New Delhi: Just as we remember old days by listening to forgotten old songs, similarly we can remember our childhood by remembering some forgotten players. One such cricketer was Vikram Solanki. His name may have been Hindustani, but he was completely English. Today is the birthday of Vikram Solanki, born in Udaipur, Rajasthan. Vikram Solanki, born on 1 April 1976, was an important batsman of the England cricket team. He used to bat in the middle order along with opening. Played 51 ODIs for England from 2000 to 2006, in which he scored 1097 runs at an average of more than 26. Scored two centuries and 5 half-centuries.
Vikram Singh Solanki is counted among the best batsmen of his generation, but he was never able to achieve what was expected of him for England. Solanki is also the first international cricketer to become a super substitute in ODI cricket. He was unlucky like India’s Wasim Jaffer, who despite scoring a lot of runs in domestic cricket, could not earn a big name in international cricket. Vikram Solanki scored 18359 runs in 546 innings of 325 first class matches at an average of 35.78, which included 34 centuries and 98 half-centuries.

The Pittsburgh Pirates continue their hot start to the season with a 8-4 victory over the Washington Nationals on Monday, improving their record to 5-0 for the first time since 1983. Connor Joe played a crucial role in the win with two RBI hits, including a game-breaking RBI double in the eighth inning.

Backup catcher Riley Adams helped Washington tie the game in the seventh inning with a two-run homer, but it was not enough to overcome the Pirates’ strong performance. Roansy Contreras picked up the win for Pittsburgh.

In his 8th MLB start, Ronel Blanco throws no-hitter for Astros vs. Tiles
#8th #MLB #start #Ronel #Blanco #throws #nohitter #Astros #Tiles
HOUSTON — The Dominican Ronel Blancowho would not have been in the Astros’ starting rotation if it had not been for injuries to Justin Verlander and José Urquidy, threw the 17th no-hitter in franchise history by dominating the Blue Jays at Minute Maid Park on Monday.
Blanco, 30, retired 26 consecutive batters between walks given to George Springer in the first and ninth innings of Houston’s 10-0 victory — which was the club’s first this season. It was also Puerto Rican Joe Espada’s first victory as a leader and one that he will never forget.
The Dominican’s no-hitter was the first of the young season in the Majors and the first by an Astros pitcher since fellow Dominican Framber Valdez threw a 93-pitch no-hitter against the Guardians on August 1, 2023 at Minute Maid Park. The Houston squad’s 16 no-hitters are the most among MLB expansion teams that have integrated since 1961.
Blanco’s no-hitter was saved in the ninth inning thanks to a great play by Cuban first baseman José Abreu,
Vcha about Krej: Still a leader. I perceive working in the representation positively
2024-03-27 19:59:49
From February 10, Krejčí jumped into eleven competitive matches. In Sparta’s jersey, he completed a duel against Galatasaray and a double-header with Liverpool. Yes, he was not always, to put it mildly, 100% successful. In Pilsen, he was sent off after two fouls on Tomáš Choré.
As expected, the invitation to the national team from the new coach Ivan Hašek did not pass him by. Krejci played 60 minutes in Friday’s duel in Norway and got a full load on Tuesday at home against Armenia. At Letná, he scored an important goal to make it 1:1, but at the same time, he did not look completely confident in all moments.
“Láďa still seems to me to be the leader and captain of Sparta, so I perceive his position. I can’t go into much more analysis, but I would look at everything through the lens of the fact that he recently started twice against one of the top five clubs in the world. Even the best Premier League defenders have problems with Liverpool players. I also think that the 90 minutes in the match against Armenia did not add much to the demanding program that he completed in the current season,” Vácha,

But the real star of the evening was Gianluigi Donnarumma. Impassable, the PSG goalkeeper made ten saves, during an evening where the capital club was often manhandled in the pouring rain.
Despite many situations, Marseille “came across an incredible goalkeeper”conceded Amine Harit at the microphone of Prime Video after the match. Like his teammates, the Moroccan was particularly frustrated by Donnarumma, particularly on his two strikes attempted at the end of the match (87th, 89th). Earlier in the match,

Shortchanged: The Controversy Surrounding the 3-Point Line at Portlands NCAA Tournament Games
The Unforeseen 3-Point Line Controversy in Portland
In a surprising turn of events in Portland, officials created a peculiar situation before the NCAA women’s tournament game between NC State and Texas. They resorted to using measuring tapes to determine the distance of the 3-point lines on the court.
Upon investigation, it was revealed that one of the 3-point lines was inaccurately marked, being nine inches shorter than the standard regulation length. The NCAA issued a statement attributing this error to a misplacement of the ”center-hole” on the court, which was the result of human error by the contractor, Connor Sports, responsible for producing and installing the tournament courts.
The statement clarified that the 3-point arc on the opposite side of the court and all other markings were correctly positioned, except for the erroneous line that caused the discrepancy.
