https://ift.tt/Wg0OTy6 Ishan Kishan justified his national recall with a sensational 32-ball-76 while captain Suryakumar Yadav scored his first fifty after 23 innings as India decimated New Zealand by seven wickets for a 2-0 lead in the five-match T20 series in Raipur on Friday. Ahead of the all important T20 World Cup, it all seems to be falling in place for India with Suryakumar (82 not out off 37) overcoming a prolonged lean patch and Kishan emerging as a destructive top-order enforcer. India were expected to chase 209 on a belter of a pitch but not with such ease after losing Abhishek Sharma and Sanju Samson by the second over of the chase. Suryakumar and Shivam Dube (36 not out off 18) closed out the game in a canter as India gunned down the target in 15.2 overs.

https://ift.tt/Fiwd95W The International Cricket Council Chairman Jay Shah will contemplate strict action against Bangladesh if they do not agree to tour India for the upcoming Men's T20 World Cup 2026, ICC sources said on Friday. The sources said the ICC Chairman is in Dubai for the final call on the issue. The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) had earlier requested that the ICC shift their ICC T20 World Cup matches outside India to Sri Lanka, citing "security and safety concerns" for its players. There has been some strain in India's ties with Bangladesh over rising incidents of crimes against minorities in the country. Last year, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) had asked Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) to release pacer Mustafizur Rahman from their Indian Premier League 2026 squad amid growing demands in India, following atrocities against minorities in Bangladesh. It is after Mustafizur's removal from the IPL that BCB started expressing concerns abo...

https://ift.tt/n93LrNI A woman in Andhra Pradesh's Guntur district made biryani for her husband. The key ingredient was powdered sleeping pills. After the husband slipped into a slumber, the woman called her lover to the house, before the pair smothered the sleeping man to death. This bizarre incident unfolded in Guntur's Chiluvuru village, police said.  Initially presented as a natural death, the case has led to the arrest of both suspects, following a forensic examination that revealed that the man had died after being suffocated. The victim, Lokam Shivanagaraju, was killed by his wife, Lakshmi Madhuri, and her lover, Gopi, according to police investigations. Madhuri had been involved in an extramarital relationship with Gopi for an unspecified period prior to the crime. On the night in question, Madhuri prepared biryani laced with powdered sleeping tablets and served it to her husband. Once Shivanagaraju had consumed the meal and fallen into a deep sleep, she summoned Gopi...

https://ift.tt/hZqib0o US officials on Thursday presented their vision for a "New Gaza" that would turn the shattered Palestinian territory into a glitzy resort of skyscrapers by the sea, saying the transformation could emerge in three years. The war in Gaza, sparked by Hamas's October 2023 attack on Israel, left much of the Palestinian territory damaged or destroyed and forced most of its residents to flee their homes. A US-brokered ceasefire took effect last October, reducing the level of bombing and fighting, but for most Gazans, the humanitarian disaster has endured three months on. "We're going to be very successful in Gaza. It's going to be a great thing to watch," President Donald Trump said while presenting his controversial "Board of Peace" conflict-resolution body in Davos. "I'm a real estate person at heart... and I said, look at this location on the sea. Look at this beautiful piece of property. What it could be for so ...
