Blake Griffin vs Tyler Hansbrough? The highly-anticipated match in college basketball is not as anticipated in NBA.

Sri Lanka 138-6; Pakistan 139-2 | Pakistan won by eight wickets

Pakistan claim World Twenty20 title with eight-wicket win over Sri Lanka. Runners-up last time, Pakistan went one better in the midsummer sunshine at Lord's, winning the World Twenty20 by eight wickets with eight balls to spare. It was an emotional occasion for a side who have been disenfranchised by terrorism, unable to play matches at home, destined to roam the world in search of cricket to sustain interest and their development. No one, not even those who would have seen as cathartic a Sri Lanka win, will begrudge them their triumph in front of a fervent crowd, the noise of which will have disturbed the St John's Wood Sunday for some hours afterwards.
