In the aftermath of losing their two most talented players there has been no similar spending spree from Porto despite the eye-watering fee they have received. In fact it has been business as usual, just like it was two seasons ago when Raul Meireles and Bruno Alves were both sold, or when Falcao departed a year later, or when Fredy Guarin and Alvaro Pereira were sold to Inter Milan last summer to form the prelude to Hulk’s big-money move to Zenit St Petersburg in January....

Agatha has come in contact with a number of well-known faces throughout her time in the Marvel comics, including Captain America, Shuri, and both Sharon and Peggy Carter. There haven’t been too many details released about Marvel’s upcoming Agatha Harkness series, so it’s difficult to tell which characters will be joining her, or what time period the events of the show will take place. Given how long Agatha has been lurking around in the world, the series could be either a sequel or a prequel to WandaVision, as well as any other Marvel project that’s been released so far....

Hamlin missed four races with a broken back, Stewart (Patrick’s boss) has missed 10 with a broken leg and Martin, 54, only runs a partial schedule (24 of 31 races so far). Yet they rank 24th, 25th and 27th, while Patrick is 28th in the Sprint Cup standings. Granted, those are four elite drivers, but all four have uncharacteristically struggled this year. Yet they still have scored more points than Patrick, whose rookie season has been a big disappointment....

For now, the record-breaking $1.9 billion prize sits temporarily out of reach as organizers frantically try to get the game back on track.

Reeling after two crushing defeats, the West Indies showed the stomach to fight as they batted with a lot more purpose at the M A Chidambaram stadium here....
