That is a really silly question. No one goes in there waiting to go, ‘Oh, you know what? We’re just going to give up on this one.’ Why would we do that as professional …

‘It must be down to mentality’: Glenn McGrath on England’s inability to win a Test in Australia in last 18 tries | Cricket News

Ahead of this edition of the Ashes, Australia great Glenn McGrath had predicted that England would lose to Australia 5-0. A claim that many turned their nose up at now seems to be on its way to reality with England already 0-3 down in the series and have no chance of reclaiming the urn. They, however, are staring at a very real possibility of getting whitewashed 5-0. In his latest column for the BBC, McGrath said that England not winning a Test in Australia in their last 18 tries might be down to their players’ mentality. “England came here with a big reputation. We heard lots about how this was their best chance to win here since 2010-11, and how this was the worst Australia team since then. No-one expected Australia to be 3-0 up after three Tests. We can criticise England – and plenty of people have – but we also must give immense credit to Australia for the way they have played,” McGrath wrote on BBC. “I do not believe England’s long barren …

‘India’s win can change the mentality towards women’s cricket… so many from small villages will get confidence that they too can represent country’ | Cricket News

The reason why most of the girls who have been crowned world champions now grew up being the only girls on the cricket field wasn’t always straightforward discrimination. Though that must have happened too, as boys decide amongst themselves that the girl will be the last one to bat, after they are all done. But there were other reasons too. Not all coaches might know how to coach girls. Also some boys would be wary that bowling fast will end up hurting the girl. So punches are pulled.

Randeep Hooda criticizes Bollywood’s ‘bhedh chaal’ mentality, says only OTT dares to experiment: ‘Sabko Stree ke baad horror comedy banana hai’

Bollywood actor Randeep Hooda recently shared his thoughts on Bollywood’s tendency to follow trends blindly. He pointed out that genuine innovation is now primarily seen on OTT platforms. Using the success of Stree, featuring Shraddha Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao, as an example, he noted how the industry is now flooded with horror comedies, as filmmakers rush to replicate its formula. In a conversation with Indian Express, Randeep Hooda discussed how the industry heavily relies on trends. He said, “I would bring it down to bhedh chaal. If one thing works, then similar things start getting made. Sabko vahi banaana hai. Abhi sabko Stree ke baad horror comedy banaana hai.” As an actor, he believes such an approach shouldn’t dictate creative choices and highlighted the ongoing crisis in Bollywood driven by several factors. The Swatantrya Veer Savarkar actor highlighted how films have become increasingly formula-driven, focusing more on execution than filmmaking. He added that the industry has distanced itself from originality, operating within a confined space that leaves little room for creative experimentation. Randeep added that …
