‘Paraguay’s cynical game same as in 1998; they didn’t evolve’: Frank Leboeuf

‘Paraguay’s cynical game same as in 1998; they didn’t evolve’: Frank Leboeuf

Frank Leboeuf is a World Cup winner with France’s 1998 team, and reasonably respectful of South American teams and talent they possess – good enough to not play desperately dirty football. Sitting in the ESPN studio with Scottish Craig Burley, Leboeuf refused to believe Paraguay had no other option but to play cruel, cynical and curmudgeonly football. “I’m relieved but upset,” Leboeuf said on ESPN. “Maybe France didn’t have a good game, but it’s impossible to play against a team like that (Paraguay). They refuse to play. Every action from them, every decision from referee 30 years ago …. ,” said the ’98 starter who has seen these dirty tricks before. “With many South American teams, you have to complain, you have to discuss, you have to not be okay with any decision. I’m fed up with that football,” he added. Many football watchers were disgusted given they also watched Cape Verde two nights before, playing clean tackles for a defensive masterclass that left even Lionel Messi panting. “Especially when we saw Cape Verde trying …

If KL Rahul can evolve, why can’t Shubman Gill and Rishabh Pant? 67-ball 152* lays bare cost of standing still in T20s

If KL Rahul can evolve, why can’t Shubman Gill and Rishabh Pant? 67-ball 152* lays bare cost of standing still in T20s

It was hot, as expected in New Delhi, and the exhaustion was visible not just in the cricketers at the Arun Jaitley Stadium but also among the spectators in the stands. But KL Rahul had other plans, giving Indian cricket a masterclass it didn’t know it needed. It was a statement to the selectors, his critics and fans that if he can evolve as a batter in T20 cricket, so can Shubman Gill and Rishabh Pant. Unlike Rahul, both Gill and Pant have failed to impress this season and have been on the receiving end of constant criticism. KL Rahul’s evolution could become a source of motivation for Shubman Gill and Rishabh Pant. Rahul was a man on a mission against Punjab Kings on Saturday. But in a cricket match, you also need your teammates to contribute as it’s a collective effort. Rahul had to learn it the hard way as Delhi Capitals were left shellshocked at the Arun Jaitley Stadium, crashing to a six-wicket defeat. Everything seemed to be going DC’s way in the …

How Asha Bhosle forced herself to evolve out of sister Lata Mangeshkar’s shadow, spoke about their ‘quiet’ competition | Bollywood News

How Asha Bhosle forced herself to evolve out of sister Lata Mangeshkar’s shadow, spoke about their ‘quiet’ competition | Bollywood News

Asha Bhosle, one of Indian cinema’s most versatile and beloved singers, died in Mumbai on Sunday at the age of 92. Her family confirmed that she breathed her last at Breach Candy Hospital, bringing to a close a career that spanned over seven decades. For millions, Asha Bhosle was more than a singer, she was a voice that grew with them, shifting effortlessly across moods, genres, and generations. Alongside her elder sister, Lata Mangeshkar, she helped define the golden era of Indian cinema with their voices. Yet, there was a time when a young Asha feared she would always remain in her elder sister’s shadow. In an interview with India Today, she recalled how a production man once mistook Lata’s voice for hers. “I come from a family of musicians. Right from my father to my sister, they were all singers. My voice was very much similar to didi (Lata Mangeshkar). Initially when I sang, my voice would come out the same as didi. Once a man called me. During those days, music records would …

Quick Comment: Why Ruturaj Gaikwad has to evolve his T20 batting | Cricket News

Quick Comment: Why Ruturaj Gaikwad has to evolve his T20 batting | Cricket News

4 min readChennaiApr 11, 2026 10:10 PM IST When Chennai Super Kings walked back to the dressing room at the interval against Delhi Capitals, they had 212/2 on board. Yet, there were two underlying questions. 1) Did they miss out on at least 20 more runs? 2) Could they have been quick to get off the blocks? For both these questions, one had to take a hard look at Ruturaj Gaikwad’s innings, where he scored 15 off 18 deliveries on a flat deck where runs were there for the taking. As CSK have endured another bad start to the season, losing three out of three, one of the bright spots has been the visible change in their batting approach. It is a team that is finally catching up with the pace at which T20s are being played, except for Gaikwad. Before his innings against Delhi Capitals on Saturday, the CSK captain had scores of 6, 28 and 7. It was enough for pundits to raise a valid question. With Ayush Mhatre in the side and …

IPL | Kartik Tyagi needs to evolve his own action and not copy other bowlers: Dale Steyn | Cricket News

IPL | Kartik Tyagi needs to evolve his own action and not copy other bowlers: Dale Steyn | Cricket News

3 min readMar 30, 2026 08:28 PM IST Kartik Tyagi grew up in Dhanaura, Hapur of Uttar Pradesh, idolising Brett Lee. As the years rolled on, the 25-year-old 6-foot-3 kept getting compared to whoever was the pacer in vogue. Tyagi once told Red Bull, “I have been watching Brett Lee’s bowling from when I was very young and his run-up style is unique. So like him, I thought it is important to have a really fast run-up. And because of that fast run-up style, people have compared me with Brett Lee and Ishant Sharma. And I feel great to be compared with some of the best fast bowlers in the world.” A more nuanced and pragmatic mould for the Kolkata Knight Riders pacer who moved east from Rajasthan Royals, seemed to be Jasprit Bumrah and Mitchell Starc. Not because his action riffed off them naturally, but the deconstructed elements fit. Now, Dale Steyn is urging the promising pacer to evolve a style of his own, because fast bowling actions can’t be 3D printed into real …

Sachin Tendulkar on Ashwin’s retirement: ‘True greatness lies in never being afraid to experiment and evolve’ | Cricket News

Batting legend Sachin Tendulkar paid his tribute to R Ashwin who announced his international retirement after the third Border-Gavaskar Trophy Test in Brisbane, retracing the Tamil Nadu cricketer’s journey from a promising talent to India’s off-spin maestro. Ashwin, who made his international debut in 2010 and played his first Test the following year, was part of the 2011 World Cup-winning team alongside Tendulkar and in a glowing red-ball career across 13 years, became India’s premier match-winner with the ball in home Tests. Only months after Ashwin became the oldest Indian to bag a five-wicket haul, a record-extending 37th, he bid adieu to the international scene as India’s second-highest wicket-taker across formats (765) and the second-highest in Tests with 537 scalps in 106 appearances. Ashwin, I’ve always admired how you approached the game with your mind and heart in perfect sync. From perfecting the carrom ball to contributing crucial runs, you always found a way to win.Watching you grow from a promising talent to one of India’s finest match-winners has been… pic.twitter.com/XawHfacaUh — Sachin Tendulkar (@sachin_rt) …

“Have To Evolve”: Ravichandran Ashwin Stands Against Rohit Sharma On ‘Impact Player’ Rule

The “Impact Player” rule might have come in for sharp criticism in the ongoing IPL, but former India coach Ravi Shastri and senior spinner Ravichandran Ashwin have backed it, stating that it leads to more close finishes. The rule, implemented in the competition last season, has been a topic of debate this edition, with some experts and current players saying that it will make all-rounders redundant. “When any new rule comes in, there will be people who will try to justify why that’s not right,” Shastri said. “But with time, when you see the scores – 200 and 190 – and then, individuals grabbing that opportunity and making the most of it, people will start re-looking at how they think about it.” Shastri vouched for the rule, saying that the game has to evolve with time. “The Impact Player (rule) is good. You have to evolve with the times. It happens in other sports as well. It’s got tighter finishes,” he said on Ashwin’s YouTube channel. “I think it’s a good rule. You …
