Sunrisers batting might comes to the fore in big chase as Mumbai Indians continue to slide

Sunrisers batting might comes to the fore in big chase as Mumbai Indians continue to slide

Synopsis: Travishek’s 129-run stand and Heinrich Klaasen’s unbeaten 65 powers SRH to 6-wicket win over MI. Exactly a month ago, the Mumbai Indians won their first IPL 2026 match at home – a six-wicket victory over Kolkata Knight Riders. The great start raised early hopes about another tilt at the title. One month later, the five-time champions slumped to their sixth loss of the season, losing to Sunrisers Hyderabad and further worsening their Playoff qualification chances. IPL 2026 had so far seen only one-half of the Abhishek Sharma-Travis Head combination succeed, with the Indian making all the running. But on Wednesday, against an MI attack in desperate need of a change in fortunes, it was Head’s time to shine under the bright lights and lay the ideal foundation for the 244-run chase. The Australians’ innings was one of brute force, but not chanceless as Naman Dhir dropped him on 2 off Trent Boult in the third over, and to make matters worse, the ball went for a six. He made the hosts pay for the …

Former Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina (Image: Reuters) Former Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has underscored India’s indispensable role in ensuring that her country does not “slip into a Pakistan-style hybrid regime,” warning that Dhaka risks political instability under the leadership of Muhammad Yunus. Speaking exclusively to CNN-News18’s Manoj Gupta, Hasina described India as Bangladesh’s “steadfast friend” and a key partner in preserving democratic stability in the region. “All we ask of India is to back ordinary Bangladeshis in their desire to choose their own government,” Hasina said, adding that India’s continued engagement would be crucial to “prevent Bangladesh from sliding into a Pakistan-style hybrid regime.” She stressed that India has long been Dhaka’s closest ally, and its priority remains a “stable, democratic regime in Bangladesh.” Since her departure from power, Hasina has remained vocal about her concerns over the trajectory of Bangladesh’s governance.

IIT placement rates slide, pays shrink as vaunted colleges reconcile with AI, changing job market

IIT placement rates slide, pays shrink as vaunted colleges reconcile with AI, changing job market

The overall placement rates at the 23 Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) fell from over 90% to just around 80% between 2021-22 and 2023-24, with the weighted average annual salaries reducing marginally from ₹23.45 lakh to ₹22.7 lakh, a HT analysis shows, with IIT administrators and faculty attributing the trend to an uncertain job market and high student expectations, although they insist that the overall placement scenario in the IITs is stable. Across IITs, officials and faculty members agree that the placement slowdown is driven more by changing market dynamics than by student capability. (FILE) The IITs are yet to release a consolidated report of their 2024-25 placement season. The seven IITs established between 1951 and 2001 — Kharagpur, Bombay, Madras, Kanpur, Delhi, Guwahati, and Roorkee — are classified as first generation IITs, and were the worst affected in terms of placement rates , seeing a dip of over 11 percentage points — from just above 90% in 2021-22 to 79% in 2023-24 — though their weighted average salaries (average pay adjusted for the number …

Behind BJP’s Winning Game In Maharashtra After Big Slide In Lok Sabha Polls

Behind BJP’s Winning Game In Maharashtra After Big Slide In Lok Sabha Polls

The assembly elections in Maharashtra have shed light yet again on the BJP’s resilience and successful strategising after a setback. The party has managed a successful course correction in the state where just a few months ago, it has slid massively in the Lok Sabha polls. From 28 seats in 2019, the party had managed to win only 13 seats this year — a situation that restricted its numbers in the Lok Sabha and for the first time since 2014, made it dependent on its allies for majority in the lower house. After Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra has the second highest number of MPs — 48. What worked for the BJP was a massive course correction that included a delicate balance of welfare measures for women, tribals, and other sections by the state government, more attention to candidates, and grassroots level campaign that they achieved after patching up the rift with ideological mentor Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh. The big catalyst here was the ‘Ladki Behen’ scheme under which the state government made cash transfers of Rs 1,500 …

Election Amid Congress’s Maharashtra Misery, Jharkhand Slide, Wayanad Is Saving Grace

Election Amid Congress’s Maharashtra Misery, Jharkhand Slide, Wayanad Is Saving Grace

New Delhi: Kerala’s Wayanad was the only bright spot for the Congress today as the Grand Old Party posted one of its worst performances in Maharashtra. In the Lok Sabha by-polls in Wayanad, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra not only filled her brother Rahul Gandhi’s shoes, she did it in spades, surpassing his 2024 record vote margin by noon.  Where Rahul Gandhi had a margin of 3.65 lakh votes in the Lok Sabha election held earlier this year, Ms Gandhi Vadra secured over 6.12 lakh votes, beating her nearest rival, CPM’s Sathyan Mokeri by over 4.1 lakh votes. But her overall votes were lower than that of Mr Gandhi  due to the low turnout.  The turnout in the seat, which has over 14 lakh registered voters, was around 65 per cent – down from the close to 74 per cent in the Lok Sabha polls held in April and much lower than the 80 per cent-plus turnout of 2019, when Mr Gandhi had made it the second seat he was contesting from.  After winning from Rae Bareilly …
