The big-hitting Shafali Verma displayed her skills with the ball as she claimed a hat-trick for Haryana against Karnataka in the pre-quarterfinal of the Women’s Under-23 ODI Trophy on Monday. The 21-year-old’s effort helped Haryana secure a six-wicket win and a spot in the quarterfinals.
Hosts New Zealand take a 2-0 lead in the five-match T20I series, defeating Pakistan in a rain-affected encounter in Dunedin. The Kiwis chase down a 136-run target in 13.1 overs, losing five wickets along the way. Tim Seifert smashes a 22-ball 45 at the top of the order to set the tone, and is thus named the Player of the Match in what was truncated to a 15-over game.
While the 20-over format is seen by many as a young player’s game, requiring raw power and stamina, the veterans have had incredible success in leagues as well. Players like Chris Gayle have attained incredible success despite joining the Indian Premier League at the twilight of their careers. The 18th edition will feature several veteran stars, including bonafide legends like MS Dhoni. HERE is a list of the five oldest players in IPL 2025, with the ages correct as of March 17.

In a key NBA clash, Obi Toppin slots in his fourth 3-pointer of overtime with 3.5 seconds left on the clock to lift the Indiana Pacers over Minnesota 132-130, ending the Timberwolves’ eight-game winning streak. Toppin nets a season-high 34 points on 7-for-10 shooting from deep to help the Pacers win without their top six scorers down the stretch. Four starters were out. Andrew Nembhard was ejected in the third quarter, and Bennedict Mathurin fouled out in the fourth. Anthony Edwards scored 29 of his 38 points after halftime for the Timberwolves.
The second T20I between Pakistan and New Zealand has been reduced to a 15-overs-a-side contest due to rain in Dunedin. Play is now underway, and the Men In Green are off to an inauspicious start, losing the wickets of openers Mohammad Haris and Hasan Nawaz inside the first 20 balls.
The International Olympic Committee’s executive board has approved the inclusion of boxing in the programme for the 2028 Los Angeles Olympic Games, ahead of its 144th session that starts today. IOC had earlier granted provisional recognition to World Boxing in February, which sidelined the International Boxing Association and transferred authority to the new governing body. The IOC session slated from March 18-21, which will also elect a new president to succeed the outgoing Thomas Bach, is likely to ratify the executive board’s decision to include boxing in the LA Games 2028 roster.
Rain has affected the start of the second T20I international between Pakistan and New Zealand in Dunedin. The toss, originally scheduled for 6:15am, is yet to take place and the next inspection is at 7:30am IST. You can track live updates of the game at our dedicated blog HERE.
