Selectors take tough call: Surya’s T20 exit like Virat, Rohit’s Test departure | Cricket News

Published by Webster

4 min readUpdated: Jun 3, 2026 10:53 PM IST Just three months after Suryakumar Yadav captained India to the T20 World Cup title in Ahmedabad, the 35-year-old has not only been removed as captain but is also unlikely to find a place in the squad when the selectors meet next. Though the decision may raise eyebrows, it goes with this selection committee’s trend of not letting things drift or shying away from making tough calls. Of late, Suryakumar has been in the middle of a slump. In the IPL, he managed just 10 sixes in 13 innings and was overshadowed by the young guns in terms of boundaries and strike rates. Even before the T20 World Cup at home earlier this year, Suryakumar was struggling to find big scores before he hit three fifties in the series against New Zealand to turn a corner. His batting during the World Cup was nothing to write home about. Even Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli were not spared when form deserted them. After the series loss in Australia …

For Surya’s team, a chance to extend India’s rule| India News

Published by Parlour News

We have been here before. India are through to the final of a World Cup. The opponent is from the Southern Hemisphere. The India captain plays for Mumbai Indians in the Indian Premier League. The match is being played at the Narendra Modi Cricket Stadium in Ahmedabad and the nation is in a frenzy. For Surya and his team, this match will be another chance to show that the lessons imparted by Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli have been learnt. And to be fair, neither this team nor its fans have forgotten the hurt of the 2023 ODI World Cup final when Australia skipper Pat Cummins had said he wanted to silence the crowd on the eve of the game and proceeded to do just that on match day. That silence doesn’t haunt this India team. But it certainly serves to inspire them. When asked, even as early as November 2025, which team he would like to face in a hypothetical final clash in the ICC T20 World Cup, skipper Suryakumar Yadav replied promptly: “Narendra …

3 min readFeb 27, 2026 12:12 AM IST With South Africa producing a nine-wicket demolition job against West Indies in the evening game in Ahmedabad, and India thrashing Zimbabwe by 72 runs in Chennai after that, Thursday turned out to be a perfect day for the Men in Blue as they moved one step closer to a semifinal spot in the T20 World Cup 2026. Here’s how a perfect day unfolded for India: Proteas’ dream start: Fresh from smashing Zimbabwe’s bowling attack all around the Wankhede Stadium, much was expected of the West Indies’ powerful batting lineup. But Kagiso Rabada pegged them back early to pick up two wickets in the third over. Within the first hour of play, WI were reduced to 83/7 with most of their big hitters back in the pavilion. India’s destiny: As Suryakumar Yadav walked out for the toss in Chennai, India’s scenarios became crystal clear. South Africa’s 9-wicket thumping of West Indies in Ahmedabad eliminated Net Run Rate scenarios and India knew they just had to turn up and …

5 min readFeb 5, 2026 08:16 PM IST The sentiment to get comfortable in the skin of domineering champions. Suryakumar Yadav’s T20 Team India has been urged not just to defend the crown Rohit, Virat, Hardik and Bumrah won at Barbados, but to now effectively keep the Cup home – given India is hosting. Speaking to The Indian Express about the promo campaign run by JioHotstar for the last one month, World Cup player of the final Deepti Sharma said, “Ek Cup aa gayaa hai, doosra jaane nahi denge. I’m very sure the team will work very hard for the Cup, and bring it home,” she said. The campaign might not have captured the imagination as much as the one before the Women’s World Cup where an ordinary fan of the men’s game is slowly persuaded to cheer as loudly for the women, but this one conceptualised by Atul Kattukaran and the creative team at the broadcasters, harps on not letting go of the bragging rights of being world champions. ‘ Indian women mounted a …

HM Amit Shah shuts Congress MP after criticism over Tejasvi Surya`s remarks

Published by Webster

During the Motion of Thanks to the President`s speech, BJP MP Tejasvi Surya`s challenge to the Congress caused uproar, inviting interruption from the Union Home Minister Amit Shah. Tejasvi Surya, during his address, criticised the Congress, stating that its government has never mentioned India`s civilisational ethos. He challenged Congress leaders to show any instance while reading from the previous President`s addresses. “Other than once during Swami Vivekanand`s 150th birth anniversary footnote, in 10 years of Congress rule, there is no mention of India`s culture, tradition, civilisational values and ethos. This shows their commitment to the country,” Surya alleged. “Meanwhile, in 2014, the Prime Minister promised to improve tradition and technology. The only one who has fulfilled that promise is PM Narendra Modi,” Surya added. Surya`s remarks met with immediate opposition from the Congress leaders, amid which Congress MP Hibi Eden rose to counter Surya. He said that PT Thomas, a former member of the Kerala Legislative Assembly, had talked “a lot” about Shri Narayan Gurudev, calling Surya`s remarks an insult to him. “PT Thomas has …

Prakambanam movie review: Ganapathi, Sagar Surya’s horror comedy is fun if you’re willing to overlook its problematic political undertones | Movie-review News

Published by Parlour News

Prakambanam movie review and rating: At a crucial moment, Russia-based exorcist Stanislavski (Rajesh Madhavan) proclaims, “I am going to break all conventional rules of exorcism,” reminding one of the OG psychiatrist Dr Sunny Joseph (Mohanlal) from Manichitrathazhu (1993). Frankly speaking, that’s kind of what director Vijesh Panathur has done in the horror comedy Prakambanam as well; he has broken the genre’s conventions to offer a trippy ride with a septuagenarian ghost. One of the fundamental things Vijesh and screenwriter Sreehari Vadakkan have done to ensure this, which has helped them quite a lot, is to throw logic out the window and just go with the flow, introducing and executing elements that sound and appear either funny or intriguing, thus preventing the movie from being weighed down by the clichés of horror comedy. Thanks to the makers’ conviction in their illogicality, these elements never appear out of place in Prakambanam and instead help it. Rukmini alias Chembakathamma (Mallika Sukumaran) is the matriarch of an elite Hindu family in northern Kerala. Although she is a staunch theist and …

Anatomy of Surya’s Intimidating India: match-winners in every corner | Cricket News

Published by Webster

The empire that Suryakumar Yadav has built is intimidating. On Sunday, they crushed a highly-competent New Zealand brigade with an infallible ruthlessness reminiscent of Australia’s white-ball domination at the turn of the century. On a flat deck, the multi-skilled bowling firm, without the regulars Arshdeep Singh and Varun Chakaravarthy, restricted the visitors to 153. In 45 minutes of an unfettered onslaught, in merely 10 overs, they wrapped up the game and series, kissed an early good night to the Guwahati crowd, and sung a sinister war-cry to those plotting to upset the World Cup defence. Beating this India requires a tremendous deal of skill, fortune and tenacity. Match-winners stare from every corner, even from the bench. Imagine someone as gifted as Shreyas Iyer ferrying drinks; or Shubman Gill condemned to the domestic field, or the luxury to ignore Mohammed Siraj and Yuzvendra Chahal. To defeat India, India has to defeat itself first. Nothing fazes them. A wicket of the first ball, no problem, no panic, no fuss. Ishan Kishan retorted with a pair of sixes …
