Whenever a team scores 200 plus batting first, the spectators in the stadium and the TV audience are very keen to know how the chase would be. Will it be a successful one or will it be a collapse in an attempt to keep up with the required run rate? This chase was more dramatic than anyone could imagine. Tallawah were 41/5 after 6.1. Andre Russell comes in and top-edged the very first ball only to be dropped by Ali Khan who had by then taken three wickets in his three-over spell....

The complete opposite of Fleming is Steve Smith. Fleming’s appearance was firm and composed, on the contrary, Smith is always on the move. But like Fleming, Smith’s rise in cricket too is tremendous. He started as a leg-spinner who could bat and seven years after his debut, has 20 Test centuries in 100 innings. What’s more intriguing is his selection as the leader of Australia. Fleming was seen as a natural leader and had an aura about him since his debut but Smith, during his initial years, came across as an immature kid who is still learning about the game....

Seriously, that’s uncanny. MORE: CFP National Championship photos | Jimmy Kimmel’s ‘Mean Tweets’ CFB edition | OSU-Oregon championship mural I usually tweet out when the Ducks have their “planned” third-quarter turnover, but that’s just ridiculous. Oregon capitalized on the change of possession by driving down the field and kicking a field goal to cut Ohio State’s lead to 21-20.

The Steelers might be playing this weekend if not for injuries to Antonio Brown and DeAngelo Williams. The Seahawks could have advanced if Thomas Rawls had not gotten injured. The Chiefs could have used Jamaal Charles at running back. And who knows how the season-long absence of Jordy Nelson affected the Packers. Nonetheless, the playoffs roll on. Survive and advance. Win or go home. A penny saved is a penny earned....

That’s actually pretty cool, and it’s certainly factual. But the scorecard is bound to rub some people the wrong way because, well, it’s the Cardinals. Rubbing some people the wrong way is what the Cardinals do. That and win division titles.

Israel has refused demands from Shalit’s kidnappers to release Palestinian prisoners in return for information about the missing soldier. Meanwhile, the Israeli military is continuing its operations in Gaza even as it pounds the militant Lebanese-based Hizbullah group for launching a similar raid that left eight more soldiers dead and two others in captivity last week.
