Why are shooting, wrestling and badminton not part of the Commonwealth Games 2026?

Why are shooting, wrestling and badminton not part of the Commonwealth Games 2026?

Published by Webster

The Commonwealth Games has long been one of India’s most successful multi-sport events, offering athletes across disciplines a chance to compete for international medals. However, the 2026 edition in Glasgow will look very different from previous Games, with several major sports, including shooting, wrestling, badminton, cricket and hockey, missing from the programme. The decision has sparked concern among athletes and fans, particularly in India, where many of these sports have traditionally contributed a significant share of the country’s medal tally . Why are several Sports missing from Commonwealth Games 2026? The primary reason behind the reduced sports programme is cost management. The 2026 Commonwealth Games were originally awarded to the Australian state of Victoria. However, Victoria withdrew from hosting due to escalating expenses, leaving the Commonwealth Games Federation (CGF) searching for an alternative host. Glasgow eventually stepped in to stage the Games, but under a significantly leaner and more financially sustainable model. To keep costs under control, organisers have limited the Games to four existing venues located within a compact area of the city. As …

According to the actor, the makers had initially approached many popular actors, including Ranbir Kapoor. ‘They had asked Ranbir Kapoor’ Recalling the casting process, Saif told Variety India, “They had Deepika and Diana, but they couldn’t get a hero to play the part, probably because Veronica’s (played by Deepika) part is so delicious. I remember some names they asked. I think they had asked Imran Khan and they had asked Ranbir Kapoor. And they had asked a few people, and I said, ‘Okay, cool, I’ll do it.’ And I think they should all be very thankful I did. That’s my story. Yeah, because I had great fun. I love Homi. …

In a new video shared by the makers, Nolan described the movie as an “exciting challenge to take on.” In the latest promo of The Odyssey, Nolan said, “One of the things I like about shooting on location is that we are moving countries every couple of weeks, so it gives you incredible momentum.

Rohit Sharma becomes oldest Indian player to take part in an ODI

2 min readUpdated: Jun 13, 2026 05:32 PM IST Former India captain Rohit Sharma created history in the 1st ODI vs Afghanistan when he became the oldest India player to take part in a 50-over match on Saturday in Dharamsala. Rohit, who is currently aged 39 years and 44 days , leapfrogged Mohinder Amarnath who played an ODI when he was 39 years and 36 days. Rohit managed 61 runs in the last home series against New Zealand in January — three forced lofts, three soft dismissals in what felt like uncertain territory. Coupled with 283 runs in nine innings in the IPL season, it has only added fuel for the detractors. Judging the Rohit’s ODI heft solely by those returns would be preposterous. His boundary-hitting rhythm remained intact – 21 sixes and as many fours for Mumbai Indians this season. A factory line of fearless young openers in the IPL has pushed the limits of aggression. Dislodging Rohit in his most sublime format will still take some doing. The original ‘Hitman’ – world cricket’s …
