Okay so India just won one more world cup (technically) trophy. We won the World Championship of Legends tournament of 2024. Didn't even know about this thing until two days later now lol. https://www.espncricinfo.com/series...kistan-champions-final-1442366/full-scorecard

Apparently everybody in Pakistan was following this hoping for some sort of revenge from India. But India defeated them in the finals pretty convincingly. Imagine being that serious about a tournament of retired players.

On another note, India played pretty poorly in the group phases and barely qualified over SA (Once again) but went absolutely berserk in the knock outs.
 
Last evening there was a Men's Singles match in Bastad (Sweden) between Rafa Nadal and the legend Bjorn Borg's son Leo Borg. I watched it. It was a nice comeback from Rafa and it was also great to see Leo Borg in action. 21 year old young lad vs 38 year old horse Nadalito. Rafa won the match in straight sets and it seems he is priming himself nicely for the upcoming Olympics.

To think of it when Nadal won his first French Open in 2005 (vs Puerta) Leo Borg was only 2 years old. Just goes to show the dominance of the Big 3 for 2 decades.

Of course now the torch has been passed to the future ATG Alcaraz.
