 Barcelona registered a comfortable 4-0 win away on Saturday night.

Arturo Vidal, Martin Braithwaite, Jordi Alba and Messi scored a goal each as Barca is at the top of the table with 61 points in 28 matches.

 

Cricket is currently on hold due to the health crisis which has gripped the world.

The T20 World Cup in Australia is slated to take place Down Under from October 18 to November 15. The ICC in its board meeting on Wednesday decided to a 'wait and watch' before deciding on the fate of the showpiece event.

The BCCI is looking at a similar window for the 13th edition of the IPL which got postponed from March due to the coronavirus pandemic.
