Wales have done something that hasn't happened in seventy-three years — they've beaten the All Blacks. A stunning thirty-five to twenty-eight victory at Cardiff sent the stadium into absolute pandemonium, ending a wait that stretched back to nineteen fifty-three. This wasn't a fluke either, it was a controlled, commanding performance that will be talked about for generations in Welsh rugby.

Shifting to the cricket, South Africa are set for their opening Test against Bangladesh at the Wanderers on Sunday, and the Proteas have made two changes to the side that dismantled Australia. Zubayr Hamza and Dane Paterson come into the XI, replacing Bedingham and Coetzee. South Africa arrive with genuine momentum and Bangladesh will need to be at their very best to compete.

And over in the IPL, the Lucknow Super Giants are navigating life without Rishabh Pant, and former India opener Abhinav Mukund believes the trade for Kuldeep Yadav could be a franchise-defining move. Mukund sees Kuldeep transforming LSG's attack entirely, though the captaincy question heading into two thousand and twenty-seven remains wide open with two strong internal candidates in the frame.

That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
