Ronaldo Shines at Al-Awwal Park, Leads Al-Nassr to 2-0 Win
Cristiano Ronaldo continues to shine with exceptional form, scoring back-to-back braces in consecutive matches to secure wins for his team. The Portuguese star’s brilliance helped Al-Nassr secure a 2-0 victory against Damac in their latest Saudi Pro League encounter. Previously, Ronaldo had scored twice against Al-Gharafa in an AFC Champions League match.
On Friday, November 29, Al-Nassr faced Damac at King Saud University's Al-Awwal Park. Ronaldo opened the scoring in the 17th minute after Abdelkader Bedrane committed a foul inside the box, earning a yellow card. The Portuguese star converted the penalty without mistake, giving the home team a 1-0 lead before halftime.
In the second half, Damac pushed hard for an equalizer but was reduced to 10 men in the 56th minute. Al-Nassr doubled their lead in the 79th minute when Ronaldo scored from close range after receiving a teammate's pass.
Ronaldo was named the man of the match for his brace, making it three consecutive matches where he has earned the honor. The 39-year-old now boasts 915 career goals, with 42 goals in 50 matches this year.
Al-Nassr currently sits third in the Saudi Pro League standings with 25 points from 12 matches. Al-Ittihad leads the table with 30 points, followed by Al-Hilal with 28 points from the same number of games.

Shakib Takes Test to Clear Bowling Action Doubts
Nearly two decades after his debut in international cricket, Shakib Al Hasan played in the English County Championship to prepare for the Test series against India. The world's top all-rounder showcased brilliant performances with the ball during his county stint.
However, shortly afterward, umpires raised concerns about his bowling action, asking him to undergo a test. In response, Shakib took the test to prove his action was flawless.
On Monday, December 2, Shakib underwent a bowling action assessment at the medical department of Loughborough University in Birmingham. Under the supervision of specialists, he bowled a total of four overs. Reports indicate that he bowled the first three overs at a relatively higher pace, reducing his speed in the final over.
The results of the test are expected within seven days. Shakib remains optimistic that no irregularities will be found in his bowling action.
In September, Shakib played a match for Surrey in the County Championship, delivering an impressive performance with the ball. He bowled 63 overs across two innings and claimed nine wickets. However, his bowling action in that match sparked scrutiny.
Notably, since starting his international career in 2006, Shakib has played 447 international matches and taken 712 wickets, without ever facing questions about his bowling action. If he clears this test, Shakib will have no restrictions on playing any level of cricket in England.
Bangladesh Ends 15-Year Drought with Test Win in West Indies
Bangladesh started their two-match Test series against the West Indies with a defeat. However, thanks to Taijul Islam's brilliant spin bowling, they achieved a historic Test win in the Caribbean after 15 years.
On Tuesday (December 3), Bangladesh clinched a commanding 101-run victory in the second Test at Sabina Park, Kingston, Jamaica. With this win, the Tigers ended the series in a 1-1 draw.
Match Highlights:
After suffering a heavy defeat in the first Test, Bangladesh captain Mehidy Hasan Miraz opted to bat first in the second and final Test. In their first innings, Bangladesh was bowled out for 164 runs, with opener Shadman Islam scoring the highest, 64 runs.
In response, the West Indies were bundled out for 146 runs, thanks to Nahid Rana's five-wicket haul, giving Bangladesh an 18-run lead.
In their second innings, Bangladesh managed 268 runs, largely due to a valiant effort from Zakir Ali, who missed his century by just 9 runs. He scored a remarkable 91 runs, which included five sixes and eight fours. Shadman contributed 46 runs, while Mehidy added 42. This set the West Indies a challenging target of 287 runs.
Defending the target, Taijul Islam and Taskin Ahmed gave Bangladesh an early advantage by taking two quick wickets, leaving the hosts at 57 for 2. Although West Indies skipper Kraigg Brathwaite (43) and Keacy Carty (14) showed some resistance, Taijul dismissed them to bring Bangladesh back into the game. Another notable performance came from Kevam Hodge, who scored 55, but his efforts were in vain.
The rest of the West Indies lineup collapsed under pressure, with Taijul taking a five-wicket haul. The Caribbean team was bowled out for 185 runs in 50 overs. Taskin Ahmed and Hasan Mahmud contributed with two wickets each.
Bangladesh’s Achievements:
This victory surpasses Bangladesh's success in 2009 when they won two Test matches on West Indies soil. It also marks their third Test win of the year, including a historic whitewash of Pakistan in their own backyard. This has been Bangladesh's best performance in any ICC Test Championship cycle so far.
Brief Scores:
Bangladesh 1st Innings: 164
West Indies 1st Innings: 146
Bangladesh 2nd Innings: 268
West Indies 2nd Innings (Target 287): 185 all out (50 overs)

This victory symbolizes a significant milestone in Bangladesh’s cricketing journey and highlights their growing stature in Test cricket.
Rangpur Riders in Global Super League Final
Rangpur Riders secured their second consecutive win in the Global Super League, earning a spot in the final with a 23-run victory over Lahore Qalandars in a rain-affected match.
Batting storms from Soumya Sarkar and Saif Hassan, followed by a spin masterclass from Mehedi Hasan, helped propel Rangpur to victory under the DLS method.
After losing the first two matches of the tournament, Rangpur bounced back with two straight wins, climbing to second place in the standings. This earned them a place in the final, where they will face table-toppers Victoria Cricket.
Due to multiple rain delays, the match between Rangpur Riders and Lahore Qalandars was reduced to just 9 overs. Batting first, Rangpur got off to a flying start thanks to their openers. However, the opening partnership was broken when Soumya Sarkar was dismissed for 22 runs from 13 balls, including 3 fours and 1 six.
After Soumya's departure, Saif Hassan took charge, continuing the aggressive batting. At the end of their 9 overs, Rangpur had reached 85/1, with Saif remaining unbeaten on 27 from 14 balls. Steven Taylor supported him well, scoring 32 runs from 27 balls.
Although Rangpur finished with 85 runs in 9 overs, Lahore's target was revised to 111 runs under the DLS method. However, Lahore's chase collapsed in the very first over bowled by Mehedi Hasan. The Pakistani team lost 3 wickets in that over, and Mehedi struck again in his next over, claiming a fourth wicket. Lahore were reduced to 14/4.
Mehedi Hasan, who bowled two overs, finished with impressive figures of 3 wickets for 11 runs, destroying Lahore's middle order. In the end, Lahore Qalandars could only manage 87 runs for the loss of 7 wickets, giving Rangpur a 23-run victory and securing their place in the final.

Rangpur Riders Clinch Historic Global Super League Title
Rangpur Riders had a rocky start to the Global Super League tournament, losing their first two matches in a row. However, they made a stunning comeback to reach the final.

Overcoming those uncertainties, the Bashundhara Group-owned team excelled in the final. They clinched the tournament's maiden title by defeating Victoria by 56 runs.
In the final held on Saturday (December 7), Rangpur set a target of 179 runs after batting first. In response, Victoria was bowled out for 122 runs with 11 balls to spare, handing Bangladesh’s representatives a 56-run victory.
Harmeet Singh led the bowling attack for Rangpur Riders with 3 wickets, while Sheikh Mahedi and Saif Hasan picked up 2 wickets each. Additionally, Kamrul Hasan and Rishad Hossain took one wicket apiece.
Earlier, Rangpur got off to a flying start after winning the toss and electing to bat. Soumya Sarkar and Steven Taylor laid a strong foundation with a partnership that produced 124 runs. Soumya reached his fifty in just 33 balls, while Taylor took 44 balls to achieve the same milestone.
Though Taylor was dismissed for 68 runs off 49 balls, Soumya continued his aggressive batting. Saif Hasan and Madsen contributed 6 and 10 runs, respectively, before getting out. Ultimately, Soumya’s unbeaten 86-run knock powered the Bangladeshi representatives to a formidable total of 178 runs.
