Hardik Pandya makes extraordinary look like an everyday chore, taking India to 15-run thrilling win

In a game of multiple narratives, sterling cameos and comebacks within comebacks, the chief protagonist remained Hardik Pandya. The soul of India’s 15-run, series-sealing victory over England was the wisdom, the chutzpah and belief of Hardik Pandya. When the match wound up, maroon and red plumes from the firecrackers worming into the skies, the cameras converged on Pandya, who strolled with an air of indifference, as though his match-turning 53 was nothing special, but just an ordinary show. Perhaps, he has reached a stage of his career where routine match-defining acts don’t excite him. He has shaped the destiny of countless matches, won every accolade the shortest format could bestow over a cricketer and there is no dream that remains unfulfilled. He makes no fuss, inspires no needless ...

Harshit not a like-for-like replacement, says Buttler

Harshit Rana picked up 3/33 from his four overs. | Photo Credit: EMMANUAL YOGINI Jos Buttler felt that Harshit Rana’s inclusion as a concussion sub was not solely responsible for England’s loss in the fourth T20I here on Friday. The skipper, however, stressed that England disagreed with the decision to include Harshit in place of Shivam Dube.“It’s not a like-for-like replacement, we don’t agree with that. Either Dube has put on about 25mph with the ball, or Harshit has really improved his batting. I still think we should have gone on to win the match, but we disagree with the decision,” said Buttler. Buttler revealed that there was no consultation or information about the replacement. “As I came out to bat,...

How the elevation of Temba Bavuma unlocked a new dimension

If a book on South African cricket had to be penned down a couple of years ago, Temba Bavuma may have got no more than an honourable mention. He does have a poignant place in its tumultuous past, by virtue of shattering the glass ceiling as a black cricketer. When he made his Test debut in 2014, he became the first black batter to play for the Proteas. In 2021, he became the first black captain of the men’s team, earning the responsibility in the shortest format. These are seminal landmarks in a country with a notorious past of racial segregation, and one that continues to be burdened by complex socio-political realities. Strictly as a batter, however, his average in January 2023 read 34.53 after 54 Tests. He had just one century in eight years. Aesthetically, too, the diminutive ...

Letters to The Editor — February 1, 2025

INDIA bloc, political path The INDIA bloc was formed to stop the BJP’s advancement, which it did carry out rather successfully in the general election 2024. But, thereafter, the bloc’s relevance has begun to diminish owing to its internal dynamics (Opinion page – ‘Parley’, January 31). The results of the Maharashtra and Haryana elections showed that the BJP can still recover. What ails the alliance is the absence of a leader with a commanding political position. It is also a fact that there will be no strong Opposition in India until such time as the Indian National Congress regains its lost glory. The party has to revamp itself with new policies and agendas. Ravi Nair, Kollengode, Palakkad, Kerala Homoeopathy, tinctures I write this letter as a research scholar (Ayurve...

A pragmatic picture: On the Economic Survey 2024-25

Parliament’s Budget session has begun amid a significantly changed backdrop. India’s growth is seen faltering after four years of healthy post-pandemic growth, the stock markets are tumbling, the rupee is losing ground faster than expected, and the major drivers that have been spurring the economy — domestic demand and public sector capex — are sputtering, while private investments remain insipid. For context, the five years from 2019-20 to 2023-24 have seen government capex increase at a compounded annual growth rate of 16%, household investments by 12%, while corporate outlays were up only 6%, despite a steep tax rate cut for them. A slowdown in the well-moving economic levers is, thus, a cause for concern. That the new U.S. administration seems determined to upend global trade and taxat...
