    India vs Sri Lanka: Axar Patel Replaces Shardul Thakur as India Takes Field for 3rd Successive Day in Asia Cup

    Almost 15 hours after their emphatic victory over Pakistan, the Indian cricket team is back at the R. Premadasa Stadium in Colombo for the third consecutive day, with Axar Patel replacing Shardul Thakur in the playing XI for the Asia Cup Super Four match against Sri Lanka. In a challenging schedule, India is set to bat first after winning the toss, and skipper Rohit Sharma expressed confidence in his refreshed team despite the grueling schedule.

    We are going to have a bat. That’s the challenge you come across as a sportsman, different challenges thrown at you as a player and as a team. We ensured everyone got into the pool after the game last night. They are fresh as we had five days off before these two games,” Rohit said, highlighting his team’s resilience.

    Despite being on the field for three successive days, India made only one change to their playing XI, bringing in Axar Patel as the third spinner in place of pace-all-rounder Shardul Thakur. This tactical adjustment takes into account the drier pitch conditions, which are likely to favor spinners, while also retaining three quality pacers in the squad.

    However, India will miss the services of Shreyas Iyer, who has been ruled out of the game against Sri Lanka due to a back spasm. The Mumbai batter was also absent in the previous match against Pakistan and has been advised rest by the medical team.

    Here are the confirmed playing XIs for the match:

    India Playing 11: Rohit Sharma (c), Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, KL Rahul (w), Ishan Kishan, Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj.

    Sri Lanka Playing 11: Pathum Nissanka, Dimuth Karunaratne, Kusal Mendis (w), Sadeera Samarawickrama, Charith Asalanka, Dhananjaya de Silva, Dasun Shanaka (c), Dunith Wellalage, Maheesh Theekshana, Kasun Rajitha, Matheesha Pathirana.

    The match promises to be an exciting contest as both teams strive to secure their place in the Asia Cup Super Four stage. Stay tuned for live updates and thrilling cricket action as India and Sri Lanka clash at the R. Premadasa Stadium in Colombo.

    Banihal/Jammu, Jul 10 (GNS): Traffic movement on the Jammu-Srinagar highway remained suspended for the third day on Monday and the authorities said that the thoroughfare shall remain closed on Tuesday despite stepped up efforts to restore the road amid improved weather conditions, officials said.

    The highway, , the only surface link connecting Kashmir Valley with outside world, was shut for traffic on Saturday following heavy rains overnight that triggered multiple landslides and also washed away a portion of nearly 40-metre road stretch near Panthiyal tunnel in Ramban district.

     “Collective efforts from the Administration and NHAI, put in throughout the day, resulted in substantial improvement in the road condition. However, complete restoration is expected to take some more time,” police said in a statement issued here to GNS. “Accordingly, it has been decided by the Administration to keep the traffic on Highway suspended for tomorrow also i.e. 11.07.2023 (Tuesday).” HMVs have been advised to take Mughal Road for journey from Jammu to Srinagar and vice versa.

     “Traffic is likely to resume on 12.07.2023 (Wednesday), however, next update will be issued tomorrow evening.” (GNS)

  • Pak Vs NZ 3rd ODI: Fakhar Zaman Eyes Top Position In ODI Rankings – Kashmir News

    [ad_1]

    Karachi, May 3: Fakhar Zaman has emerged as a challenger to Babar Azam’s dominance in the ODI rankings after his recent performances against New Zealand in the five-match ODI series.

    Fakhar has commenced Pakistan’s ongoing ODI series at home against New Zealand in a blaze of glory, with the 33-year-old scoring back-to-back centuries to put his side in control of the five-match series.

    The left-hander scored 117 in the series opener in Rawalpindi and then backed it up with a magnificent 180* in the second match at the same venue and was duly rewarded with an eight-spot jump to second behind Babar on the latest rankings update.

    Babar is on the top of the ranking list with 887 points while Fakhar holds the second position with 784 points.

    Fakhar has scored three ODI centuries on the bounce and rises to a career-best rating of 784 rating points and is now the closest challenger to his skipper despite trailing by 103 rating points.

    It means Pakistan now have three players in the top five on the latest ODI batting charts ahead of the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup later this year, with Imam-ul-Haq remaining in fifth place behind his two teammates and South Africa’s Rassie van der Dussen and India’s Shubman Gill.

    New Zealand’s stars didn’t miss out completely, with Tom Latham and Daryl Mitchell the big winners following their good starts to the series in Pakistan.

    Latham hit 98 in the second match of the series and moves up three places to equal 29th, while Mitchell scored a brilliant 129 in the same contest to rise from outside the top 100 to 57th on the ODI batting rankings.

    There was a slight re-shuffle behind top-ranked Australian Josh Hazlewood inside the top 10 of the ODI rankings for bowlers, while experienced Oman captain Zeeshan Maqsood jumped three places to fifth overall on the list for ODI all-rounders following his four-wicket haul and steady knock of 40 against the UAE in Mulpani.

    A host of Sri Lanka players also made some ground on the latest Test rankings, following their impressive series sweep over Ireland in Galle.

    Left-arm spinner Prabath Jayasuriya was the big winner on the rankings for bowlers, with the 31-year-old improving six spots to 13th on the back of his seven-wicket haul during the second Test.

    Teammate Ramesh Mendis collected six wickets from the same Test and moved up 10 places to 22nd as a result, while experienced duo Angelo Mathews (up one spot to 22nd) and Kusal Mendis (up three places to 39th) improved the rankings for batters after reaching three figures during the match.–(ANI)

  • 3rd Manipur BJP legislator quits govt post in a week

    3rd Manipur BJP legislator quits govt post in a week

    [ad_1]

    Imphal: Amidst continuing resentment among section of BJP MLAs against Manipur Chief Minister N. Biren Singh, P. Brojen Singh on Thursday became the third ruling party legislator has quit his government post, resigning as Chairman of the Manipur Development Society.

    In his resignation letter to the Chief Minister, he said that he has stepped down on “epersonal grounds”.

    Brojen Singh represents the Wangjing Tentha Assembly constituency in Thoubal district.

    MS Education Academy

    Earlier, BJP MLAs Thokchom Radheysham and Karam Shyam quit as Chief Minister’s advisor and the Chairman of the Manipur State Tourism Development Corporation on April 17 and April 13 respectively. Both had served as ministers in the first Biren Singh led government (2017-2022).

    All the three MLAs claimed that they were not given due responsibility, funds and authority to function in their posts.

    In a video clip, Shyam said: “A leader should be committed and sincere instead of threatening the followers. If such threats occurred frequently then an eruption of a revolt among the followers is a must… Manipur is becoming a corruption-free state but, in corruption, only the giver and the takers will know.”

    Political and informed sources said that some more discontented BJP MLAs are likely to quit their respective government posts and are now lobbying with the central party leadership seeking their intervention in the affairs of Manipur.

    The aggrieved legislators include a few Kuki MLAs, who are reportedly unhappy with an eviction drive targeting the community.

    “Chief Minister N. Biren Singh is likely to go to New Delhi in a day or two for a possible reconciliation with the disgruntled BJP legislators with the intervention of the central leaders,” said a party leader, refusing to be named.

    The Chief Minister is yet to respond to the political developments.

    Winning 32 seats in the 60-member Assembly, the BJP government retained power for a second consecutive term in the last year polls. Various other parties are supporting the BJP government too.

    Karnataka: Cong announces 3rd list of candidates, Laxman Savadi allotted ticket

    [ad_1]

    Bengaluru: Karnataka Congress on Saturday announced the third list of 43 candidates for the state assembly elections. Former deputy chief minister Laxman Savadi, who joined Congress from BJP, has been allotted the ticket from Athani constituency in Belagavi district.

    In the party’s third list, Laxman Savadi’s name appeared on the top.

    Interestingly, the party has not announced the ticket for the Hubballi-Dharwad Central constituency for which former chief minister and senior BJP leader Jagadish Shettar has locked horns with the saffron party.

    MS Education Academy

    Sources explain that the Congress leaders have already approached and assured Shettar of their ticket and position if he joins Congress.

    The party has named G.B. Malatesh as the candidate for the Shikaripura constituency from where former chief minister B.S. Yediyurappa’s son B.Y. Vijayendra is contesting.

    Siddaramaiah’s loyalist Umashree has been denied a ticket from Terdal constituency from where Siddappa Ramappa Konnur has been fielded. Film producer Umapathy Srinivas Gowda has managed to obtain a ticket from Bommanahalli constituency in Bengaluru.

    K.M. Shivalinge Gowda, who joined Congress from JD(S), has been allotted ticket for Arasikere constituency. The party has fielded Banavasi Rangaswamy from Hassan seat. Preetham Gowda is BJP’s candidate here and since this is the only seat in the district, the saffron party is in no mood to lose it.

    The locals say that it is going to be a straight fight between BJP and JD(S) in Hassan.

    Congress had announced 124 candidates in the first list and 42 candidates in the second list. It is yet to announce names for the 16 seats.

    Excise scam: Kavitha likely to join ED for 3rd round of questioning today

    [ad_1]

    New Delhi: K. Kavitha, the daughter of Telangana Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao, is likely to appear before the Enforcement Directorate (ED) here on Tuesday for the third round of questioning in the Delhi Excise policy case.

    On Monday, the Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) MLC was grilled for almost ten hours during which she was confronted with Hyderabad-based businessman Arun Pillai and a few documentary evidence.

    She had earlier refused to join the probe at the ED office but was ready to answer through emails and at her home. Later, she changed her mind and joined the probe in the national capital.

    During her first appearance, she was reportedly confronted with Arun Pillai, who had represented the South Group which allegedly gave kickbacks of Rs 100 crore to AAP leaders allegedly used during the Goa Assembly polls.

    Pillai has reportedly said that he was Kavitha’s associate.

    On Wednesday, the ED recorded the statement of Buchchi Babu, the BRS MLC’s former auditor and also a member of the South Group.

    Kavitha has maintained that she has never met former Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia, who has been arrested by the CBI and the ED in connection with the case, claiming that her name was being unnecessarily dragged into the matter.

    According to the ED, Kavitha is also one of the representatives of South Group in the excise policy case.
