Former Indian cricket stars Zaheer Khan and Yuvraj Singh are set to join forces in the Canada Super 60 League ahead of its second season. Zaheer Khan has taken on the role of co-owner of the Vancouver Anchors, one of the league’s leading franchises owned by Yuvraj Singh. Both Zaheer and Yuvraj played key roles in India’s 2011 World Cup triumph. They will now begin a new chapter in cricket from Vancouver’s BC Place Stadium. Canada Super 60 Chairman and Founder Abhishek Shah welcomed Zaheer Khan’s association with the league, saying the partnership will play an important role in promoting and developing cricket talent in Canada.

Alex Formenton, who was acquitted last year in the high-profile sexual assault case involving members of Canada’s 2018 World Junior Hockey team, has signed a one-year, $850,000 contract with the Edmonton Oilers. Formenton was the only one of the five acquitted players whose Hockey Canada suspension was lifted immediately by an independent appeal board last month, allowing him to return to professional hockey. The 26-year-old forward from Barrie, Ontario, has not played in the NHL since the 2021-22 season. He spent the past few seasons playing in Switzerland. His return to the NHL comes as his former teammates Michael McLeod, Carter Hart, Dillon Dubé and Cal Foote remain suspended over violations of Hockey Canada’s code of conduct, with their suspensions extending into various years through 2030.

India’s hopes in the Hockey World Cup have come to an end. After the women’s team was eliminated from the semifinal race earlier, the Indian men’s team also exited the semifinal race today. In a must-win encounter, India suffered a 5-3 defeat against Argentina. India needed to win the match by at least two goals to progress to the semifinals, but the team suffered a two-goal defeat instead. Sukhjeet Singh scored twice for India, while Hardik Singh added one goal. With the loss, India’s semifinal hopes are over, and the team will now compete for 7th and 8th place.

India’s women’s team suffered a 2-0 defeat against the Netherlands in the second-round match of the Field Hockey World Cup today. However, despite the loss, India’s hopes of qualifying for the semifinals are not completely over. The Netherlands scored in the second and 38th minutes of the match, while India failed to find the net. To qualify for the semifinals, India must finish among the top two teams in Group E. Following today’s defeat, India have slipped to fourth place in the group. The Netherlands are currently first, followed by China in second and Australia in third. India will face Australia on Sunday. If India manage to beat Australia and the result of the Netherlands vs. China match goes in India’s favour, the Indian team could still qualify for the World Cup semifinals.
