Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown has been rumored to be on the trade block for the past few weeks. However, NFL insider Peter Schrager provided an update on his situation.
During an appearance on the “Pat McAfee” show on Friday, Schrager shut down these rumors involving the trade of Brown. He said that the Eagles are not looking to part ways with the wide receiver. However, he also expects GM Howie Roseman to keep his ears open for the offers they get for him.
Thanks for the submission!

“At the trade deadline, Howie Roseman told everyone, ‘No, we’re not trading A.J. Brown.’” Schrager said. “And then, you got to this media availability. What he said was, of couse, I always listen. Like I said, A.J. Brown’s Twitter handle is always open. Howie Roseman is always listening.

“But I will also add this, he is not on the block by any means. They are not proactively trading A.J. Brown. They are not shopping Brown. But he (Roseman) will always have his phone line open. The issue is for the Eagles, if they trade him before June 1st, it cost them $40 million dollars in dead cap money. They trade him after June 1st, it gets a lot less financially prohibitive.”

The Tennessee Titans traded Brown to the Eagles back in 2022. He initially agreed to a four-year deal worth $100 million. In April 2024, they offered him a three-year extension worth $96 million.

Last season, the Super Bowl LIX champion recorded 1,003 yards on 78 receptions and seven touchdowns. However, Brown also made headlines because of a rumored rift in his relationship with quarterback Jalen Hurts. This triggered the rumor mill to churn about him potentiall parting ways with the Eagles.
NFL analyst discusses the reason why the Eagles are not trading A.J. Brown
On Friday, analyst Louis Riddick discussed a potential reason as to why the Eagles are not trading A.J. Brown. According to him, it is because other teams are not willing to offer them the trade value that they’re asking for.

“Look, they just need to. It just seems like they need to go their separate ways here,” Riddick said on ‘Get Up.’ “Look, there’s just too much smoke around this situation all the time. You have to make tough decision, this is one of those situations where I feel like that’s where it basically needs to go.
“I may be wrong, he maybe be on a football team in 2026, they may sau, ‘Look, we’re not going to get a fair value for this young man on the trade market, so we’re just going to keep him here regardless of how it looks from the outside.”
In seven seasons in the NFL, Brown has recorded 8,029 yards and 56 touchdowns receiving.
Willydoit, fresh off his New Zealand Derby triumph, will strive for entry into the Australian Cup during his Flemington engagement.
Stablemates Willydoit and Holymanz from the Ciaron Maher yard take on the Group 2 Blamey Stakes (1600m) come Saturday, both vying to improve their chances at greater autumn rewards.
Now on his second preparation with trainer Ciaron Maher, the gelding Willydoit awaits the form resurgence that clinched the Group 1 New Zealand Derby (2400m) at Ellerslie last March.
Jack Turnbull, Ciaron Maher’s national assistant trainer, explained the lessons absorbed regarding the four-year-old post his Sydney spring foray.

Resuming at Caulfield on February 7, Willydoit could only surpass one other in the MRC Foundation Cup (1600m), with blinkers reinstated following his ‘little plain’ first-up effort.
“When the race was run the way it was, it was brutally run, and with a horse like Light Infantry Man winning it, sitting second, it says a lot about the race shape,” Turnbull said.
“For him, who was back, no headgear, floating along, he just never got involved.
“His splits late were positive enough, but he should have done something because he did nothing for the first three-quarters.
Advertisement
“He’s had a couple of good gallops, he gets on the bigger track, the mile again, headgear on, there’s a lot more going his way this week.”
Willydoit stood out as a leading staying three-year-old with a fourth in last autumn’s Australian Derby (2400m) at Randwick, yet the team pursued premium spring races for him at four.
This involved ninth in The Golden Eagle succeeding a seventh place from the Alan Brown Stakes.
“He was a dominant staying three-year-old, but he’s not slow, so coming to Sydney last campaign, with the weights, we were willing to try him in the big features which didn’t work,” Turnbull said.
Advertisement
“A prep on, we know a bit more about him and I think 2000 (metres) will be his go.
“The Australian Cup is on the plan, but if he was not to fire at that class and weight scale, then there are races like the Mornington Cup, but we’ll just see, but his main early aim, after this run, is the Australian Cup.”
An ‘old marvel’ in Turnbull’s eyes, Holymanz freshened up before grabbing third last time in the MRC Foundation Cup.
“We could have gone to the All-Star Mile (next Saturday), but we’ve decided on the softer option to get him to be winning again,” Turnbull said.

“It’s not a race that’s out of his reach and if he can run up to his last run, he’ll be right up there again.”

GAA Rounders has officially secured its place at the top table of the association after an overwhelming vote at GAA Congress 2026.
Motion 2 — proposing the addition of a GAA Rounders representative to Ard Chomhairle — passed with a remarkable 98.3% in favour, with just 1.7% voting against. The motion was submitted by Old Leighlin (Carlow) and represents one of the most significant governance moments in the modern history of the sport.
Motion 2 passed at GAA Congress with 98.3% support, confirming a Rounders seat on Ard Chomhairle.
For the first time, GAA Rounders will have a direct voice in the room where the biggest decisions are made.
A long-awaited breakthrough
For decades, Rounders has operated under the GAA umbrella without direct representation at Central Council level. While the sport has grown steadily in participation and profile — particularly in recent years — its absence from Ard Chomhairle has often been viewed as a structural gap.
That gap is now closed.
Advertisement
The scale of the vote leaves little ambiguity. A near-unanimous endorsement from delegates signals strong support across the association for recognising Rounders as a fully embedded part of the GAA’s governance framework.
More than symbolic
While the motion itself is short in wording, its implications are substantial.
Having a Rounders representative on Ard Chomhairle ensures the sport will now have a direct voice in discussions around:
Governance and constitutional matters
Development funding and resources
Facilities and long-term planning
The strategic direction of the wider association
It also strengthens Rounders’ standing within the GAA ecosystem, particularly at a time when conversations around multi-code inclusion and representation continue to evolve.
A defining Congress moment
Congress 2026 features numerous debates across governance, championships and structural reform, but Motion 2 will stand out as a defining legacy decision.
Advertisement
Unlike many technical rule changes that shape competitions or administration, this vote directly alters the governance landscape of the association. It formally acknowledges Rounders’ place not just within the GAA family, but within its core decision-making structure.
A clear mandate
The strength of the vote matters.
Passing with 98.3% support, the motion moves beyond simple approval into clear mandate territory. It reflects not just acceptance but strong backing from the wider GAA membership.
For those involved in Rounders at club, county and national level, the result is both symbolic and practical — a recognition of the work done to grow the sport and a platform for further development in the years ahead.

What happens next
With the motion now passed, attention will turn to how the Rounders representative is selected and integrated into Ard Chomhairle structures — a process that will likely require formal constitutional and governance steps.
However, the direction is now clear.
For the first time in its history, GAA Rounders will have a seat at the main table of the GAA.

The pro whose freak accident led to multiple surgeries has released a statement thanking those who have reached out and said he has lots of hard work and rehab ahead as he now focuses on recovery.
Andrea Pavan, 36, fell three stories down an elevator shaft on Wednesday when the elevator doors opened, but no car was present. The news was first reported by Ryan French of Monday Q Info, and a GoFundMe created to support Pavan later explained more details.
Pavan, a two-time winner on the DP World Tour, was in South Africa to play this week’s Investec South African Open Championship when the accident happened at his private accommodation for the week.
“I would like to say a big thank you for all the kind words and wishes I have received over the last 48 hours,” Pavan said in a statement, which was released by the DP World Tour on Friday. “I had surgery on my shoulder and my back on Wednesday evening and I am currently recovering in [the] hospital.

“I now have a lot of rehab and hard work ahead of me, but the care I have received so far from the Mediclinic hospital staff has been incredible, as has the support from the DP World Tour, the Sunshine Tour and all their staff here in Stellenbosch. I am also very grateful for all the help Johann Rupert and his wife Gaynor have given me.
“The last two days have been difficult, but I am in very good hands and to have so many players, caddies and staff visit and contact me has meant a lot to me. Grazie mille everyone, from me, my wife Audra, and my entire family.”
The Italian pro was a member of Texas A&M’s NCAA championship team in 2009, and one of his former A&M teammates, Matt Van Zandt, created the GoFundMe to support Pavan, his wife and their three kids.
“Andrea has been part of many close-knit communities across the world, from his time at Texas A&M and the 12th man, to the world of professional golf between the PGA and DP World Tours,” Van Zandt wrote. “Now is the time that we come together and support him through this unexpected trial.”

Los Angeles FC will try to continue their perfect start under new head coach Marc Dos Santos on Saturday night when they visit a Houston Dynamo side that was among the busiest in MLS in terms of offseason transactions.
Dos Santos’ Black and Gold opened their regular season with a dominant 3-0 victory over Lionel Messi and Inter Miami on Feb. 21. On either side of that, LAFC (1-0-0, 3 points) defeated Real Espana in the first round of the CONCACAF Champions Cup, 6-1 away in the first leg in Honduras and 1-0 in the return fixture at home on Tuesday.
Denis Bouanga recorded four goals in an assist over those first two matches, and Son Heung-Min added four assists. Yet Dos Santos still decided to play the star duo for the first half of the return leg on Tuesday, despite being virtually assured of advancing.
“Rhythm,” he said. “Sonny didn’t have a perfect preseason, so it’s important that he keeps getting rhythm. And I told both Sonny and Denis this week that I would have them 45 minutes on the field, that at halftime we would make the changes. So they were aware of it.”
The Dynamo (1-0-0, 3 points) opened their regular season with a 2-1 home victory over the Chicago Fire on Feb. 21, coming from behind on a pair of goals from the Brazilian Guilherme Augusto in his MLS debut.

In addition to the 30-year-old former Santos captain, the Dynamo added former LAFC winger Mateusz Bogusz from Cruz Azul and brought back Hector Herrera from Toluca this winter to bolster a squad that finished 12th in Western Conference in 2025.
Herrera, 35, was previously part of the Houston side that reached the 2023 West final. He has yet to see the field in his return.
Houston manager Ben Olsen suggested his new-look side’s second test could be a lot more difficult than the first. It also might be a good measuring stick.

“A team that is as good as, I think, any team in league history in how they transition and the quality they have in the attack,” Olsen said of LAFC. “We’ll have our work cut out for us, but I think it’s a challenge that this group is very excited about.”
The two teams have split the past five meetings, with each side winning twice and playing to one scoreless draw.
Nigeria international Terem Moffi scored his first goal for FC Porto on Friday night to seal a 3-1 win over Arouca in the Primeira Liga.
The Super Eagles striker came off the bench to score late at the Estádio do Dragão, handing coach Francesco Farioli a welcome selection headache ahead of an important run of matches in Europe.
Moffi joined Porto on loan from OGC Nice on 30 January 2026 but had to wait for his chance. The 26-year-old had started three league matches without finding the net, playing behind Deniz Gül in the pecking order.

In Friday’s Matchday 24 clash, Porto were in control before Nais Djouahra pulled one back for the visitors to make it tense. William Gomes restored the home side’s lead from the penalty spot in the 90th minute.
Deep into stoppage time, Moffi made sure of the result. He met a cross from Gomes inside the box and fired a powerful shot into the roof of the net to put the game beyond doubt.
Porto later confirmed the moment on their official X account, describing it as “Terem Moffi’s first goal in our colours.”

The goal could prove important in more ways than one. Porto are battling strongly in the Liga Portugal title race, and every point is vital at this stage of the season.
With Samu Aghehowa currently out injured, Moffi’s sharp finish showed what he can bring to the team — strength, intelligent movement and calmness in front of goal.
Porto will return to action in the UEFA Europa League Round of 16 in two weeks, and Moffi’s timely breakthrough gives Farioli more options as the club chase success both at home and in Europe.

The NFL Combine is upon us, so now seems as good a time as any to put out an NFL mock draft.
This year’s draft is not quarterback heavy, which could lead to a much more wide-open first round than we’ve seen in recent years. Here is how I see the first round of the 2026 NFL Draft playing out as of February 27.
1. Las Vegas Raiders: QB Fernando Mendoza, Indiana
The Raiders are playing coy about how they’re going to go about this draft, but if they keep this pick, there doesn’t seem to be much mystery here. Fernando Mendoza just won a Heisman Trophy and national championship, and now, he’s going to be the first overall pick of the NFL Draft.
2. New York Jets: LB/EDGE Arvelle Reese, Ohio State
The Jets have plenty of holes on defense that need to be plugged, particularly after parting ways with both Sauce Gardner and Quinnen Williams. Arvelle Reese is a versatile defender who can rush the passer and step back into coverage, so New York can fix a couple problems with one selection here.

3. Arizona Cardinals: OT Francis Mauigoa, Miami
If the Cardinals are going to keep Kyler Murray healthy this season, they will need to reinforce their offensive line. Francis Mauigoa has great NFL size and strong instincts in pass protection that should make him an instant starter alongside Paris Johnson.
4. Tennessee Titans: EDGE Rueben Bain, Miami
It’s back-to-back Hurricanes off the board, and this time, the Titans take Rueben Bain to create a formidable duo with Jeffery Simmons on their defensive front.
5. New York Giants: OT Spencer Fano, Utah
Jermaine Eluemunor is heading into free agency this spring, which could leave a hole at right tackle for the New York Giants to fill. Spencer Fano has spent the past two seasons at that position for the Utah Utes, so this should be a pretty seamless transition.
Advertisement
6. Cleveland Browns: OT Monroe Freeling, Georiga
The top end talent is limited at the offensive tackle position, and while Cleveland has another pick at No. 24, they jump at the chance to pick up one of the better left tackles in this class before it gets too late.
7. Washington Commanders: CB Mansoor Delane, LSU
The Commanders need to see some improvement on defense, and Mansoor Delane is my top cornerback in this draft class. He’s got elite coverage skills on the boundary and very well could go even higher in this draft if a team opts to prioritize their secondary rather than offensive line.
8. New Orleans Saints: RB Jeremiyah Love, Notre Dame
The Alvin Kamara era inevitably is coming to an end in New Orleans in the next couple years, but until then, the Saints will have a very formidable 1-2 punch out of the backfield to help support QB Tyler Shough by taking the dynamic Jeremiyah Love.
9. Kansas City Chiefs: WR Carnell Tate, Ohio State
The Chiefs are going to feel stung if Love goes off the board right ahead of them, but they get a great wide receiver for Patrick Mahomes to throw to. Carnell Tate is the most sure-handed receiver in this draft class, and at 6’3″, he is a big target who can eat up space on his routes.
Advertisement
10. Cincinnati Bengals: S Caleb Downs, Ohio State
The Bengals have a strong offense as long as Joe Burrow stays healthy, but the defense is in desperate need of reworking. Caleb Downs is an elite safety project who can do just about anything, and he’s a good start towards revamping the secondary.
Ohio State Buckeyes defensive back Caleb Downs (2) celebrates during the NCAA football game against the Michigan Wolverines at Michigan Stadium in Ann Arbor, Mich. on Nov. 29, 2025. Ohio State won 27-9.
11. Miami Dolphins: CB Avieon Terrell, Clemson
The Dolphins could be moving on from Tua Tagovailoa, which would make this a rebuilding year for Miami. This wasn’t a good team in any category during 2025, but they really need to improve the secondary.
12. Dallas Cowboys: EDGE David Bailey, Texas Tech
Dallas stays in the state of Texas here by picking up David Bailey. After trading away Micah Parsons, they need a new future off the edge, and they hope they found a cornerstone here.
13. Los Angeles Rams (via ATL): CB Jermod McCoy, Tennessee
As long as Jermod McCoy is fully healthy, he is worthy of being a first-round pick. The NFL Combine will be a great opportunity for him to prove that.
14. Baltimore Ravens: WR Makai Lemon, USC
The Baltimore Ravens do it again. A top end talent at a position of need falls right into their lap, and they stop the Makai Lemon fall.
Advertisement
15. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: LB Sonny Styles, Ohio State
It’s another Buckeye off the board. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers need a springy off-ball linebacker who can cover receivers while also being a physical run stopper. Sonny Styles checks those boxes.
16. New York Jets: DT Peter Woods, Clemson
Quinnen Williams is no longer around, so the Jets reset by taking a top defensive tackle prospect after grabbing Arvelle Reese with the second overall pick. New York has a brand new defensive front to build around.
17. Detroit Lions: EDGE Cashius Howell, Texas A&M
The Lions have a chance to create a strong duo on their defensive front with Aidan Hutchinson, and they do exactly that with the selection of Cashius Howell.
18. Minnesota Vikings: DT Caleb Banks, Florida
The Minnesota Vikings need to find answers at their defensive tackle position after striking out in free agency last year. Caleb Banks can do everything in the trenches, and he’ll be a fun piece for Brian Flores to utilize.
Advertisement
19. Carolina Panthers: EDGE Keldric Faulk, Auburn
The run of defensive front prospects continues as the Panthers try to build their pass rush around Keldric Faulk, who possesses some great athleticism off the edge.
20. Dallas Cowboys (via GB): S Emmanuel McNeil-Warren, Toledo
Quinyon Mitchell immediately turned into one of the best cornerbacks in the NFL, and now, there is another high-end Toledo defensive back available in Emmanuel McNeil-Warren. Dallas jumps at the chance to shore up their secondary.
21. Pittsburgh Steelers: WR Jordyn Tyson, Arizona State
The Steelers need a true WR2 behind DK Metcalf. While Jordyn Tyson has some injury concerns, he is a silky smooth route runner with great speed to give Pittsburgh a different look at the wide receiver position.
22. Los Angeles Chargers: IOL Olaivega Ioane, Penn State
Jim Harbaugh’s influence continues in LA. With Rashawn Slater and Joe Alt being anchors at the tackle positions, the Chargers still need to figure things out on the interior. Olaivega Ioane is a start.

23. Philadelphia Eagles: TE Kenyon Sadiq, Oregon
Dallas Goedert might not be back in Philadelphia, which offers the Eagles a chance to get younger at the tight end position. Kenyon Sadiq is a great pass catcher at the position and could become the replacement.

24. Cleveland Browns (via JAX): WR Denzel Boston, Washington
Quarterback remains a problem in Cleveland, but there isn’t really an option worth taking here at No. 24. Instead, they build up their wide receiver room with Denzel Bostom.
25. Chicago Bears: DT Christen Miller, Georgia
The Bears have Gervon Dexter, but they need someone else in the middle of their defensive line to help stop the run. Christen Miller can help in that department.
26. Buffalo Bills: WR Elijah Sarratt, Indiana
Elijah Sarratt won’t blow anyone away with his speed, but he is about as precise a route runner as there is in this class. Buffalo has a severe need at wide receiver, and Sarratt is a high floor prospect who can immediately contribute.
27. San Francisco 49ers: EDGE Zion Young, Missouri
Wide receiver is a need for the 49ers here, but with both Nick Bosa and Mykel Williams recovering from torn ACLs, they add another pass rushing presence to the group with Zion Young.
Advertisement
28. Houston Texans: DT Kayden McDonald, Ohio State
The Texans will put off adding a running back until later in the draft, allowing them to add another piece to a defense that was already elite in 2025. Kayden McDonald provides insurance for a defensive tackle room that could see a lot of faces depart in free agency.
29. Los Angeles Rams: CB Keith Abney, Arizona State
The Rams have three cornerbacks entering free agency this offseason. Odds are they will need to fill a hole at that spot.
30. Denver Broncos: LB CJ Allen, Georgia
The Broncos will be looking to get a bit younger at linebacker this offseason, and CJ Allen is a solid player in coverage who can add some dynamic athleticism to this team.
31. New England Patriots: OT Kadyn Proctor, Alabama
If there is one thing that is certain following the Super Bowl, the Patriots need to get better at protecting Drake Maye in 2026. Kadyn Proctor is a mammoth of a human being at 6’7″ and 366 pounds, and he’ll create a dynamic tackle duo with Will Campbell.
Advertisement
32. Seattle Seahawks: WR KC Concepcion, Texas A&M
If Rashid Shaheed leaves in free agency, the Seahawks will need to find a way to fill that speedy void that really made a difference for them on offense and special teams. KC Concepcion returned two punts for touchdowns in 2025 while being a deep threat on offense for the Aggies.

Rehan Ahmed intends to “keep enjoying the ride” as he insisted he is “not too bothered” about hanging on to his England place for their T20 World Cup semi-final.
The 21-year-old warmed the bench during England’s campaign until being called upon for their final Super 8 match against New Zealand, preferred to Jamie Overton on a slow, turning wicket in Colombo.
On his World Cup debut, the leg-spinning all-rounder took two for 28, including a wicket with his first delivery, before a seven-ball 19 not out helped England snatch victory from the jaws of defeat.
England now have a decision to make about whether to stick with Rehan or bring back fast bowler Overton ahead of a probable showdown against either India or the West Indies in Mumbai next Thursday.
There may even be a case to play both – which would likely mean sacrificing a batter, such as the out-of-form Jos Buttler – but Rehan will defer to head coach Brendon McCullum and captain Harry Brook.
Advertisement
“I’m not too bothered about my place in the team,” Rehan said. “I think Baz and Brooky will definitely put out the best team they think is going to win, as they did (on Friday night).
“I just want to make an impression whenever I do get the chance. I know the team balance right now is great and that’s why we are where we are. I’m very easy.
“It’s not a personal thing for me, it’s a World Cup, it’s my first World Cup to be in. I’ll just keep enjoying the ride, if I get the nod I’ll play and if not then I’ll give water to the boys.”
v Sri Lanka, Pallekele, February 22 – won by 51 runs
v Pakistan, Pallekele, February 24 – won by two wickets
v New Zealand, Colombo, February 27 – won by four wickets
Despite topping their group after beating Sri Lanka, Pakistan and New Zealand, England will only discover their fate for the knockout stages on Sunday following results in the other pool.
If South Africa overcome Zimbabwe then England will be at the Wankhede Stadium to take on defending champions India or the Windies, who defeated Brook’s side at the same venue two-and-a-half weeks ago.
Advertisement
England, though, have lost just twice under Brook’s captaincy in 18 T20s, a remarkable statistic given the unpredictable nature of the format, and they showed their mettle against the Black Caps.
Needing 42 off the last 17 balls, Rehan thumped his second delivery over the rope before a clutch six off Mitchell Santner allowed Will Jacks to seal a scarcely credible four-wicket win in the last over.
Rehan, England’s youngest debutant across all three formats, admitted he embraced the pressure after being asked whether he felt stressed about the situation the team was in.
“Cricket’s a privilege and you train all your life for the moments like that,” Rehan said.
Advertisement
“I was just happy to be in that moment. I was very, very happy when I did get the chance to try and win a game for England, not more so for me personally, just to win a game.
“I think stress is the wrong word for it. Obviously there’s pressure on, but then it’s a happy place. If you do it well then it would be good for you. It’s more of a free hit for me.
“I went out there with no intentions of looking at the scoreboard. It was trying to hit three or four sixes, I got two away and Jacksy did the rest.”
In Scary Shawarma Kiosk: The Anomaly, you work as an employee in a shawarma stall and try to survive various anomalies and anomalous events. The recent Weather Update introduced multiple threats to catch the players offguard during their nightly shift. Among them, the Vampire is a special entity that spawns only during a blood moon and summons bats inside your kiosk.
Instead of ordering any food, the Vampire immediately attacks the player after finding fault with their service. This guide helps you prepare and deal with the threat in Scary Shawarma Kiosk: The Anomaly.
When does the Vampire appear in Scary Shawarma Kiosk: The Anomaly?
The moon turns crimson before the Vampire’s arrival (Image via Roblox)
The Vampire spawns the moment the moon turns red in the game. This can happen at any time, be it in the Story or the Endless mode, and you can see the moon on the right window in your stall.

During the blood moon, a man wearing a belted trench coat and a black hat spawns in front of your stall. This man, who is the Vampire, is surrounded by a mystical mist. Its sudden appearance, the blood moon, and the mist are sufficient indicators that the customer is an anomaly.
The Vampire asks for “anything red to drink” instead of making a proper order. When you offer a Soda, the entity becomes furious and unleashes a swarm of bats. These creatures will keep flying around in the kiosk, while you will be tasked with killing them individually.
How to make the Vampire go away in Scary Shawarma Kiosk: The Anomaly?

Rather than focusing on the bats summoned by the Vampire, prioritize dealing with the main threat. Immediately shut down the shutter of your stall while the bats try to block your vision. You can do so by clicking the red button.
Once the shutter is closed, the Vampire threatens to take revenge on you. However, after a few seconds, he disappears from the front of your stall, leaving only a mist. You can open the shutter again to make the bats go away.

Similar to the Wild Deer, the new anomaly is harmless and easily avoidable. Safely dealing with it does give you any kind of badge, though.
Pakistan’s Shaheen Shah Afridi celebrates with teammates (AP/PTI)
Former India opener Virender Sehwag has bluntly dismissed Pakistan’s chances of reaching the semi-finals of the T20 World Cup 2026, stating he does not see Salman Ali Agha’s side pulling off the required miracle.Pakistan are still mathematically alive in the race for the last four, thanks to England’s Super 8 victory over New Zealand in Colombo on Friday. However, their inferior net run rate leaves them with a steep climb. Even if they defeat Sri Lanka, they would only draw level with New Zealand on points unless they secure a massive win to overhaul the Black Caps’ net run rate.
T20 World Cup: Shaheen Shah Afridi press conference after England vs Pakistan
The qualification equation is daunting. If Pakistan bat first and post 160, they must win by at least 65 runs. If they are chasing the same total, they need to finish the job within 13.2 overs to move ahead of New Zealand and seal a semi-final berth.During a discussion on Cricbuzz, when the anchor outlined Pakistan’s scenario if they batted first, Sehwag responded bluntly, “Nahi hone wala. Aage padh (It won’t happen, read further).”When the focus shifted to the possibility of chasing, Sehwag was equally dismissive. “Wo bhi nahi hone wala. (This too won’t happen).”He elaborated further on the show, saying, “It won’t happen, that’s what I was saying. It is not that easy for Pakistan. The prayers might have been accepted for the England-New Zealand match. But the prayers won’t work for Pakistan in the game against Sri Lanka. They have been praying for so long, and it has not worked. So I don’t think this is possible,” Sehwag said further on Cricbuzz.Sehwag added that Pakistan’s only realistic route would involve Sri Lanka playing extremely poorly, effectively handing them the game. He questioned how a team struggling to reach 160 consistently could suddenly chase that target at breakneck speed.“If they somehow qualify, very good. If they score 160 and then win by 60 runs, Sri Lanka would have to play some poor cricket. They would need to be bowled out for 90, which is not possible. Chasing the total down in 13.2 overs is possible, but their batting is not like that,” he added.“Pakistan are anyway not able to score 160, how will they chase the total down in 14 overs? It will be tough,” he added.England have already secured top spot in Group 2 of the Super 8 stage and booked their place in the semi-finals. The remaining qualification spot from the group will be decided between Pakistan and New Zealand.
Manchester United are reportedly ‘concerned’ about losing Harry Maguire on a free transfer at the end of the season
Manchester United are reportedly ‘concerned’ about the potential departure of Harry Maguire, following the confirmed exit of Casemiro. Maguire’s current contract with United is due to end after this season, and speculation continues to swirl regarding whether the England international will agree to an extension.
United activated an additional 12-month clause in Maguire’s contract in January of last year, which is now set to expire at the end of the current campaign.

Maguire, 32, has spent a significant part of the season recovering from injury but has emerged as a crucial figure in United’s defence since Michael Carrick took over as interim head coach last month.
The England international, who celebrates his 33rd birthday next week, is currently free to discuss a pre-contract agreement with clubs outside England, should he wish to depart United as a free agent. He has already rejected advances from Saudi Pro League club Al Qadsiah, who are managed by Brendan Rodgers, and AC Milan this year.
While a new deal is yet to be agreed, a Daily Mail report claims there is “concern” within United that they may lose Maguire at the same time as Casemiro, with the Reds keen to retain their experienced players, reports the Mirror.
Earlier this season, Casemiro confirmed he would be leaving United at the end of his contract this summer, a move that will save the Reds millions of pounds.
Casemiro is currently earning £300,000 per week at United, and not handing the midfielder a contract renewal on the same terms will result in the club saving £15.6million annually.
What happens with Maguire’s future remains uncertain, with United reportedly eager to offer the defender fresh terms but seeking to reduce his £ 180,000-per-week salary. The England international, though, is seeking assurances regarding contract duration, which could present an obstacle.

Carrick has already highlighted Maguire’s significance to his vision at United, stressing the defender’s experience and leadership both in the dressing room and during matches.
“Harry’s an impressive character,” Carrick stated on Friday. “He’s had a great career so far. Hopefully there’s a lot more to come.
“He has been here in the journey and the experiences that he’s had, certainly since he’s been here and with England as well. I think it shows exactly what he is.
“I think we all know the player that he is and what he’s capable of doing. Again, the other night there [at Everton], I thought he was fantastic.

“Experience helps and his attributes help with that and his character, his willingness to put himself out there and he is really impressive and he has been really important for us.”
