Sports - / Aug 23, 2026 - BWF Worlds Live: Gicquel, Delrue stun top seeds to win mixed doubles title - BWF World Championships 2026 Live Updates: The French contingent produced one of the biggest stories of semifinal day at the BWF World Championships 2026 in New Delhi, securing two historic final berths on Saturday. Fifth seeds Thom Gicquel and Delphine Delrue made history by becoming the first French mixed doubles pair to reach a World Championships final. They recovered from a 19-21 opening-game loss against China's second seeds Jiang Zhen Bang and Wei Ya Xin, winning the second game 21-13 before taking control of the decider. The French pair surged 12-0 ahead and held their nerve despite a late Chinese fightback to win 21-11.Alex Lanier then joined his compatriots in the finals after the ninth seed defeated Canada's seventh-ranked Victor Lai 16-21, 21-13, 21-14 in an 85-minute men's singles semifinal. The comeback marked another major milestone for French badminton on a memorable day in New Delhi.Hosts India had earlier secured a historic women's doubles bronze through Treesa Jolly and Gayatri Gopichand. The 39th-ranked pair put up a spirited challenge against world No.1 Liu Sheng Shu and Tan Ning but eventually went down in three games. Their impressive campaign included wins over three seeded combinations and ended India's 15-year wait for a women's doubles World Championships medal, dating back to Jwala Gutta and Ashwini Ponnappa's bronze in 2011.Defending champion Akane Yamaguchi also advanced to the women's singles final, defeating Thailand's Pornpawee Chochuwong 21-12, 21-17. Meanwhile, Japan's Tomoka Miyazaki bowed out but said she was determined to learn from matches against the world's best as she continues her development.

Sports - / Aug 23, 2026 - IND vs SL 2nd Test: Padikkal, Gill hit fifties as India strengthen position vs Sri Lanka - India vs Sri Lanka Live, 2nd Test: Colombo brings a very different setting for the second and final Test between Sri Lanka and India, with the Sinhalese Sports Club surrounded by skyscrapers and the iconic 350m Colombo Lotus Tower. Yet, despite the modern skyline, SSC retains much of its old-world cricketing charm, with grass banks, modest stands and a manual scoreboard. The venue has hosted 46 Tests and will stage its 47th, making it the second-most used Test venue in Asia after Galle.The conditions are expected to favour batters, with SSC traditionally producing flat pitches where teams batting first can post imposing totals. However, the heat, humidity and possibility of rain across all five days could test the endurance of both sides. Spinners have also played a significant role at the venue, claiming 45 wickets in the last three Tests, 10 more than the pacers.India enter the contest with confidence after their 165-run win in Galle, but captain Shubman Gill and Yashasvi Jaiswal will be keen to make an impact after modest returns in the series opener. Devdutt Padikkal, KL Rahul, Rishabh Pant and debutant Manav Suthar were instrumental in India's victory.Sri Lanka, meanwhile, have made changes to their batting line-up. Kamil Mishara is set to replace Nishan Madhushka at the top, while Sahan Arachchige is also in contention after impressive performances for Sri Lanka A. India could also hand Saransh Jain a debut, with the off-spinner potentially coming in at the expense of Kuldeep Yadav.With India looking to strengthen their World Test Championship campaign and Sri Lanka desperate to level the series, the SSC Test promises an intriguing contest.
