Tana Umaga fears the region's talent will gravitate to league and derail the Tongan and Samoan Test sides without a Super Rugby presence. The Super Rugby Pacific franchise is set to be disbanded after ownership confirmed it would not continue funding the unviable operation beyond this season.

Not all 49ers are looking forward to what could be a schedule with two international games on separate continents, which hasn't happened in NFL history. The 49ers are expected to host a December game in Mexico City, and although the NFL has yet to announce that, 49ers officials have indicated that is the plan. That's not fair.

9th over: Australia 81-0 (Voll 63, Mooney 18) Sree Charani comes into the attack with her left arm orthodox spin.

Australia are applying some serious pressure to India here it's much improved batting from Sunday's match.
