Fox on the field (Video grab)
In a rare interruption in cricket, a fox stole the spotlight during The Hundred 2025 season opener, pausing play momentarily and entertaining the crowd at Lord’s Cricket Ground in London. The unexpected moment happened during the match between London Spirit and Oval Invincibles when a fox darted across the field, causing a brief halt in the game.

The fox made its appearance just as Daniel Worrall of London Spirit was preparing to bowl. Despite the interruption, the crowd cheered and laughed as the fox ran across the field, oblivious to the commotion it caused. The moment was captured by Sky Sports Cricket and quickly went viral online.
Shortly after its unexpected visit, the fox ran across the boundary rope, allowing the game to resume. The match continued, with the Oval Invincibles securing a six-wicket victory over London Spirit. Rashid Khan and Sam Curran shone with the ball, each taking three wickets to dismantle the Spirit lineup.
Rashid Khan, who was named Player of the Match, expressed his joy at the winning start and credited his experience for the performance. Despite the cricketing action, it was the fox's antics that left a lasting impression on the spectators at Lord’s.

Allegations of Fraudulent Surrogacy Practices Surface at Hyderabad Fertility Clinic
HYDERABAD: Gopalapuram police have registered five new cases against the head of Srushti Fertility Clinic Dr Athaluri Namratha alias Pachipala Namratha, and others based on complaints lodged by five sets of victims. While in one case a couple alleged that the doctor handed them a baby whose DNA did not match theirs, three other couples accused the clinic of adopting dubious methods. They claimed that they had already paid the money â anywhere from Rs 12.5 lakh to Rs 19 lakh â and even deposited their biological samples when they grew suspicious about the operations of Dr Namratha and her clinic. The frauds occurred between 2019 and 2025. Cops are yet to ascertain details of the fifth case.

Former India Pacer Questions Jasprit Bumrah’s Impact in Drawn England Series

Shubman Gill's Landmark England Series: Complete List of Records and Milestones
NEW DELHI: Indian skipper Shubman Gill's batting reached a new level during India's hard-fought 2-2 series draw in England. The elegant right-hander from Punjab not only delivered with the bat but also impressed with his tactical acumen, guiding a young team in transition—without stalwarts Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, and Ravichandran Ashwin, who retired from Tests following a disastrous Border-Gavaskar Trophy campaign in Australia. Gill entered the series under immense scrutiny, having not crossed 40 outside Asia since his iconic 91 at Brisbane in 2021. Often touted as Virat Kohli's 'heir apparent,' Gill needed to prove himself. A few technical tweaks and a calmer mindset helped him find the focus and discipline required to carve his name into Test cricket's history books.

Test-by-Test breakdown of Shubman Gill's historic series:
1st Test – Leeds (147 & 8):
Gill's first century outside Asia was a statement of redemption. It was a reminder to his critics and perhaps a reassurance to himself that he belonged at the highest level of Test cricket. He became only the fourth Indian—after Vijay Hazare, Sunil Gavaskar, and Virat Kohli—to score a century in his debut innings as Test captain. He also crossed 2,000 Test runs, echoing Kohli's milestone in Adelaide (2014).
2nd Test – Edgbaston (269 & 161):
If Leeds was redemption, Edgbaston was domination. Gill scored a majestic 269, laced with 30 fours and 3 sixes, followed by a blistering 161 off 162 balls in the second innings. His marathon effort powered India to their first-ever Test win at Birmingham—by a record 336 runs. He became:
