England Determined To Shake Off Memories Of Wellington Drubbing

On Wednesday, England face the Black Caps at The Riverside in need of victory to secure a semi-final spot. The match has brought back memories of the teams’ World Cup meeting at Wellington in February 2015, when England were skittled out for 123 and lost by eight wickets as Brendon McCullum blasted his side towards the target in just 12.2 overs. Morgan’s men failed to reach the quarter-finals of that tournament but have rebuilt and entered this year’s event as favourites, boosted by their status as hosts....

England Offered Free Whale Watching Trip By Cocky Iceland Fans

The tiny nation of Iceland, competing at their first-ever major tournament, snuck into second place in Group F with a late, late winner against Austria on Wednesday, setting up a knockout game against Roy Hodgson’s men.

England Pays The Price For A Strong Premier League

In 1966, England won the World Cup in their own country thanks to the likes of great players like Sir Bobby Charlton, Geoff Hurst, Bobby Moore. Since then England have failed to reach the final of any major tournament even though they have had the best players and Premier League has become bigger than ever. In the last two major tournaments, they lost in the first knockout round and they were thoroughly outplayed in both the matches....

England Reeling Under Indian Pacer S Barrage

Ishant (2/24), Mohammed Shami (1/28) and Jasprit Bumrah (1/26) reduced England to 84 for 4 at lunch chasing an improbable victory target of 521. At lunch, Jos Buttler (19 batting) and Ben Stokes (3 batting) were the unbeaten batsmen. England need another 437 runs for an improbable victory. Starting from overnight 23 for no loss, the English openers didn’t stay for long, as they had no answer to Ishant’s probing line and length....

England Vs India 2018 Second Odi David Willey S Fiery Fifty Is The Sk Turning Point Of The Match

After their convincing win where Kuldeep Yadav’s superlative bowling performance of 6/25 followed by Rohit Sharma’s 137 no in the chase meant that India also went in unchanged for this game. Eoin Morgan won the toss and surprisingly decided to bat first. The trend nowadays is to generally put the opposition into bat. That decision proved to be a masterstroke as the pitch became slower and was tough to score freely on during the second innings....

England Vs India 5Th Test Day 1 5 Talking Points

Opting to bat first, England adopted an over-cautious approach in their batting, with Alastair Cook and Moeen Ali biding their time away against some disciplined and sustained Indian bowling who never let them get away with easy runs at any point. At 133 for 1 it seemed like both were in for the long haul, but then Cook dragged one on and the downfall began as India roared their way back to take the honors on the opening day....

Ending The Era Of The Starchitect

Designed by the Tokyo firm SANAA, the New Museum shows off-key traits of this new modesty. The firm, headed by Kazuyo Sejima and Ryue Nishizawa, was chosen because the architects are “at the forefront of their generation, concerned with the same issues that preoccupy young artists working now,” said New Museum director Lisa Phillips. Through a deceptively simple design, they’ve shown their gift for wrestling creatively with a small budget (total cost: $50 million) and for addressing a tight urban site....

England And France Advance As Neville Fumes At Cameroon

Steph Houghton lashed England in front from an indirect free-kick, before Ellen White doubled the lead with a goal that was initially ruled out for offside. A VAR review allowed referee Liang Qin to correct that call, infuriating Cameroon players who soon saw an Ajara Nchout strike correctly disallowed. The African side appeared ready to quit in protest but continued and saw Alex Greenwood add England’s third. However, having seen an elbow aimed at Nikita Parris and then Toni Duggan apparently spat at, further punishment was inflicted upon England at the end of an ill-tempered affair as Alexandra Takounda hacked down Houghton....

Phil Burgess did the rest. The English flanker caught the ball at full pace and outran a diving defender before touching down to secure a 24-19 sudden-death win in extra-time against host United States in the Rugby World Cup Sevens quarterfinals on Saturday. “A ridiculous kick by ‘Mitch’ in that kind of cauldron,” said teammate Dan Norton. England needed extra time to win after Perry Baker streaked down the field to score a match-leveling try with about 2:30 left in regulation time....
