Here's a quick roundup of the biggest sports news making headlines, from cricketing controversies and World Cup twists to record chases and Davis Cup drama.

1. India vs Pakistan Set to Go Ahead After ICC Talks

Agni Dev Chopra has dismissed reports claiming he registered for the Pakistan Super League auction after his name appeared on the PCB's official list with a base price of PKR 6 million. The left-hander, who plays domestic cricket for Mizoram and represents MI New York in Major League Cricket, termed the reports \"fake and misleading,\" stressing his focus on his cricketing pathway in the USA. His mother, Anupama Chopra, echoed the clarification online. The PCB has not yet explained how Chopra's name appeared on the list or issued an official correction.

3. Suryakumar's 84 Enters Elite T20 WC List

Suryakumar Yadav's unbeaten 84 off 49 balls against the USA was not just a recovery knock for India, but a historic one. The innings is now the second-highest score by a player on captaincy debut in T20 World Cups. Only Chris Gayle's iconic 88 against Australia in 2009 stands above it, underlining the significance of Suryakumar's start to his World Cup captaincy journey.

4. New Zealand Complete Record T20 WC Chase

New Zealand scripted history in Chennai by chasing down Afghanistan's 182, their highest successful run-chase in the T20 World Cup. It was also the biggest target ever chased against Afghanistan in T20Is. Despite losing two wickets inside the first two overs, New Zealand's middle order absorbed pressure on a challenging Chepauk pitch to overhaul a total that Afghanistan had previously defended flawlessly.

5. Suresh Draws India Level in Davis Cup

Dhakshineswar Suresh brought India back on level terms against the Netherlands in the Davis Cup Qualifiers first round in Bengaluru. Beating Jesper de Jong 6-4, 7-5, Suresh delivered a composed performance built around a strong serve and sharp movement, firing nine aces in under 90 minutes. Captain Rohit Rajpal hailed him as India's \"trump card\" after the win.
