No 2 seed too good for British hopeful in quarter-finalSpaniard will face Fritz in semi after 6-2, 6-3, 6-3 victoryTwo days after his bruising five-set win over Nicolás Jarry and the Chilean’s subsequent criticisms of his frequent cheering, Cameron Norrie immediately made it clear that he would remain true to himself even in the face of one of the greatest young talents his sport has ever seen. After starting his day against Carlos Alcaraz with a positive hold in the opening game, Norrie punctuated that small win with a loud, booming cheer.Although Norrie was angling for a tight tussle, the stratospheric quality presented by his legendary opponent across the net, Alcaraz, ensured that he did not stand a chance. Alcaraz completely laid waste to the last British player standing at Wimbledon with the force of his devastating, astonishingly complete game, effortlessly dismantling Norrie 6-2, 6-3, 6-3 to return to the Wimbledon semi-finals.

India’s new captain was given chance to dictate the second Test and has shown he is one to take over as era of Fab Four wanesTwo games into the series we have already witnessed something very special from Shubman Gill. In the second Test at Edgbaston he produced a real rarity: an individual performance that defines and dominates a game. Not just piling on the runs but forcing his opponents to toil in the field until they felt exhausted and out of options, and that fatigue then had an impact on their batting.When batters get tired it affects their mental clarity and their decision-making – what to play, when to leave – as well as their movement and their footwork. Reducing England to 25 for three at the end of the second day went a long way to deciding the match. As well as India bowled with the new ball it was Gill’s remorselessness that created the conditions for it to happen. Continue reading...

So why do some go wrong – and what can be done to prevent it?“Friendships of over six years were broken overnight,” Rosa* says of the sudden, dramatic dissolution of her book club in Victoria, Australia some months ago. What started as a chance to share notes on the finer points of dramatic literature had become a real-life drama.The book club had been an important fixture of Rosa’s calendar for several years and, like many others, was hosted on rotation in the homes of different members each month. Although its primary purpose was discussing books, Rosa felt it was equally about socialising, and members were encouraged to dress up in outfits relating to the month’s book, with prizes for the best dressed.
