insisted that going to the Brazilian capital is his right as he secured the quota in the 74-kg category with a bronze medal finish in last year’s World Championships,
Sushil, who won gold in the same category at the 2014 Commonwealth Games, called for trials to be conducted to determine who should go to Rio. The High Court had earlier on May 17 refused to intervene in the matter and asked the Wrestling Federation of India (WFI) to meet Sushil and sort out the issue. Sushil had also appealed to the Sports Ministry, Indian Olympic Association (IOA) and WFI to give
him a chance for the Rio Games, as quota according to the rules belongs to the country and not to a particular wrestler. Narsingh has been staking his claim to represent India at the Olympics since last year when he secured a quota place at the World Championship in Las Vegas after winning a bronze in 74kg. Sushil, who missed the event due to a shoulder injury, has been demanding a trial.
Midfielder Gundogan is Pep’s first signing as Man City manager Agency | Manchester
German midfielder Ilkay Gundogan has joined Manchester City from Bundesliga side Borussia Dortmund on a four-year deal, the Premier League club announced on Thursday. The 25-year-old, who had a year remaining on his Dortmund contract, is the club’s first signing since they confirmed Spanish coach Pep Guardiola would take over at the Etihad from Manuel Pellegrini prior to the start of next season. City did not disclose financial details of the deal but British media reported that Gundogan would cost the Premier League club around 20
The women’s cricket committee of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has finally taken the progressive step of allowing India’s women cricketers to play in overseas Twenty20 (T20) leagues. Unlike the men’s version of the game — which has a dime a dozen T20 leagues such as Indian Premier League (IPL), Big Bash League (BBL), Caribbean Premier League (CPL), Natwest T20 Blast, Ram Slam T20, Pakistan Super League (PSL), and Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) among others — there are only two T20 leagues
at present for women’s cricketers. The first is the Women’s Big Bash League (WBBL), which began only last season, and the second is England’s Women’s Super League (WSL), which will kick off this season. This is a move that makes a lot of sense. BCCI does not allow male Indian cricketers to play in foreign T20 leagues citing
the possibility of fatigue —the possibility that that will take away from the novelty of IPL also hangs overhead — but given that Indian women do not play half as much as the men and that there is almost no chance of a women’s IPL happening any time soon, it makes perfect sense for Indian women to be allowed to play WBBL and WSL.
countries of the continent have been required to feature in these play-off matches to give them a chance to make it to the qualifying tournament of the 2019 Asian Cup. India could only collect three points from a win from eight matches in the preliminary round and they need to begin the home and away play-off tie well tomorrow if they want to
avoid the ignominy of not being able to even qualify to play in the qualifiers of the Asian Cup. The return leg is scheduled for June 7 in Guwahati. Head coach Stephen Constantine have come to Laos with 21 players as several have been left out due to injury. Out of those injured, six could have “started against Laos”, according to Constantine.

million pounds ($29 million). “I’m thrilled to have signed for Manchester City,” Gundogan said in a statement on City’s website (www. mcfc.co.uk). “The opportunity to work with a coach like Pep Guardiola is something I am really looking forward to and I am flattered to be the first signing the club has made this summer.” The
injury-prone German international dislocated a kneecap in training in May, ruling him out of the 2016 European Championships in France. Gundogan, who also missed the 2014 World Cup with a back injury, made more than 150 appearances in five years at Dortmund after being recruited by Jurgen Klopp, who is now in charge of Liverpool.
Their preliminary round campaign ending in disappointment, India will need to get their act together and salvage some pride when they take on Laos in a play-off match of the 2019 AFC Asian Cup Football Qualifiers in Vientanne (Laos) on Thursday. India were left to feature in this play-off match after they finished at the bottom of their group during the preliminary round of the joint qualification campaign of the 2019 AFC Asian Cup and 2018 FIFA World Cup. The bottom-placed teams of each group of the preliminary round and a few other lowest-ranked

The cat, so to speak, might finally be out of the bag. Officially, at least. On Wednesday, as the International Cricket Council (ICC) announced the fixtures for its flagship event, the 2017 Champions Trophy in England, one fixture unsurprisingly stood out. India and Pakistan will clash against each other in an ICC event for the fifth time in a row, a run that began in the 2012 World T20 in Sri Lanka. The match will be played on 4 June at Edgbaston in Birmingham. However, what came as a surprise was an admission of sorts by ICC chief executive Dave Richardson, when he said , “No doubt we want to try and pit India versus
Pakistan in our event.” Richardson’s statement hinted towards a deliberate attempt by cricket’s governing body to pitch these teams against one another, given its significance. He added, “It’s hugely important from an ICC point of view. It’s massive around the world and fans have come to expect it as well, and it’s probably no coincidence that the two keep ending
up in the same group. It’s fantastic for the tournament because it gives it a massive kick.” It is no secret that the ICC considers the lucrative economic benefits of an India-Pakistan match, while drawing its fixtures. First, the guarantee of a full-house, with tickets selling out within minutes, if not seconds, of being released to the public.
