This is quite a magnificent example of choking so far.

Slight understatement here perhaps, but Vettel is not having a great season.

Beauty from Plunkett to get rid of Nicholls. Get Taylor quickish and this looks very nice.

Federer and Nadal was just fantastic, and I'm happy Federer won.

I mean seeing as Roy didn't touch it the ball was a wide, how embarrassing are we calling that? Speaking of Roy he got his demerit points for his reaction but won't be banned for the final.

This has the potential to be a hilarious situation. I'm picturing Westbrook and Harden trying to guard each other on an inbound pass to make sure it goes to them.

Just watched the highlights, what a sensational performance. That third six by Roy off Smith was out of this world, perhaps literally.

I haven't seen it yet but from what I hear the Roy dismissal was beyond a shocker, and unfortunately his reaction might cost him, to the extent of being banned from the final if his demerit points add up.

Well this is going better than expected. These two need to be opening in the Ashes, or at least Roy and a more specialist Test Opener for balance.

I can't even call it. My hope is that they don't bat with any fear as they have done in every other chase this tournament, even though it's only 23 more a target under 200 would have left me feeling a lot more positive.

And now 114-3. Never write off Steve "I didn't know it was happening even though I obviously knew it was happening" Smith.

And with that I send a warm congratulations to Australia for their victory.

Baddiel and Brand should be amazing and I've always liked Katy Wix in her sitcoms and sketches so it'll be fun to see her in a new context. I feel like I know the other two from somewhere, but I'm sure they'll be good. Really looking forward to this one.

This is their statement, I am not even joking. To paraphrase someone involved in this, what a bunch of fucking clowns.

Jadeja gone, advantage NZ. This is truly a nail-biting Live Text watch. DHONI GONE!

Random question - what is the etiquette behind helping fallen players up from the court? In most other sports, at least in Europe, if a player is on the ground then whoever is nearest, regardless of what team they're on, helps them back to their feet. In basketball though it seems that if an opposing player goes to help someone up then it's some kind of insult, and players on the same team rush over from wherever they may be to offer a hand (although the speed depends on if it's someone like LeBron on the floor or, say, Anthony Wiggins). Then you have instances where a teammate is left to get up themselves with no help and it becomes a huge deal like when everyone on the Cavs ignored Kevin Love once.

Should be 5 or 6 after a couple of dropped chances. I can't see it lasting but man would it be great if India lost.

Just reading this article about Giannis which is a really interesting dive into his background, and this sentence stood out to me: Sorry @Meacon

Although he only signed on to direct Suicide Squad 2 because he'd been fired from GOTG3 for a ridiculous reason...

Serena has been fined $10,000 for damaging a court during a practice session two weeks ago, meanwhile Fabio Fognini has been fined $3,000 for saying that he hoped a bomb would blow up Wimbledon. I see UEFA are in charge of the fines committee at Wimbledon.

Andrew Wiggins is available! Oh. Never mind.

England's women are performing the worst I've ever seen from them as they get blitzed by Australia in the Women's Ashes, Ellyse Perry, who may have been hand-made by the Gods, is just on another level.

Zion is out of the remainder of the Summer League after suffering a knee injury last night, making my purchase of NBA League Pass to watch the Summer League slightly less fulfilling. On a related note watching the game last night when the earthquake hit was crazy, to have that much of an impact on a building so far away from the epicenter is just staggering.

The Raptors are a team now led by Kyle Lowry, Based on that I'd be amazed if they finish with any other record than 41-41.
