Brook Breaks Gill's Huge World ODI Record, Scripts History For England

Captain Harry Brook smashed the fastest ever double century in men's one-day cricket internationals and the first for England on Thursday. Brook took 114 balls for the double ton and holed out two balls later for 202 off the final ball of England's innings against Sri Lanka in a tri-series match. He clobbered 10 sixes and 21 boundaries to lead England to 429-4, its fourth highest ODI total. Brook reached his first century off 75 balls with a ramped boundary over fine leg; reached 150 with a similar shot, and took 39 balls to hit the second century, reached with a paddle sweep against Janith Liyanage in the final over.

Brook's effort was two balls less than Shubman Gill's record of 116 balls which the Indian made against West Indies at Guwahati last month.

Fastest Double Century in ODIs:

114 balls - Harry Brook v SL*
117 balls - Shubman Gill v WI
126 balls - Ishan Kishan v BAN
128 balls - Glenn Maxwell v AFG
136 balls - P Nissanka v AFG
138 balls - Chris Gayle v ZIM 
140 balls - Virender Sehwag v WI

Joe Root (69), Will Jacks (66 not out) and Tom Banton (50) also contributed to England's monster total after being sent in.

Sri Lanka fast bowlers Eshan Malinga (0-91) and Dilshan Madushanka (0-89) were blazed all around Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium while Dasun Shanaka, returning to ODIs after more than two years, was smacked for 74 off his six overs.

Left-arm spinner Dunith Wellalage returned with somewhat respectable figures of 2-56, but the seamers went for plenty as Brook and Jacks added a rapid 156 runs in the final 10 overs.

Both teams are looking for their first win in the tournament after losing to Pakistan.

Sami Zayn Loses WWE Title Rematch To Cody Rhodes But Retains Championship

Sami Zayn is still the WWE Champion, because Cody Rhodes beat him only by disqualification in a dark match following Monday Night Raw. Rhodes got the rematch he was waiting for against the man who took the championship from him, but he couldn't leave with the gold. So Zayn's reign survives, and his announced champion-versus-champion match against Roman Reigns at Crown Jewel on November 7 stays on the schedule. Rhodes had already lost the title to Zayn in June, and because of that history this rematch was more than just another title bout. Zayn now goes toward Crown Jewel still holding the belt.

Rhodes Gets His WWE Championship Rematch After Four Months

Rhodes was waiting around four months for another shot at the WWE Championship, ever since he lost it to Zayn at Night of Champions in June. Gunther was also part of that match, and Zayn won his first world title there, after his friendship with Rhodes broke down in the weeks before the event.

Zayn's title run didn't start smoothly. He lost the championship to CM Punk in his first defense, just days after winning it. The original plan was Zayn to defend against Rhodes, but Cody got attacked backstage and this changed the match.

Later, Zayn won the belt back from Punk on the September 11 episode of SmackDown in Mexico. Then he retained it against Kevin Owens a week later, which was one more successful defense before Rhodes finally got his rematch on Monday night.

A title doesn't change hands on disqualification, so the finish decided everything. Rhodes couldn't take the championship back, and Zayn stayed champion after their latest meeting.

Roman Reigns Remains Zayn's Crown Jewel Opponent

WWE has already announced Zayn vs. Reigns for Crown Jewel in a champion-versus-champion match on November 7. Both men also had a tense face-off during Raw, so the upcoming bout was getting some attention even before Zayn's match with Rhodes came into picture.

Rhodes had a chance to disturb those plans by winning the title back. But the disqualification result left Zayn with the championship going into his scheduled meeting with Reigns.

Rhodes missed another opportunity to regain the belt, while Reigns stays as Zayn's announced opponent for Crown Jewel. The championship is still in Zayn's hands, and the November 7 clash remains on WWE's schedule.

Jaiprakash Power Q2 Results: Net Profit Slips 81% To Rs 33 Crore On One-Time Loss

Jaiprakash Power Ventures' second quarter revenue rose 5.1% year-on-year, while profit before exceptional items and tax climbed nearly 79%. A Rs 511 crore provision for a settlement with NARCL weighed on earnings this quarter. JP Power Ventures's consolidated net profit fell 81.7% year-on-year to Rs 33.34 crore in the quarter ended Sept 30, compared with Rs 182 crore in the year-ago period.

The decline followed a Rs 511 crore exceptional charge towards a proposed full-and-final settlement with the National Asset Reconstruction Company Ltd. (NARCL) over a corporate guarantee furnished by the company for loans to Jaiprakash Associates.

Net profit fell 81.7% to Rs 33.3 crore as compared to Rs 182 crore the previous year in the same period.

Revenue from operations increased 5.1% year-on-year to Rs 1,512.12 crore from Rs 1,438.30 crore. Total income rose to Rs 1,579.34 crore from Rs 1,478.49 crore.

The company's September-quarter earnings therefore reflect the impact of the settlement provision, even as profit before exceptional items and tax improved.

Jaiprakash Power Q2 Results - Cons, YoY

• Net profit down 81.7% at Rs 33.3 crore vs Rs 182 crore YoY
