Nudging 40, age appears to have become the defining metric of Rohit’s readiness. Not the runs or range of his batting. Rohit is the only opener to aggregate over 1000 runs since last year and is India’s highest run-scorer in ODIs since the 2023 World Cup. A run of five innings without a fifty was enough for conversations around retirement and succession to gather pace mid-way through this year. A cold snub when the selectors meet again for the next assignment in September cannot be ruled out. Rohit has not thrown in the towel yet. His blockbuster 34th century in the series decider against England at Lord’s last Sunday confirmed as much. But lost beneath India’s eventual 27-run defeat in a colossal 388 chase was …

To create the explosion, Tyagi’s team used a real train as a base, constructing the tanker with acrylic panels mounted on a metal frame. “Because acrylic melts into the air, that’s why we see fragments flying,” Tyagi said. “Sometimes, to give a real look, we have to use something artificial.” Also an arms specialist, the shelves at Tyagi’s warehouse in a Mumbai suburb are stacked with AK-47s, …
