SKY climbs back to his show-stopping best at the Wankhede

At the Wankhede on Sunday night, the finish came with a flourish. With M.S. Dhoni, the man who immortalised picture-perfect climaxes at this venue with that shot over long-on on the night of the 2011 ODI World Cup final, stationed behind the stumps, Suryakumar Yadav dispatched Matheesha Pathirana for two consecutive sixes to complete a nine-wicket trouncing of Chennai Super Kings inside 16 overs.Pathirana, armed with searing pace and a slingy action, had erred a trifle with his execution, dishing out deliveries that were a few inches short of the blockhole. It was enough for the 34-year-old, standing deep in his crease with his front leg out of the way, to exercise a flamboyant swing of the bat and clear the extra-cover and long-off boundaries with a touch of trademark swagger. He fini...

Happy how Rohit never changes approach, says Jayawardene

Rohit Sharma was in full flow against CSK. | Photo Credit: EMMANUAL YOGINI Suryakumar Yadav was at his marauding best on Sunday night. But it was the return of Rohit Sharma’s form with the willow that made the Mumbai Indians camp happiest at the Wankhede Stadium. After all, Rohit had had a quiet – to say the least – Indian Premier League campaign until the big game against Chennai Super Kings. In six innings, he had tallied only 82 runs and had had very little impact despite being used as an Impact Player for most of the season. “Rohit doesn’t bat (so much) in the nets, but there is a different preparation to how he goes about it and for him,” Mahela Jayawardene, the MI head coach, said after Rohit was ...

When the late Pope Francis wrote about a Pontini goal to a journalist

It’s not a surprise that Pope Francis, the first Latin American leader of the Roman Catholic Church who passed away on Monday, was a football fan. When he was elected Pope in 2013 the Argentinian football club San Lorenzo had tweeted a photo of him holding up the club’s crest. He was a card-carrying member of the club, with San Lorenzo ID No. 88,235. Now, after his death, a journalist from Argentina’s newspaper Clarin has shared a letter written to him by Pope about football. In 2013, when he met the national teams of Italy and Argentina, the Pope had talked about a goal from San Lorenzo’s Rene Pontini in 1946. “I remember going to the stadium as a child, in particular the 1946 season. I went to see the match with my parents and I was amazed by Pontoni’s goal,” the Pope had said. Stor...

Rishabh Pant is struggling this IPL but is his T20 India career over?

Let’s get to Rishab Pant’s IPL numbers straightaway: 0, 15, 2, 2, DNB, 21, 63, 3. It isn’t an alarming cause of concern to undergo forensic analysis of his batting. It is T20 cricket and a tournament like the IPL is the beast amongst it all, where a high-risk approach is the order of the day and Pant being the most adventurous of all Indian batsmen, he is bound to have such scores. But Pant’s white-ball issues aren’t a surprise. When Pant walked into India’s T20 World Cup squad last year, behind the scenes not everyone were convinced about his spot. In the months he spent recovering from a car crash, India had flirted between KL Rahul, Sanju Samson and Ishan Kishan. That none of them came close to nailing the spot meant, for the World Cup in the US and Caribbean, Pant’s X-factor was deemed...

Harvard pays for defiance as US plans to pull $1 billion: What’s the price of academic freedom in America? – The Times of India

हार्वर्ड यूनिवर्सिटी (summer.harvard.edu) Harvard University, an institution integral to American academia, has long stood as a bastion of intellectual independence and student aspirations. Now, it finds itself engulfed in a high-stakes political standoff. The United States government has signaled its intent to withdraw an additional $1 billion in federal grants and research contracts, escalating its offensive against what it perceives as ideological defiance.

It can feel a little strange — and maybe even concerning — but according to Dr Gaurav Mehta, a consultant in Gastroenterology and Hepatology at Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani Hospital in Mumbai, it’s not always something to panic about. “Seeing undigested food in your stool from time to time is actually pretty common,” says Dr Mehta. “Especially if you’ve eaten foods that are high in fibre, like beans or corn. These types of foods have tough outer shells that don’t break down easily during digestion.” Another surprisingly common reason for spotting food remnants? Eating too quickly.
