Bogota, Dec 17 (PTI) Commonwealth Games bronze medallist weightlifter Gurdeep Singh finished a disappointing 21st in the men’s +109kg event at the World Championships here. Competing in Group C, the 27-year-old lifted 350kg (145kg+205kg), a whopping 40kg less than his bronze medal-winning performance at the CWG earlier this year in August. Gurdeep began his snatch by swiftly lifting 145kg. However, he did not attempt any more lifts in the section. In the clean and jerk, the Punjab lifter started with 205kg lift but fluffed up his second and third attempts of 215kg and 216kg respectively. The Indian contingent returns with…

Chattogram, Dec 17 (PTI) Seasoned Axar Patel upped the ante with a triple strike just when it mattered as Indian bowlers compensated for an insipid first session by reducing Bangladesh to 272 for 6, closing in on a big victory, on the fourth day of the opening Test here on Saturday. Debutant Zakir Hasan (100 off 224 balls) showed a lot of character, scoring a patient hundred but saving the Test match by batting out for nearly 180 overs in two days was always going to be an uphill task, as also chasing a target of 513. Bangladesh need another…

Chattogram, Dec 17 (PTI) Zakir Hassan inched closer to a century on debut as he steered Bangladesh to 176 for 3 at tea on the fourth day of the opening Test here on Saturday.

Chattogram, Dec 17 (PTI) Zakir Hasan batted with dogged determination but Kuldeep Yadav put India ahead by dismissing Litton Das as Bangladesh looked a tad unsettled having reached 176 for 3 at tea on the fourth day of opening Test on Saturday. Zakir, who had recently played a big role in a drawn ‘Test’ against India A, showed admirable defensive technique to remain unbeaten on 82. But it was left-arm wrist spinner Kuldeep, who enticed the profligate Litton with a flighted delivery. The batter couldn’t reach to the pitch of the delivery and an ugly scoop landed straight in the…
