“The world is lauding…" which “world” is this exactly? The one on WhatsApp forwards?

Pakistan suddenly become global peacemaker is honestly wild. This is the same country that couldn’t stop bombing Afghanistan, even during Ramadan but now we’re supposed to believe it’s leading moral diplomacy?

And this attempt to lecture India on foreign policy while casually ignoring decades of regional instability linked to Pakistan is peak selective memory.

If you put your hands on me inappropriately. I will put your face on the internet.

A reporter should be able to do their job without being touched inappropriately.

Some of the comments on this post show where we stand as a society.
Blaming a woman when she is the one who had to go through such an incident.

Have some shame people. Or atleast a little bit of humanity.

From Novak, to Rafa. From one legend to another 🙌

Up two sets to love and dominating Novak Djokovic at the Australian Open. Then this happens. Extremely unfortunate.

Feel better soon, Lorenzo.

Big shocker.

Whatever the reason, very sad that it ended before Carlos could complete the Career Grand Slam.

Es muy difícil para mí escribir este post… Tras más de siete años juntos, Juanki y yo hemos decidido poner fin a nuestra etapa juntos como entrenador y jugador.

Gracias por haber hecho de sueños de niño, realidades. Empezamos este camino cuando apenas era un chaval, y durante todo este tiempo me has acompañado en un viaje increíble, dentro y fuera de la pista. Y he disfrutado muchísimo de cada paso contigo.

Hemos conseguido llegar a la cima, y siento que, si nuestros caminos deportivos tenían que separarse, debía ser desde ahí arriba. Desde el lugar por el que siempre trabajamos y al que siempre aspiramos llegar.

Son tantos los recuerdos que me vienen a la cabeza que quedarme solo con uno no sería justo. Me has hecho crecer como deportista, pero sobre todo como persona. Y algo que valoro muchísimo: he disfrutado del proceso. Me quedo con eso, con el camino recorrido juntos.

Ahora llegan tiempos de cambio para los dos, nuevas aventuras y nuevos proyectos. Pero tengo la certeza de que los afrontaremos de la manera correcta, dando lo mejor de nosotros, como siempre hemos hecho. Siempre sumando.

Te deseo lo mejor de corazón en todo lo que venga. Me quedo con la tranquilidad de saber que no nos hemos dejado nada por dar, que lo hemos puesto todo a disposición del otro.

Gracias por todo, Juanki! ❤️

With Samoa (and a certain Ross Taylor) starting their #T20WorldCup Asia/East Asia-Pacific Qualifiers campaign today, I'm thrilled to share my piece on Samoan cricket.

A wonderful story and I'm glad to be able to tell it 👇

[Guerilla Cricket #GCFromHome @guerillacricket]

On paper, Samoa are unlikely to come out of the Asia/East Asia-Pacific Qualifier with a World Cup spot despite heavyweight Ross Taylor's inclusion, but this team has shown the belief in the past to defy the odds, writes @AayushM 🇼🇸

A world record holder, a legend, and a dream!

With the Asia/East Asia-Pacific Qualifiers for the 2026 @T20WorldCup starting tomorrow, I'm thrilled to see my piece on contenders Samoa published on the amazing @guerillacricket website.

Do give it a read!

That innings from Ash Gardner coming in at 128/5 is a perfect example of how confident this Australian team is.

They never let pressure reflect in the way they do things.

Two of the best ODI knocks you'll see coming in the same match.

Beth Mooney and Smriti Mandhana, too good! 👏

No medal for Neeraj Chopra at the World Championships in Tokyo, also ending his run of Top-2 finishes in 26 consecutive tournaments.

An incredible streak and he will be back stronger!

Meanwhile, a highly memorable event for Sachin Yadav!

Good from her to apologize. But Townsend should have known much better in the first place after herself being on the receiving end of culturally insensitive and offensive remarks only a couple of weeks ago.

[The Tennis Letter @TheTennisLetter]

Taylor Townsend issues an apology for the comments she made about the Chinese buffet:

“I will be better.”

[Indian Tennis Daily (ITD) @IndTennisDaily]

Thanks for your post Sir @anandmahindra

You'd extended a helping hand to Yuki Bhambri 16 years ago, who recently made the 2025 US Open Doubles semi-final

Could we see you / @MahindraRise supporting Tennis players/ecosystem in India again?

It's a long shot, but we'd love to discuss it further. Awaiting your reply.

[Aayush Majumdar @AayushM]

So India seem to be easing Renuka Singh Thakur back in. But also, Kranti Goud couldn't be ignored given the brilliant form she's in. Amanjot Kaur (along with her batting prowess) will be back in the squad as well for the World Cup.

Loving the depth in this squad!
