Gulf oil tanker rates shatter records as Strait of Hormuz deal triggers a rush | World News

Published by Parlour News

4 min readNew DelhiUpdated: Jun 24, 2026 01:21 PM IST It’s a win for oil tanker operators as traffic through the Strait of Hormuz and the larger Gulf region resumed this week, news agency Reuters reported quoting shipping data and sources. Traffic through the vital energy route has remained modest since Iran lifted its effective blockade last week as it agreed to ⁠a 60-day ​ceasefire with the US, sources stated. Official talks to end the US-Iran war, however, continue. The number of ships passing through the strait now is only a fraction of the daily average of 125 — that existed before the conflict began on February 28 this year. Moreover, about 100 tankers are still stuck inside the Gulf with cargoes onboard, Reuters reported quoting market estimates. Shortage of vessels The situation has contributed to a shortage of available vessels even as Middle Eastern crude producers ⁠ramp up exports. Amid this shortage, the rates for hiring a tanker outside the Hormuz jumped to $190,500 a day from $106,500 a week ago, according to ship …

6 min readAhmedabadFeb 22, 2026 11:23 PM IST The crowd did not wait for the final moments. The second Hardik Pandya perished in the 15th over, they began to file out, like a receding blue wave. No inner whisper told them to turn back; they simply did not have the heart to witness the end notes of another depressing night in this arena. ARTICLE CONTINUES BELOW VIDEO On November 19, 2023, they suffered the ODI final heartbreak; the emotions were similar, in that South Africa had mercilessly dismantled them, outwitting and outmuscling them. A 76-run defeat, pursuing 188, offers no place to run and hide, little sympathy or consideration. What would rankle the most is that they surrendered in conditions resoundingly familiar to them, slow and sluggish surfaces where they once strangled opponents. But like the Test team that imploded on turners, the T20 counterparts crumble on anything, barring shirt-fronts. The cloak of invincibility lay ripped, they are not as condition or pressure-proof as they were perceived to be. A capitulation was lurking on the …

Punjab Kings Shatter All-Time IPL Record, Skipper Shreyas Iyer’s Fortunes Turn

Published by Webster

The best thing about time is that it changes. This phrase, often used by people to comfort their close and loved ones during times of distress, surely holds true for Punjab Kings (PBKS) and their captain Shreyas Iyer. From Kolkata to Mullanpur, PBKS, yet to lay hands on an Indian Premier League (IPL) title, provided fans with unpredictability, entertainment and an opportunity to be a part of two big milestones of league’s history. Last year at Eden Garden’s, in Kolkata, when Iyer was captaining KKR, his men were taken down brutally by a Jonny Bairstow-powered PBKS during a successful run-chase of 262 runs, the highest-ever run-chase in T20 cricket history. Now almost a year forward, Iyer stands at Mullanpur Stadium in Punjab with his coach Ricky Ponting, as a proud captain of a fighting, “never-say-die” PBKS unit, which defended 111 runs, the lowest-ever total in IPL history, showcasing a remarkable reversal of fortunes. For PBKS, both these victories came when they looked down and out, but forces of time made sure they got …
