IND vs ENG: 'A major red flag' — Sanjay Manjrekar slams Shubman Gill over Washington Sundar snub on Day 3
India bowler Washington Sundar (C) with captain Shubman Gill. (Getty Images) NEW DELHI: Former India batter Sanjay Manjrekar has questioned Shubman Gill's captaincy instincts, calling his decision to delay Washington Sundar's introduction into the attack on Day 3 of the fourth Test in Manchester 'a major red flag. ' Go Beyond The Boundary with our YouTube channel. SUBSCRIBE NOW! England, resuming from 225/2, ended the day at a formidable 544/7, taking a 186-run lead and putting India on the back foot. Much of the scrutiny, however, fell on Gill's choice to wait until the 69th over to bring on off-spinner Sundar — despite the pitch showing signs of turn and India's pacers struggling to make breakthroughs. Poll Should Washington Sundar have been introduced earlier in the attack? Yes, definitely. No, it was the right timing. Sundar made an immediate impact once introduced, removing Ollie Pope for 71 and then dismissing Harry Brook for just 3 runs. The late double-strike provided India a brief window back into the game, but many questioned why the off-spinner wasn't used earlier — especially after taking 4/22 in the second innings at Lord's. Shardul Thakur opens up on being under bowled, gives inside details on Rishabh Pant Speaking on Star Sports, Manjrekar didn't mince his words: 'So him [Gill] not bowling Washington Sundar… and there's no plausible reason for him to not bowl. I see this as a major red flag with Shubman Gill's, you know, trait as a captain.' by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like TV providers are furious: this gadget gives you access to all channels Techno Mag Learn More Undo Manjrekar further criticised Gill's preference for sticking with underperforming pacers on a track that clearly offered turn, noting it showed a lack of tactical awareness. Former England pacer Stuart Broad echoed Manjrekar's sentiments. 'Everybody's been saying, where's Washington Sundar? Why are we not seeing him? They're 300-odd for two and we haven't seen the off-spinner who got 4 for 22 in the last innings at Lord's,' Broad remarked on the broadcast. India now face a daunting task on Day 4, with England already firmly in command and Joe Root's sparkling 150 ensuring the hosts are on track for a series-clinching win.

Happy Gilmore 2: All about celebrity guests, golfers, and comedy legends who played cameos
Adam Sandler is back as Happy in the second installment of Happy Gilmore , releasing after nearly three decades. It's a story of a failed hockey player who goes on to become a golf sensation, Happy Gilmore, after he stunned the world by defeating top pro Shooter McGavin (Christopher McDonald) in the 1996 Tour Championship. After he wins the championship, he secures his first gold jacket and wins back his beloved grandma's house. Happy Gilmore 2 was released on July 25, 2025 (Friday), and is available on Netflix. The sequel in the franchise reveals how Happy's life has unfolded over the last three decades. Despite not being critically acclaimed, the original Happy Gilmore was widely regarded as one of the most enduring comedy and sports classics of the '90s, drawing in numerous comedy legends, famous sports figures, and other well-known names for the sequel.

Live Events Jackie Sandler Jackie Sandler, Adam Sandler's real-life wife, essayed the role of Vienna's Boys & Girls Club dance instructor Monica. She secures Happy's daughter, Vienna, a highly coveted spot at the Paris Opera Ballet School by submitting a tape of her dancing. Ken Jennings Ken Jennings, the host of Jeopardy!, also has a small and quick cameo in that exact role when Vienna pulls up a clip from the quiz show where Jennings reads out a clue with Happy as the answer: 'With his amazing long drives and hockey player's temper, this golfer won the first of his six Tour Championships in 1996.' The contestants, Unfortunately, are puzzled and quickly give wrong answers: 'Happy Goldberg,' 'Happy Gudenstein,' and 'Skippy Goldenbaum.' John Daly In the world of Happy Gilmore, it makes sense that the unconventional golf legend Daly, a real-life fan favorite known for his bold style and rebellious attitude that changed pro golf, would spend his retirement living in Happy's garage. Kelsey Plum and Andrew Watt When Happy shows up at the municipal golf course to try out his swing after ten years of being inactive and drinking, the course starters are played by WNBA star Plum and Grammy-winning producer Watt—who's known for working with the Rolling Stones, Elton John, Ozzy Osbourne, Pearl Jam, and others, and has been called the Rock Hall of Fame whisperer. Margaret Qualley, Eric André, and Martin Herlihy Happy is paired with three amateurs at the municipal course who believe that just one lesson at the Golf Hut will totally change their game. Sally, Steiner, and Fitzy are played by The Substance star Qualley, comedian André, and Saturday Night Live's Please Don't Destroy troupe member Herlihy, respectively. Dan Patrick The host of Sports Hole with Pat Daniels, who reports on Happy's drunken antics at the municipal course, is played by sportscaster and radio host Patrick, who is also the real-life host of The Dan Patrick Show. Tim Herlihy, Nelly Korda, and Nancy Lopez The parole board at Westford State Mental Hospital, which decides Shooter isn't fit for release, consists of Drs. Hertz, Young, and Silver—that is, Happy Gilmore co-writer Herlihy (father of Martin mentioned earlier), current top-ranked LPGA golfer Korda, and former LPGA star Lopez. Jonathan Loughran Jonathan Loughran, another longtime member of Sandler's movie crew, appears as the "crazy eye orderly" who finally lets Shooter return to public life after spending 29 years in a mental institution. Sadie Sandler Happy's main ally at the Healing Alkies for Life (H.A.L.) alcohol treatment program, Charlotte, is played by Sandler's older daughter, Sadie. Kym Whitley Bessie, the overly enthusiastic member of H.A.L. who doesn't seem to get that the support group is supposed to be anonymous, is played by comedian Kym Whitley. Ben Stiller Reprising his role from the first movie, Stiller is back in peak tormenter form as retirement home orderly-turned-addiction support group leader Hal L. Naturally, his preferred method of therapy still revolves around manual labor that saves him some time and effort in his own life. You're in his world now, Happy. Alix Earle, Sean Evans, Bobby Lee, Andrew Santino, Cam'ron, and Treasure Wilson The real-life hosts of Hot Mess, Hot Ones, Bad Friends, and Talk with Flee all invite Manatee as a guest during his press tour to promote Maxi Golf. Other cameos There are several more entertaining cameos from both celebrity guests and familiar faces from the sports and comedy worlds. Paige Spiranac appears as Wendy, helping Happy choose new golf clubs, and Blake Clark shows up as an old man trying (and failing) to assist with Happy's training on the beach. Dennis Dugan, who directed the original movie, returns as Tour Championship commissioner Doug Thompson, while model Jon Lovett plays a 'dapper man' at the driving range, continually foiled by Happy's powerful shots. Several legendary and current golf pros pop up during the film, like Fred Couples, Nick Faldo, Jack Nicklaus, Lee Trevino, and Jordan Spieth, among others, sharing the screen with Happy during key tournament scenes. Travis Kelce makes a memorable appearance as a waiter trying to impress the golfers, and Bad Bunny gives Oscar, a busboy turned caddy, plenty of personality. Verne Lundquist and Jack Giarraputo again team up as Tour Championship announcers, and stars like Kevin Nealon, Rob Schneider, Stephen A. Smith, and Post Malone step into fun, often quirky roles. The movie also boasts celebrity cameos from names like Marcello Hernandez, Boban Marjanović, and Guy Fieri, who add their comedic flavors to the story. There are even more wild moments with athletes like Reggie Bush, Rebecca Quin, Nikki Garcia, and, in true 'Happy Gilmore' fashion, Eminem, who drops a classic insult before being thrown into an alligator pond.
