Still, the four-time MVP couldn’t carry the LA Lakers to a much-needed win over their rival, the LA Clippers. Despite the gutsy effort on the second night of a back-to-back set, some fans still couldn’t resist taking shots at “King James:” Image credit : – basketball After playing 38 minutes in the Lakers’ 135-133 overtime win against the Utah Jazz in Salt Lake City, James didn’t have his legs early on.

LeBron James and the LA Lakers played their third game in four nights when they took on the LA Clippers. It showed in the way they opened the first quarter when they struggled on both ends of the floor. Image credit : – champions “King James” dropped 37 points against the Utah Jazz on Tuesday night but mustered just three points in the first half against the Clippers.

Former Ferrari driver Jean Alesi supported the decisions race directors made during the 2023 F1 Australian GP. The race in Melbourne was anything but clean, with three red flags, several safety car periods, and eight cars retiring. While many fans debated whether certain red flags and penalties should have been given, Alesi fully supported the race directors and their decisions. Image credit : – sportskeeda Speaking to Corriere dello Sport, Alesi shared his opinion and stated that the stewards controlled the race perfectly. He explained how the Albert Park circuit is a dangerous track with higher chances of red flags.…
Former New Zealand captain Kane Williamson has been dealt a cruel blow as he has been ruled out of the ICC men’s ODI World Cup 2023 in India later this year after injuring his knee in the opening match of Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 while attempting a catch on the boundary for Gujarat Titans. Williamson will require surgery on his injured right knee, after scans on Tuesday confirmed he’d ruptured his anterior cruciate ligament while fielding for the Gujarat Titans. “The standard rehabilitation timelines mean that Williamson is now unlikely to be fit and available for selection at this…
The stakes have rarely been this high when the Los Angeles Lakers and Los Angeles Clippers meet, with Wednesday night’s matchup between the teams a legitimate showdown as the regular season nears a close. Known as a rivalry in proximity only, especially from the Lakers’ side, Wednesday’s game is poised to be remembered regardless of who wins. Both teams enter 41-38 with three regular-season games remaining, although the Clippers technically are in sixth place in the Western Conference, which would give them a guaranteed spot in the first round of the playoffs.

The delay is in stark contrast to the 2019 event, when the dates and venues for the tournament in England and Wales were announced more than a year out in keeping with usual practice for major sporting events. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has previously co-hosted three ODI World Cups and organising the 10-team event in October-November should present no major difficulties for the world’s richest board. However, soured political relations between India and Pakistan have complicated matters and cricket finds itself caught in the geopolitical crossfire between the feuding neighbours, who play each other only…

Every year the Indian Premier League (IPL) auction gives hopes to the fans supporting their respective franchises as they eagerly wait for some stellar additions in the squad which can help them in the regular season. This year was no different as the mini-auction held in Kochi on Friday saw some players spark off a bidding war, with some sold for massive amount and other who did not find their place in any franchise. The Lucknow outfit made their second appearance in the auction this year after having relished a decent season in the previous edition of the lucrative tournament.…
Kolkata Knight Riders have won the Indian Premier League title twice, in 2012 and 2014. But since then, they couldn’t get their hands on the trophy. The last time they reached the IPL final was in 2021, when Eoin Morgan led them to the final of the tournament. But they lost to the Chennai Super Kings to end the season as runners-up. But the 2022 season was worse, as they couldn’t reach the playoffs either. KKR finished at 7th place on the table with only six games out of 14. The franchise retained its core players ahead of the auction…
Mahendra Singh Dhoni’s laid-back style of leadership, and the franchise’s penchant for banking almost exclusively on 30-year-old T20 veterans, is in stark contrast to the format’s characteristic. But Chennai have solid results to back this strategy – they have won the IPL four times and finished runners-up five times since the tournament started in 2008. Chennai are known to give the players they pick a long rope and expect them to do much of the problem solving on the pitch rather than in team meetings. That has made Chennai an attractive team for players who want to take their game…
The defending champions Gujarat Titans (GT) had a strategy of adding more depth to their otherwise strong squad as they geared up for a successful title heading into the IPL 2023 mini-auction that took place in Kochi on Friday, December 23.

GT who had finished as the table-toppers of IPL 2022 before getting the better of the Rajasthan Royals in Qualifier 1 and the final to bag their maiden IPL crown had come…

IPL 2023 Rajasthan Royals: Rajasthan Royals entered the IPL 2008 season as underdogs, with media and critics giving them faint chances of winning. However, the team, led by legendary Shane Warne, upset Mumbai Indians in the semi-final and Chennai Super Kings in the final to clinch the inaugural trophy. Australia’s Shane Watson played the key role in the team’s success with 472 runs and 17 wickets and helped Rajasthan win 13 matches out of 16 in the tournament. The team would never show similar glimpses of brilliance in IPL, and barring in 2013, when they won 11 out of 18…
