Suresh Raina takes a blinder during IND-L vs AUS-L match; watch video

Former India player Suresh Raina showed great athleticism on the field during the semi-final match of Road Safety World Series T20 match between India Legends and Australia Legends as he took a stunning catch to dismiss Ben Dunk at the end of the 16th over in Raipur.

Dunk cut a length ball from Abhimanyu Mithun in the air and Raina dived to his left and grabbed a stunner.

India Legends had put Australia Legends into bat and Shane Watson and Alex Doolan provided the side with a brilliant start as the two put 60 runs on the board for the first wicket. The Shane Watson-led side lost wickets at regular intervals but kept scoring runs at a decent pace and they were 136/5 in 17 overs when the match was halted due to rain and eventually was called off for the day.

The game has now been rescheduled for Thursday and will be continued from the same point at 3:30pm (IST). Mithun had picked two wickets for 15 runs in three overs for India Legends.

The second semi-final will be played between Sri Lanka Legends and West Indies Legends on Thursday evening while the final will be held on Saturday.

A three-year wait for a goal ended for Mee with a header from Ashley Westwood’s free kick in the 62nd minute, moving Burnley up to eighth in the English Premier League — seven points from the Champions League places with six games to go. Burnley was without Jay Rodriguez — the match-winner against Watford on Thursday — and due to a lack of options Sean Dyche could replace him with only defender Erik Pieters. “Coming into the night with a depleted squad, with only one senior boy on the bench, and playing like we did tonight, it shows the character, it shows we’re together," Mee told Amazon Prime. “To get a goal is nice. I’ve had chances cleared off the line or good saves so it’s nice to finally get one in. "It wasn’t a great ball from Westy (Westwood), it wasn’t what we worked on but you’ve got...

The champions' fifth draw in nine league matches leaves Andrea Pirlo's side fifth, three points behind leaders AC Milan who face Fiorentina on Sunday. Ronaldo did not play after scoring in Juventus's 2-1 victory over Ferencvaros on Tuesday which sealed their berth in the Champions League last 16. "Every team is addicted to Ronaldo, even at Real Madrid he scored a lot," said Pirlo, describing the Portuguese star as "a catalyst". "He is an important player and it's normal that he makes you win games, but even without Ronaldo we have to be good at winning games." Alvaro Morata and Paulo Dybala started up front in Ronaldo's absence, which Pirlo put down to "tiredness". "(Ronaldo) had...
