I love going to see movies,” he told Business Insider.

“We’ve Probably Left 20 or 30 Runs” Lance Klusener Disagrees With Rishabh Pant Over DC Loss

“We’ve Probably Left 20 or 30 Runs” Lance Klusener Disagrees With Rishabh Pant Over DC Loss

The LSG assistant coach Lance Klusener feels that the batters didn’t put enough runs on the board saying that they were 20-30 runs short during their IPL 2025 clash against Delhi Capitals. His remarks come after Rishabh Pant felt his side had enough on the board in Vishakapatnam. “I think our top-order batters played really well and I think it was a pretty good score on this wicket,” said the wk-batter. However, the former South Africa pacer disagreed with the remarks, throwing the stone at the LSG batters. “If I have to put a finger on it, I would like to say we’ve probably left 20 or 30 runs with the bat out there. That was probably why we ended up being under pressure with the ball,” said LSG assistant coach. “I thought they [DC] finished well with the bat, but the reason why we’re in that position is because we didn’t score enough runs, which we should have. I thought when the bowlers got it right, there was a little bit of spin, so …

Adam Gilchrist Disagrees With Ricky Ponting, Declares This Player As The “Greatest”

Adam Gilchrist Disagrees With Ricky Ponting, Declares This Player As The “Greatest”

Australian cricket legend Adam Gilchrist has weighed in on the greatest all-rounder debate, challenging Ricky Ponting’s assertion that Jacques Kallis is the best cricketer of all time. While Ponting recently hailed Kallis for his staggering numbers with both bat and ball, Gilchrist believes statistics alone don’t define greatness and instead placed the late Shane Warne at the top of cricket’s all-time elite. “I understand where Ricky is coming from—statistically, the runs, wickets, and catches—but there is more to it than just numbers,” Gilchrist said in an interview with news.com.au. “I personally think Shane Warne is the greatest to have played.” Ponting had earlier named Kallis as the cricketing GOAT, citing his 13,289 Test runs, 45 centuries, and 292 wickets as unparalleled achievements. However, Gilchrist insisted that Warne’s impact on the game, both as a bowler and a tactician, was unmatched. “For Warnie to achieve what he did, especially living the way he did and still managing to perform at that level, it shows he was a true champion,” Gilchrist said. “Beyond his bowling, …

Naga Vamsi admits he thinks twice ‘before making good films’, prioritises profits; Boney Kapoor disagrees with his approach: ‘There should be a balance’ | Bollywood News

The post-pandemic era has not been too profitable for the film industry. The secret recipe for a perfect entertainer has been hard to crack. With movies like Pushpa 2: The Rule, Kalki 2898 AD, and Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 doing excellent business in the last year, a debate has ignited between producers, who are conflicted about making big-budget event films, or smaller films aimed at a more discerning audience. In the recent round table moderated by Galatta Plus, producers Boney Kapoor, Naga Vamsi, as well as actor-producer Siddharth discussed the subject of creativity versus commerce. During the chat, Naga Vamsi and Boney Kapoor vocally opposed each other’s point of view. Naga Vamsi, the producer of movies such as DJ Tillu and Jersey (Hindi version), said that for him, profits outweigh everything else. He said, “We always have second thoughts about making risky films with an unconventional subject. We consider the kind of money it will earn through OTT before we take the theatre risk. After all the calculations, we think twice before making good films. We …

A day after Mohammed Siraj’s send-off to centurion Travis Head at the Adelaide Oval, things seem to be spicing up in the India vs Australia Border Gavaskar Trophy. After bowling a superb inswinging yorker to Head, who was batting on a sensational run-a-ball 140, Siraj pointed Head towards the dressing room, while words were exchanged too. Before the start of Day 3 play in Adelaide, Siraj appeared on Star Sports broadcast to clarify his position after Head had claimed he just said ‘well bowled’. In the interview with former India off-spinner Harbhajan Singh, Siraj denied it. And towards the end of the interview Harbhajan offered an advice in jest to Siraj, who was recently appointed as Deputy Superintendent of Police in his home state of Telangana. “DSP saab, jab yeh dubara Hyderabad aayenge na toh usko thoda giraftaar kar lena (when he comes to Hyderabad to play in the IPL, try and arrest him),” Harbhajan said with a smile, before quickly adding. “I am just joking. I wish you all the best, let’s hope if …

ICC Champions Trophy: Shoaib Akhtar weighs in on hybrid model; disagrees with PCB on key point | Cricket News

ICC Champions Trophy: Shoaib Akhtar weighs in on hybrid model; disagrees with PCB on key point | Cricket News

Former Pakistan pacer Shoaib Akhtar agreed that the Pakistan Cricket Board’s reported demand for higher revenue from the ICC Champions Trophy, in case of the ‘hybrid model’ being employed, was justified, but took a differing stance to his home country’s board on the alleged matter of the model being applicable in India as well. Akhtar made the comments on a Pakistani channel and said, “You are getting paid for hosting rights and revenue, and that’s fine-we all understand it. Pakistan’s stance is also reasonable. They should have maintained a strong position, why not? Once we are able to host the Champions Trophy in our country and they are unwilling to come, they should share the revenue with us at a higher rate. That’s a good call.” But the Rawalpindi Express stated that rather than Pakistan asking for a hybrid model to be put across in India as well, a team should be sent for matches in the country. His logic was that Pakistan should always be the country that extends a hand of friendship towards …
