🗞 Where does it end?
G'day sports fans,

🏏 Usman Khawaja hit a resolute century to give Australia the better of the first day of the fourth Test against India.
The opener batted all day for 104 not out from 251 balls, only the second century of a series dominated by spin.
On a flatter surface in Ahmedabad, his total, plus Cameron Green's 49 not out, helped the tourists close on 255-4.
Khawaja reached his century in the last over of the day, capping a solid start to the Test from Australia as they seek a victory in order to draw the series 2-2. (REPORT)

🏉 The Panthers chalked up their first win of the season in a 16-10 victory over the Rabbitohs on Thursday night, but an injury suffered by Nathan Cleary soured the result.
"They (the medical workers) didn't seem too worried at half-time after they looked at it," Might be a good time for a bye next week" - Ivan Cleary said.
Post match, an emotional Jason Demetriou called for life bans for anyone found guilty of racist abuse after a spectator was ejected in Penrith for allegedly aiming a racist slur at Rabbitohs superstar Latrell Mitchell.
"It's not the first time we've come here (to Penrith) as a club and our players have been racially abused, where does it end? It's just not on."
