India Vs Afghanistan, One-Off-Test: Gill, Rahul Centuries Put India in Command on Day 1

Indian top-order made Afghanistan bowlers Afghanistan bowlers toil under scorching Mullanpur heat as they piled on 368 runs on the first day of the One-off-Test match and lose only three wickets by the end of the day's play. The India batters handled the transition back to red-ball cricket with ease after a packed T20 schedule, with KL Rahul (100) and Gill (103*) anchoring the innings superbly. Sai Sudharsan (81) and Rishabh Pant (50*) added valuable contributions, while Yashasvi Jaiswal fell early after a promising start. Barring that, India rarely looked troubled, stitching together multiple strong partnerships to close Day 1 in command at 368/3 in 85 overs.

Iran At FIFA World Cup 2026: Team Melli Sets Off From Turkiye For Mexico Amid US Visa Controversy

By Photo Webdesk

Just days before the June 11 start of the FIFA World Cup 2026, the Iranian national football team players set off from Turkiye for their base camp in Mexico on Saturday (June 6), even as some members are still without U.S. visas. The players, dressed in blue blazers over white T-shirts, left the Mardan Palace Hotel in Antalya and boarded a private jet for a direct flight to Mexico. The Iranian players, who have been at a training camp in Antalya since May 18, reportedly received their visas late on Friday. It was unclear whether the federation's president, Mehdi Taj, had been issued a visa. Team Melli will play their first two group games in Inglewood, California, against New Zealand and Belgium, and then will head to Seattle to face Egypt. Iran and the USA could meet in the round of 32 in Arlington, Texas, if both teams come second in their respective groups.

MotoGP Italian Grand Prix: Marco Bezzecchi Wins As Pedro Acosta And Diogo Moreira Claim Top-10 Finish

Pedro Acosta and Diogo Moreira both claimed top-10 finishes in the MotoGP Italian Grand Prix at Mugello as Riders' Championship leader Marco Bezzecchi returned to the top step of the podium with a dominant victory. Following two weeks after the dramatic, crash-filled Catalunya GP, the Italian race was thankfully a much more straight forward affair on the undulating Tuscan circuit. Aprilia rider Bezzechi dominated the race over team-mate Jorge Martín and Ducati's Francesco Bagnaia while Acosta bounced back from a DNF in Catalunya by bringing his Red Bull KTM Factory Racing machine home in sixth place.
