What began as an interaction between men, according to LeBron James, resulted in a profane-laced tirade between player and fan during the Lakers' win in Atlanta on Monday night. A female fan seated courtside was ejected after the on-court officials stepped in and deemed the situation too distracting for players, specifically James. The woman later took her frustrations to her Instagram story after she was ejected and bashed James for cursing at her husband during the game. She claimed she was defending her spouse before things got heated with James, who she says shouted profanities at her which escalated the situation. Several times on Instagram, the woman called James inappropriate names during an expletive-driven rant about the Los Angeles Lakers superstar. "Courtside Karen was MAD MAD!!," James wrote on Twitter shortly after the game. Courtside Karen was MAD MAD!! ?????????????? — LeBron James (@KingJames) February 2, 2021 James was asked about the interaction that led to a … [Read more...] about LeBron James addresses fan’s tirade on Twitter

In the morning session of the fifth and final day of the first Test in Chennai, England pacer James Anderson scythed through the India batting order changing the scenario dramatically in his team’s favour with sensational spell during which he accounted for Shubman Gill, Ajinkya Rahane and Rishabh Pant. His performance has put England on the brink of a what will be counted among their famous wins if they achieve it. He first got one through the gates of Gill, who was looking good having struck a third fifty in only his fourth Test, and have him clean bowled. In the same over, he trapped vice-captain Ajinkya Rahane but the on-field umpire turned it down. However, off the very next delivery, he produced another peacher to knock off the stumps again and send Rahane back to the dressing room. And later, Pant, who has now become India’s saviour, was dislodged on 11. A dazzling display resulted in Anderson becoming one of the top trends on Twitter in India with fans hailing … [Read more...] about India vs England 2021: James Anderson Trends on Twitter After he Slices Through Virat Kohli’s Men in Chennai

Veteran pacer James Anderson and spinner Jack Leach bowled England to one of the greatest Test victories as they defeated India comprehensively by 227 runs in the first Test in Chennai on Tuesday. Anderson bowled an artistic spell of reverse swing as they trumped Virat Kohli’s show of grit as England registered their biggest win on India soil. A target of 420, with 381 left on the fifth day worn out Chepauk track, was always a tough ask going by cricketing logic and Anderson’s mid-morning burst blew away the Indian middle-order. In the end, the hosts could manage only 192 in 58.1 overs. Kohli (72 off 104 balls) seemed like a lonely general standing on a burning deck as he showed his colleagues how to bat on a difficult track. He covered the swing and shuffled towards the off-stump to counter Anderson, ran purposefully and scored his runs against spinners. But there was that one ball that was always going to keep low and he got that from Ben Stokes. Apart from Kohli, … [Read more...] about Twitter Reactions: Former Cricketers, Fans Hail England After Their Biggest Test Win on Indian Soil
