The Cincinnati Bengals are adding some depth to their backfield. On the morning of the nfl trade deadline, the club executed a trade to acquire veteran running back Khalil Herbert from the Chicago Bears, according to CBS Sports nfl Insider Jonathan Jones. Chicago will receive a 2025 seventh-round pick in exchange for Herbert.
This move comes as Bengals head coach Zac Taylor announced that running back Zack Moss will be out indefinitely due to a neck injury. Moss missed last week’s win over the Las Vegas Raiders, and this addition of Herbert not only provides insurance for Cincinnati but possibly signals a long absence for the veteran running back.
In Herbert, the Bengals get a capable running back who has over 2,000 career yards from scrimmage. This season, he has fallen out of favor in the Bears backfield with the arrival of D’Andre Swift along with Roschon Johnson as a rushing factor, proving to be more useful as a trade asset for Chicago than as an on-field contributor. Through Week 9, Herbert has carried the ball just eight times for 16 yards and a touchdown while playing 7% of the offensive snaps.
However, prior to this season, Herbert had put up impressive totals. The 2021 sixth-round pick out of Virginia Tech has totaled consecutive seasons of at least 700 yards from scrimmage, averaging 5.1 yards per carry during that stretch from 2022-2023.
He will now work behind Chase Brown in the Bengals backfield. Last week, Brown rushed for 120 yards on 27 carries.
It’s March 2023 and a Los Angeles-based photographer who goes by the name Xavier Luggage is in the middle of his first basketball game at the Poinsettia Recreation Center.
The park usually fills up around 6 pm with people arriving to watch the games. But it’s about an hour before when the players’ attention turns to the side of the court.
Everyone sees him warming up, seemingly out of nowhere.
“I thought, damn, he looks like Adam Sandler,” Luggage told ESPN.
His friend thinks the same and gets scared. He runs at Sandler and hits him mid-play.
The comedian has a simple answer: “I’m next.”
SANDLER’S RESUME INCLUDES nine People’s Choice Awards, three Grammy Award nominations and a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. His films have grossed more than $3 billion worldwide. In 2023, the Kennedy Center awarded him the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor.
But when he’s not on the clock, Sandler is just another shooter, and he might just show up at a basketball court near you. Sure, the comedian could presumably play with big names wherever he wants, and he has, but he prefers to play with the locals.
Sandler (who declined a request to comment for this article) has said in previous interviews that he plays basketball several times a week. During filming, a location scout who finds sets for the film also locates clues for him. Sandler will get text messages like: “Five minutes on a good court” so he can play between shots.
He has played with several nba stars over the years, participating in a 2021 run with Trae Young and Tobias Harris, among several pros. In 2010, Hall of Famer Shaquille O’Neal called the comedian “a very good player” who knows the game.
But local courts are where he hones his craft.
Sandler appears without an entourage wearing his trademark brightly colored oversized polo shirts and baggy shorts. Look to make the extra pass. He delivers as many praises as assists, regardless of whether he’s on your team, and competition reigns supreme.

Adam Sandler shows his skills on the court
Adam Sandler warms up on the court before the start of Arizona-Colorado.
Ask the guys who have played against him.
“It’s like that random older guy that comes on the court and you’re like, ‘OK, he’s whatever,’ and then you pick him up and he makes the craziest passes,” Luggage said. “He doesn’t move too much, he doesn’t do as much as possible. But he just has the original game like he’s been playing it forever.”
Luggage recalled an exchange with Sandler when the comedian acted as his defender.
“He came up to me and said, ‘Oh man, I hope you’re not quick,'” the photographer said. “And I looked at him like, ‘Oh man, you fucked up.'”
In retrospect, it might have been Luggage who was wrong to underestimate Sandler’s basketball skills.
“He intended to play. It’s not like he just came to fuck around, you know, like he wanted to win for sure…” Luggage said of their encounter in Los Angeles. “Honestly, it was pretty magical, bro.”
It’s a sentiment echoed by Patrick Quinn, a comedian who played two games with Sandler in 2019.
Quinn and her friends met up with the comedian in a park in the Mar Vista neighborhood of Los Angeles. After engaging him in a brief conversation at a water fountain, the group walked away as they did not want to disturb him.
Sandler caught them before they could get far and asked, “Do you mind if I play with you?” Moments later, Sandler was yelling plays on the court.
Quinn played against Sandler in one game and then they teamed up in the next. Sandler became competitive, putting his body against the players and boxing. His skills took Quinn by surprise.
“He’s essentially an influencer in other ways, I wouldn’t expect him to make these plays where it seems like you have to play a lot to do something like that,” Quinn said. “And he was nailing them.”
Sandler, as expected, sported bright colors and an oversized T-shirt, his signature style for pick-up games.
Quinn said Sandler’s outfit was captivating, highlighting his theory that the actor does it on purpose so “you don’t think he’s going to absolutely dominate the court.” But he did it that day.
“He was playing points, calling plays, taking shots. He was making no-look passes,” Quinn said. “I was creating shots and going up and down the court. I was up and down sweating, working a little bit… I was very impressed.”
Quinn had an open mic event in 20 minutes but didn’t want to stop playing with his idol. Sandler forced him off the court and warned him that events like these are the way Quinn would learn and grow.
Two years later, Quinn ran into Sandler at a coffee shop in Malibu, and when he mentioned that they had played together, Sandler remembered Quinn, calling him by name.
“It was really cool to see someone like that,” Quinn said. “And recognizing that someone like that, who is so great and synonymous with comedian and funny and blah, blah, blah, can also be so genuine and so kind.”
DJ FOSTER SHARED A similar experience with Sandler.
Foster, a former assistant athletic director at Aquinas College, a small private Catholic school in Grand Rapids, Michigan, played with Sandler in June 2019. Their game took place while the comedian was in Grand Rapids for a stop on his stand-up tour.
Two months before his visit to the city, the school’s athletic director received a call asking if Sandler and his team could play basketball at Aquinas. They did, and Sandler arrived to play with members of his team, including Jonathan Loughran, his longtime assistant.
They dressed for five games straight with Foster and others from the Aquinas athletic department. Foster played alongside Sandler and his team lost the first two games.
That’s when Sandler spoke up and told the team, “Come on, we have to win this,” according to Foster. And they did, winning the next three games to clinch the series.
Adam Sandler chose to play basketball in @AquinoCollege this afternoon before their show at Van Andel Arena tonight! Great day to be a saint! pic.twitter.com/hDL9bilk2g
“That fifth game was pretty competitive and we were trying to win it so we could brag and have that story to tell for the rest of our lives,” Foster said. “[Adam] “He definitely had a competitive side.”
What caught Foster’s attention about Sandler’s game is what Shaq and others highlighted: He knows the game and passes frequently.
When Foster and other members of Aquinas’ athletic department finished playing with Sandler, Foster introduced the comedian to his wife and the couple expressed their excitement at seeing him perform that night.
Sandler then asked the rest of the group if they had tickets to the show. Most didn’t… but not for long. Sandler passed along a phone number to contact one of his assistants and left a dozen floor-seating tickets at will for the group.
The Aquinas athletic department, including Foster and Ryan Bertoia, the school’s men’s basketball coach who was also in attendance, filled the first five rows of the crowd that night.
“The Adam that you see on late night talk shows and in all these interviews is the one we saw that day,” Foster said. “He’s just an average guy, a really good guy, complimentary… that made the experience even better.”
JOSHUA JACKSON WAS playing at an LA Fitness in Georgia in December 2019. Sandler arrived in similarly calm fashion, accompanied by some friends who wanted to play basketball. Jackson told ESPN that Sandler’s entrance froze time, punctuated by the comedian’s “alarming outfit.”
“I had to be wearing something from a decade ago. Like 3XL pants, a big and tall wrinkled shirt,” Jackson said. “I definitely had clothes that would fit a 6-foot-8 linebacker.”
But none of that mattered once the ball started bouncing.
Jackson, 31, teamed with Sandler for two 5-on-5 games. He stressed that he would “for sure” play with Sandler again, noting his high IQ. Jackson said he held up very well for his age, and described Sandler as a pass-first point guard.
There isn’t a single moment that emphasizes that more than Jackson’s viral post about When Jackson turned around, what looked like a rocket flew into his hands.
“I literally just turn around[ed] “It was around and it was in my bread basket,” Jackson said. “It was a perfect pocket pass.” I had to go up with that.”
He insists he didn’t know how Sandler executed the pass, one he described as super fast and perfect but “soft.”
Jackson said he has played basketball his entire life in different states and venues. To this day, there hasn’t been a pass that comes close to that.
“It’s still the best pass I’ve ever received in my life,” he said. “And I’m not saying that because I’m Adam Sandler.”
Nailing slick, no-look passes are among Sandler’s skills that seem to come second nature to him.
Luggage says he’s seen Sandler make behind-the-head passes. Jackson saw Sandler throw a behind-the-back bounce pass that he described as “pretty hot.” Foster said Sandler probably passes too much, but it complements his style of seeking to involve everyone.
Bertoia was also impressed with Sandler’s basketball skills.
“To me, from a basketball standpoint, he took the shots that were there,” he said. “He definitely tries to keep the ball moving… I would have liked to play with him.”
JACKSON CALLED SANDLER the most relatable celebrity he’s ever played with because he didn’t do it for show: Sandler wanted to stay in the moment.
Luggage recalled how when Sandler came to court, he didn’t say a peep. His only security guard was away. Even when his friend reacted loudly to seeing the comedian, Sandler remained humble, indicating his desire to play in the next game.
No one picked him up for another game after his team lost: too many people had shown up and formed teams. Sandler, probably anticipating a long wait, left.
“To be honest, I don’t even remember him leaving,” Luggage said. “I just remember he just wasn’t there.”
The comedian left as he arrived, without pomp or circumstance. In his wake, he left a growing legend, not that of a Hollywood comedian, but that of a mysterious basketball player who could show up at the local court dressed in baggy clothes and shouting “next one.
Edu Gaspar’s departure certainly took Arsenal by surprise. His resignation did not reach the club’s board of directors until Monday morning, according to sources familiar with the situation. The natural response will surely be to take your time. Unfortunately for Arsenal, time is the only resource that runs out quickly at Premier League clubs.
At first glance, it might be fair to suggest that the Gunners are ready to weather the storm. Whoever replaces the Brazilian will not have to undertake a radical restructuring of the first team. The outgoing sports director… He is expected to join Evangelos Marinakis’ group of clubs in a higher position and for a more generous wage package. — has largely addressed what he so memorably identified as the biggest problem for those in his position.
“When a player is 26 years old or older, has a big salary and is not performing, it is killing you,” he memorably said in 2022. “In the past, 80 percent of the squad had those characteristics and there was no possibility of no one had them.” buy them.” Arsenal are not without those players – they have not found clubs knocking on their doors for Oleksandr Zinchenko and Gabriel Jesus, for example – but they can make up for that with some of the game’s most valuable gems.
In fact, last year sports data experts at Twenty First Group rated Arsenal as the second most expensive team in sport. No wonder they have the likes of William Saliba and Bukayo Saka in their books. Having such talents has propelled Mikel Arteta’s side into Premier League contention, but their presence is a headache for anyone in Edu’s position. Woe to the man who lets such gems slip through his fingers!
From the moment these two signed new deals in the summer of 2023, the clock was ticking for their next extension. The same thing happens when you have players who could join almost any team in the world. The four-year deals for each were perhaps less than Arsenal would like, but when you get a commitment from players of the caliber of Saka and Saliba you don’t gamble about whether you can get another 12 months. Still, doesn’t it suddenly seem like 2027 is closer than Arsenal would like?
The looming presence of Real Madrid means it seems a question of when, not if, William Saliba’s future will become an annual Patrick Vieira-style referendum on the status of Arsenal. The case of Bukayo Saka could be different… He talks about Arsenal as “my club” and lights up when reminded that he is one of their captains. — but that’s not a hypothesis worth testing.
The fear for Arsenal comes when considering what happened when Liverpool lost their transformative sporting director in 2022. Michael Edwards’ departure heralded two years of drifting off the pitch before returning in the summer with Richard Hughes as their sporting director. By then the damage had already been done. In that time there were no news for the three emblematic players of Jurgen Klopp’s great team: Virgil van Dijk, Mohamed Salah and Trent Alexander-Arnold. It’s time for eyeballs to wonder, for Saudi Arabia and Real Madrid to prepare even more lucrative offers given that they may not have to pay Liverpool anything. A little organizational turbulence is enough, even in times of sporting success.
This summer there will be two years left for Saliba and Saka. It may be your last moment of maximum value. Certainly, if the lure of the Santiago Bernabéu is too strong for one of them, Arsenal need to know. They cannot afford to simply stay with the new sporting director or settle into a new structure that will dictate contract negotiations. Given that there will be no opportunity for a Manchester City-style transition (Hugo Viana will leave Sporting at the end of the season when Txiki Begiristain leaves), Arsenal will fight for a vacancy at the top of the club for several months. . Even a coach as active at the club as Arteta cannot negotiate contracts on the training ground.
Arsenal have long been aware of interest in Edu, with links to Nottingham Forest first emerging in the summer, but being prepared to act quickly is another matter. This could be good news for assistant sporting director Jason Ayto, who enjoys a very good reputation internally. When Arsenal set out to hire their first manager in 2019, a role initially reserved for Monchi, it was considered of great importance that any candidate have a working knowledge of Arsenal or the head coach’s methods. Five years later, similar criteria would not allow the creation of a deep fund.
Choosing the right candidate and doing so quickly is of utmost importance for Arsenal. As his title rivals can attest, getting the structure wrong can quickly lead to all sorts of contractual problems.
Gus Atkinson has been awarded the Bob Willis Trophy for England Player of the Year after a debut Test summer in which he collected 34 wickets and scored his first hundred.
Atkinson collected the award, voted for by members of the cricket Writers’ Club, at the Kia Oval on Tuesday. The annual awards ceremony also saw Shoaib Bashir named NV Play Young Player of the Year, the last winner of the CWC award dating back to 1950.
Sophie Ecclestone won the JM Finn Women’s cricket Award, while Ryana MacDonald-Gay was voted emerging cricketer. Liam Dawson, named men’s player of the year by the Professional Cricketers’ Association last month, claimed the County Championship prize.
“I was just hoping to make my Test debut for England, and to have the summer I’ve had, it’s a huge honor and to get this award at the end tops it all,” Atkinson said.
“My debut, obviously taking 12 wickets, was very special, and playing in Jimmy Anderson’s last Test was a huge honour. Probably my favorite moment was that century against Sri Lanka.”
Bashir has gone from virtual unknown to England’s first-choice spinner in the last 12 months, claiming three Test five-fors, including a winning spoils in the second Test against the West Indies at Trent Bridge. He picked up the prestigious CWC award for under-21 players earlier in the summer.
“Two years ago I didn’t have a county,” Bashir said. “It’s been really special. With a lot of hard work, I’m grateful to be able to play for my country. Long may this continue.”
“It was very special, the first time I played at Trent Bridge. For me, taking that last wicket and sealing the deal to make it 2-0 in the series, was one of the highlights of my season.”
Other winners of the CWC awards included England’s Physically Disabled opening batsman Brendon Parr, who received the Disabled Cricketer of the Year award from the Lord’s Taverners charity.
James Anderson and the cast of Tailenders took the Peter Smith Award for outstanding presentation of cricket to the public, and Derek Hodgson’s cricket Book of the Year was won by David Kynaston and Harry Ricketts for Richie Benaud Blue Suede Shoes.
cricket Writers’ Club president Dean Wilson said: “A huge congratulations to all our award winners, reflecting another fantastic year of cricket for all members of the media to cover.
“At a time of unprecedented change to the game on and off the field, there are too few opportunities to pause, reflect and honor the efforts of those who bring so much joy.
“Whether it’s the skill and cunning of Sophie Ecclestone and Shoaib Bashir, or the excellence of Gus Atkinson or Brendon Parr, there has been much to admire. Long may this continue.”
The European Court of Justice (CJEU) is the highest court in the European Union. Decisions regarding video games are few and far between. So when he governs, we hope the decision will be a game changer.
The ruling he issued on October 17, 2024 (ruling against Sony in a dispute over cheating provided through Datel’s Action Replay for PSP) seems like one at first glance. A second look shows that in most cases this will not change anything. The reason for this is that lawsuits against developers of cheating software, especially in online multiplayer games, are now based on violations of game developers’ EULAs and competition law.
The case of the ECJ, however, is different. These are the Action Replay PSP and Tilt FX PSP software, which gave superpowers to several games on Sony’s now almost forgotten Playstation Portable. Sony initially won an injunction in 2010 before the Hamburg Regional Court, as well as the case on the merits two years later. The trap producer filed an appeal and the decision was overturned nine years later, in 2021.

The German Federal Court of Justice then referred the case to the ECJ. National courts can do this if they have doubts about the interpretation of EU law. As a reminder: Germany’s Federal Supreme Court (Bundesgerichtshof) had already issued two rulings on cheating for World of Warcraft (as of October 6, 2016 – case I ZR 25/15, and as of January 12, 2017 – case I ZR 253/14).
When the German Federal Supreme Court brought the case to the ECJ, it is not because the judges have changed their minds and become friendly to cheaters in the meantime. It was because the relevant question of law was another. The question was whether Action Replay PSP and Tilt FX PSP infringe copyright even though they did not interfere with the source code or the software itself, but simply modified variables in the computer’s RAM. The CJEU held that this is not sufficient to constitute copyright infringement.
The issues that were relevant in the World of Warcraft cases simply weren’t on the table here (this could have something to do with the fact that Action Replay was taken to court almost 15 years ago, when it might not have been so clear what tools publishers have against cheating bots, and also with the fact that it is not about cheating in a multiplayer game).
For single-player game publishers looking to take action against cheating software, the European Court of Justice’s decision on Action Replay is not good news. According to the CJEU, playing games is not necessarily a copyright infringement if the game software is not touched.
For single-player game publishers who want to take action against cheat software, the ECJ Action Replay decision is not good news.
However, there are still some instruments left: for example, offering this type of cheating could still be an act of unfair competition. This aspect was only briefly discussed in the German Action Replay rulings, and not at all by the ECJ. This aspect is especially relevant for games monetized through microtransactions.
It might also be possible to validly agree in the EULAs that the game should not be used with cheat software. This aspect was only mentioned in a side note by the Advocate General in the Action Replay decision and, for procedural reasons, did not appear in the German decision or the ECJ decision. Finally, depending on the name of the cheat software, it may infringe trademarks or title rights.
Multiplayer game publishers will have less to worry about. Cheats for online multiplayer games have been declared illegal by numerous courts. One of the most famous cases is Bungie vs. AimJunkies. While this was decided in the US, there is no reason to assume that the outcome would have been different in the EU, either before or after Action Replay.
This has been confirmed by the German Federal Supreme Court in its two previous rulings on World of Warcraft, as have other courts. These two decisions are not questioned by the new CJEU decision, since the issue is different. From the perspective of most players, because World of Warcraft decisions are specifically for online multiplayer games.
Bungie’s legal dispute with AimJunkies has shown that numerous courts consider cheating for multiplayer games illegal.
One of the World of Warcraft decisions addressed the question of whether the manufacturers who had developed the cheat software had the right to use World of Warcraft for commercial purposes, that is, the development of the cheat software (which is a discussion based on copyright law). . The other decision revolved around the question of whether the impact of the respective hack on the game was an unfair interference and prevented Blizzard from presenting its game on the market in the form originally intended (this is an argument based on unfair competition law).
The first of these issues was not discussed in the Action Replay cases, and for the second, Sony did not present sufficient evidence. Therefore, publishers of online multiplayer games can still rely on established case law when acting against cheating software.
Additionally, there are many other aspects that may be relevant, depending on the details of the case at hand (such as complicity in copyright infringement by users who play the game in violation of the EULAs by using cheat software, circumvention of technological rights, protection measures or modification of the appearance of the game).
Publishers of online multiplayer games can still rely on established case law when taking action against cheating software.
Now, finally, did it matter that Action Replay was litigated in Europe and Bungie v. AimJunkies in the United States? Presumably not so much. The issues relevant to litigating against cheating robots in multiplayer games are essentially similar, although the legal traditions and procedure are different.
Publishers have a wide choice in taking these matters to court. Suing violators where they are may be a logical option. Facilitates the execution of judicial decisions against the offender. The geographical scope of the decisions of the court in which the offender is located is also potentially broader.
However, there could be other aspects to consider, for example how robust and fast the legal system is, or the respective costs. Germany, for example, has abundant case law and courts tend to quickly issue interim measures. In the United States, however, the procedures may be more expensive, but it may be easier to obtain that missing information through discovery. Therefore, there are many aspects to consider.

BCB has appointed Mohammad Salahuddin as senior assistant coach of the Bangladesh men’s team. His contract will run through March 15 next year, as will head coach Phil Simmons’. Salahuddin’s first assignment is likely to be Bangladesh’s tour of the West Indies, which begins with a four-day warm-up match in Antigua.
Salahuddin previously served as Bangladesh assistant and fielding coach under Dav Whatmore and Jamie Siddons. He also worked as a specialist coach at the BCB national cricket academy from 2010 to 2011 before becoming head coach of Singapore in 2014. He holds a Level 3 accreditation from ACC-cricket Australia.
Considered one of the most prominent voices in Bangladesh cricket, Salahuddin has had a contentious relationship with the BCB in recent years. He was appointed as batting consultant in 2017 only to change his decision at the last minute. He has often criticized the board’s position regarding pitching and selection.
Salahuddin is also highly regarded by most players in Bangladesh as he began his coaching career by developing players like Shakib Al Hasan and Tamim Iqbal when they were young. It also influences the growth of the current generation of cricketers like Jaker Ali and Mahidul Islam Ankon.
BCB president Faruque Ahmed said Salahuddin met several requirements for the position. In his first press conference as president of the board of directors, Faruque declared himself in favor of promoting Bangladeshi coaches.
“When I became BCB president, I was committed to providing opportunities to deserving candidates to contribute to the national team setup,” he said. “Salahuddin brings with him a wealth of experience, pedigree and knowledge, making him the ideal candidate for this position. I firmly believe that it is time to integrate more capable Bangladeshi coaches into the system.”

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — For a moment Monday night, Patrick Mahomes said he feared the worst. He had to be helped up after injuring his left ankle in the fourth quarter and for a few seconds he wondered if he could finish the Kansas City Chiefs’ game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
“It’s definitely scary,” Mahomes said later. “I think it hurt more just because it’s the same ankle I sprained last week, so it scared me a little bit.
“When you don’t know exactly what’s happening and you feel that sharp pain, you always fear the worst.”
Everything went well for Mahomes, who was able to stay in the game and threw another touchdown pass to put the Chiefs ahead. After the Bucs scored to send the game to overtime, Mahomes engineered a 10-play drive that ended with a 2-yard Kareem Hunt touchdown to give the Chiefs a 30-24 victory and an 8-0 record. .
Mahomes injured his right ankle in a 2022 playoff victory against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Coach Andy Reid pulled him from that contest over Mahomes’ protests and did not allow him to return until he had an x-ray.
This time, Reid again told Mahomes that he was leaving the game.
“I thought he was joking,” Mahomes said. “I thought, ‘Come on, we’re not doing this again.'”
Reid even went so far as to tell backup quarterback Carson Wentz to get ready.
“He’s a competitor,” Reid said of Mahomes. “I told him I was going to eliminate him and he probably wanted to fight me, so he’s a tough guy.”
Reid relented after Mahomes said the injury was not as serious as the 2022 postseason injury. Mahomes was also examined by doctors and had some mobility tests performed on the sidelines.
Mahomes said he would be ready to play in Sunday’s home game against the Denver Broncos.
Mahomes was injured on a non-contact play while throwing a touchdown pass to running back Samaje Perine.
“Obviously I was running toward the goal line and I was committed to running the ball and at the last second [passed to] Samaje, so I twisted my ankle a little bit awkwardly,” Mahomes said. “You feel the pain and it scares you. I’ve dealt with ankles before, but I just stayed there and as time went on the pain subsided.
“I just got back into it and got moving again and felt comfortable going out there.”
“The playoffs a couple of years ago was a little bit about how I got tackled,” he explained. “It got stuck and it hurt a lot more. [This time] I could move, I could still have mobility in my ankle and I still have it after this game. I’ll probably swell a little tomorrow. But with a short week, you come in, you take care of it and you’re ready to play the next week.”
Real Madrid will host Paulo Fonseca’s AC Milan in a clash between two of the teams with the greatest tradition of success in the UEFA Champions League. The Galacticos will be back in the sound with their The match against Valencia was suspended during the weekend and it will also be the first time that the big name of Real Madrid, Vinicius Jr., plays the next games, unusually losing the Ballon d’Or 2024. On the other hand, USMNT winger Christian Pulisic wants to provoke in one of the best-rated stadiums in the world. Here are our stories, how you’ll oversee the fit and more:
Workforce information
Real Madrid: This is the first time that Real Madrid will play again the next time they lose the last date of the Clásico and that is why Ancelotti is likely to find the best XI imaginable against his former club. Vinicius and Mabppe will play alongside Jude Bellingham and will aim for a victory against the Italian giants.

The IPL 2025 mega auction will be held on November 24 and 25 in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. It will be held overseas for the second consecutive year (2024 was in Dubai) and will coincide with the third and fourth day of the first test between India and Australia in Perth.
Unlike regular auctions, the mega auction which takes place every four years is spread over two days instead of just one and is one of the most followed events in cricket as all ten franchises in the IPL build their teams for the next three years (2025). -27).
On October 31, the deadline for teams to decide which of their players they would keep on their 2024 rosters, a total of 46 players were retained across the ten franchises. Sunrisers Hyderabad batsman and wicketkeeper Heinrich Klaasen was the most expensive retainer at INR 23 crore, while Virat Kohli (Royal Challengers Bengaluru) and Nicholas Pooran (Lucknow Super Giants) came in second at INR 21 crore. . But perhaps the highlight of the retention day was that Mumbai Indians retained all their big Indian players (Jasprit Bumrah, Suryakumar Yadav, Hardik Pandya, Rohit Sharma and Tilak Varma) for a total of Rs 75 crore.
Each team has a total purse of INR 120 crore to build their teams, but after retention, the Punjab Kings have the largest remaining purse (INR 110.5 crore) to spend in the mega auction, having retained only to two limitless players: Shashank Singh and Prabhsimran. Singh: For a total of INR 9.5 crores. Rajasthan Royals have the smallest purse of INR 41 crore after they, along with Kolkata Knight Riders, retained the maximum six players. KKR will have INR 51 crore to spend on the auction.
This time, the IPL has allowed teams to retain up to six players, of which a maximum of five can be limited and a maximum of two can be uncapped. The six players can be held directly before the auction, or can be bought back using Right-to-Match (RTM) options at the auction, or a combination of both.
If a player has been bought by another franchise in the mega auction, the franchise he was a part of in IPL 2024 can intervene at the end of the bidding process and buy back their player using the RTM option by matching the highest bid. After that, the franchise that made the winning bid will have another opportunity to increase the bid to whatever amount they want. In that case, the player’s former team will have to match the increased bid to buy back their player.
Having retained only two players, PBKS has the most RTM options (four) in the auction. RCB, who retained three players, have three, while Delhi Capitals, who retained four players, have two. Five teams (MI, Chennai Super Kings, Gujarat Titans, SRH and LSG) have retained five players each and have only one RTM option in the auction, while RR and KKR have no RTM options.
Of course, there is no limit to the number of players a franchise can buy back if they place the highest bids for them during regular bidding at the auction.
