Ravi Shastri's advice to Simone Biles
After coaching the Indian cricket team to greater heights, Ravi Shastri's turned his gaze to other sports, and he has sage advice on mental health and wellbeing for Simone Biles who just withdrew from the Olympics, and a shout-out to Naomi Osaka as well.
Take your time @Simone_Biles. You have earned the right to owe it to yourself at this tender age. 48 hours or 48 days it might take. Just do it Champion. You owe no explanation to no one. @naomiosaka, you too. God bless you girls #Olympics pic.twitter.com/wMS7eV1UlX

Mitchell Santner's high school reunion
Mitchell Santner stopped by his high school with the WTC mace and was reunited with his Hamilton Boys' first XI coach Chris Kuggeleijn. Kuggeleijn also presented Santner with the ICC World Test Championship medal in front of what seemed like a tough crowd - those kids at the back don't seem particularly impressed.

Stuart Broad recalls epic Atherton-Donald duel
Stuart Broad remembers watching Mike Atherton face down a lethal Allan Donald at Trent Bridge in 1998. England won after Atherton made an unbeaten 98, batting nearly six hours and facing plenty of intimidatory deliveries from Donald, who wasn't pleased Atherton hadn't been given out after gloving the ball to the keeper when on 27.
I was there, as a 12 year old, watching in Awe in the Radcliffe Road End https://t.co/LFWai2pjCq

Also- a reminder that players didn't "Walk" in 1998 either hey @Athersmike https://t.co/LFWai2pjCq
