    George Bennett faces the biggest test of his professional cycling career this year.

    The 30-year-old will spearhead his Jumbo-Visma team's challenge at May's Giro d'Italia grand tour.

    Bennett finished eighth in yesterday's 164-kilometre Gravel-and-Tar race in Manawatu.



    Mark Chapman's 73 from 34 balls has helped Auckland to their first win of cricket's T20 Super Smash against Central Districts at Eden Park outer oval.

    The Aces won by 17 runs, after posting 199 for six.



    England's James Anderson has taken six wickets for 40 to dismiss Sri Lanka for 381 on the second day of the second cricket test at Galle.

    His figures are the best in 107 years by a pace bowler aged 38 or older.

    The hosts are 98 for two in reply.



    Holders Arsenal have been ousted 1-nil by Southampton in the fourth round of football's FA Cup.



    The New Zealand Grand Prix is today - 79-year-old three-time winner Kenny Smith will race the event for a 50th time.



    Aegon, ridden by Leith Innes and trained by Murray Baker and Andrew Forsman, has kept his perfect record intact with a win in the Karaka Million three-year-old Classic raced over 1600 metres at Ellerslie.



    Golfer Rory McIlroy has shot a five-under par 67 to secure a one shot advantage atop the leaderboard at 13-under, heading into the last round of the European Tour's Abu Dhabi Championship.



    Rower Mahe Drysdale will line up on the Whanganui River this morning for what may be his last Billy Webb Challenge.

    The annual five-kilometre race commemorates Webb's single sculling world champion title defence in 1908.
