R Ashwin unapologetic over Jos Buttler mankad years later, says ‘if you start running early, whose fault is it?’

R Ashwin recalled running out Jos Buttler at the non-striker’s end in IPL 2019. The incident occurred during KXIP’s match against RR, when Ashwin was representing Punjab. Ashwin’s mankad of Buttler sparked a massive controversy over fair play, but the former India cricketer has always stood by his original decision. R Ashwin recalled his controversial dismissal of Jos Buttler. Chasing a target of 185, RR started strong with Buttler taking on opposition bowlers until Ashwin took the bails off before even delivering his ball. Buttler had to depart as he was outside the crease at the non-striker’s end. The pair exchanged words after the incident, and the third umpire also gave the Englishman the marching orders, which changed the tide of the match. Punjab went on to win the match by 14 runs.

Sunil Gavaskar on David Miller’s decision: ‘A single might have been better option… but can’t fault his intent’ | Ipl News

3 min readUpdated: Apr 9, 2026 02:46 PM IST Cricket legend Sunil Gavaskar has said that David Miller should have taken a leaf out of Ravi Shastri’s book and taken a single in the penultimate ball of Delhi Capitals’ chase against the Gujarat Titans on Wednesday night. With Delhi needing two runs off the final two balls, they fell short by a run as Miller refused to take a single on the fifth ball of the 20th over before trying to sneak a bye on the final ball but seeing his partner Kuldeep Yadav get run out. “This is where game awareness becomes crucial. It reminds me of what Ravi Shastri did in that tied Test against Australia in 1986, taking a single at the right moment to level the scores,” Sunil Gavaskar said on a post-match analysis show on JioHotstar. “In this case, in hindsight, a single (on the fifth ball) might have been the better option, especially after Kuldeep Yadav managed one earlier. But David Miller was backing himself, he had been striking …

Why former AC Milan defender Alessandro Costacurta thinks it wasn’t Bastoni’s fault alone that Italy was out of World Cup qualification | Football News

3 min readApr 2, 2026 08:28 PM IST Pinpointing the crucial moment when Alessandro Bastoni ended with a red card, after a clumsy challenge on Memic, former AC Milan defender Alessandro Costacurta said going back a few frames, might reveal how the long kick clearance from Gigi Donnarumma and Gianluca Mancini might have equally been responsible for the penalty conceded after Italy led 1-0. Bastoni, playing out of position, was careless no doubt but Costacurta told Sky Sports, that Mancini ought to have expected the header. “And even on the sending off, the carelessness isn’t just Bastoni’s. He made a mistake, but Mancini should expect the header and should start earlier, let’s not point the finger at Bastoni alone. On Donnarumma’s clearance, what was our situation? You have to expect the opponent to get it, and Mancini starts late on Donnarumma’s clearance, starts later, and so Bastoni goes in. It’s not just Bastoni’s fault, who obviously should never come on because it’s better to stay with 11 men anyway,” he explained. Costacurta also said the …

Karthi-starrer Japan was released in theatres in 2023 and received negative reviews from critics, eventually failing at the box office. Almost three years after its release, the film’s director, Raju Murugan, has finally broken his silence on the movie. Raju Murugan on Karthi’s Japan failure In a conversation with Sudhir Srinivasan, director Raju Murugan admitted that the film’s failure was entirely his responsibility and also revealed that he had initially wanted to make it as a web series. The director said, “Every movie we make starts with great belief. However, during the process, something happens that leaves it undercooked. Something went wrong while cooking in Japan. I must add that Karthi sir was always with me while making the film. He was very supportive as an artist and wholeheartedly agreed to experiment.” He further added, “When he came on board, I was the one who had thoughts of adding more elements. Initially, I wanted to make the project an eight-episode web series. The producers read the story and suggested that we make it as a …

Yashasvi Jaiswal being left out ‘for no fault of his’, says former India captain and chief selector Dilip Vengsarkar on opener’s T20 World Cup snub

Yashasvi Jaiswal, who was the backup opener two years back when India won the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024, finds himself out of reckoning for the team’s title defence. Former India chief selector Dilip Vengsarkar said it is unfortunate that the talented left-hander keeps missing out ‘for no fault of his’. “It is unfortunate that Yashasvi is being left out time and again for no fault of his. He has been in tremendous form across all formats of the game and I don’t know what else he has to do to get into the team,” former India captain Vengsarkar told PTI. “Nobody should leave a match-winner out of the team.” When asked what he would have told Jaiswal had he now been the chairman of selectors, Vengsarkar said: “I wouldn’t have told him anything because I wouldn’t have dropped him in the first place.” The current chief of selectors Ajit Agarkar did bring up Jaiswal’s name when he addressed the media but in a different context, because a majority of attention was on Shubman …

‘Not high command’s fault’: Kharge on Karnataka Cong leadership issue

Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge on Sunday drew a clear line between the party’s central leadership and the simmering power struggle in Karnataka, saying the confusion over leadership exists only at the local level and not within the party high command. Kharge rejected suggestions that the party leadership in Delhi was responsible for the uncertainty, arguing that local leaders must take responsibility for their internal disagreements.(PTI) Speaking to reporters, Kharge rejected suggestions that the party leadership in Delhi was responsible for the uncertainty, arguing that local leaders must take responsibility for their internal disagreements. “The high command hasn’t created any confusion. It exists at the local level,” he said, asking, “How is it right to put the blame on the high command?” Kharge also issued a caution to party leaders against claiming personal credit for the Congress’s electoral success in the state. Emphasising the role of the organisation and its cadre, Kharge said the party’s victories were the result of collective effort rather than individual ambition. “Everyone has built the party. It’s not any individual’s effort. …

Citizen participation Vs lack of intent: Meeting on tackling malnutrition exposes fault lines

Citizen participation Vs lack of intent: Meeting on tackling malnutrition exposes fault lines

AMRAVATI: Citizen participation is necessary to strengthen the healthcare system and prevent maternal and child deaths in the tribal-dominated Melghat region in Amravati district, secretary of the public health department Nipun Vinayak said on Saturday. Citizen participation Vs lack of intent: Meeting on tackling malnutrition exposes fault lines “Along with the creation of necessary facilities to prevent maternal and child mortality, the health system needs to be strengthened at the village level, with active participation of citizens,” a press release issued by the district collectorate said, quoting Vinayak’s address during a review meeting comprising officials from six teams which toured different regions of Melghat on Friday. The teams visited the region to assess health infrastructure and address malnutrition, pursuant to orders issued by the Bombay high court (HC) on November 24. But petitioners of a clutch of Public Interest Litigations (PILs), whose interventions in court led to the directive and who were present during Saturday’s meeting, said the emphasis on citizen participation belied crippling problems regarding lack of inter-departmental coordination and government neglect.
